Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a science-fiction Horror film: "Larva"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
In the small town of Host, Missouri, four teenagers sneak out late at night to a field to tip cows
However, instead of cows, they see a bull
The girls dare the two boys to tip the bull, but they get scared
The girls persuade them to go through with the bull tipping, by promising them lap dances
With renewed determination, the two creep towards the bull,
but they discover that it's already dead
One of the boys inspects the dead body,
and is mystified by something crawling underneath the bull's skin
The teenagers get spooked by this, and run from the field as fast as they can
A huge parasite emerges from the bull's belly
Morning comes, and the newly-arrived veterinarian in Host is hanging up his new office signage
He enters his office, which is filled with half-unpacked boxes strewn around the room
He opens one of the drawers, and sees the previous vet's files marked 'confidential'
He browses through the papers, which detail analyses and observations on an unknown experiment
The vet loses interest, and throws the files into the wastebasket
The new veterinarian drives out to a farm
The farmer is surprised at his appearance, since he was expecting the old vet
The man explains that the old vet has retired, and he replaced him
The farmer then quickly explains that he found one of his cows dead,
and the other sick, which is a strange occurrence because they were healthy before
There is also no disease outbreak in the area, that could be strong enough to kill his cows
The farmer shows the vet the sick cow, and he administers an anti-parasitic medicine,
and takes a sample of the parasites from the cow for further study
The farmer also reveals that the local meat processing corporation, Host Tender Meats,
gives all the town's farmers free feed,
in exchange for selling their cattle to the company exclusively
Back in his office, the vet studies the parasites under the microscope
He knocks a beaker off the table and to the floor with his elbow
He picks up the broken pieces of glass, and cuts his hand
His blood drops onto the table, and he steps away to clean his wound
Unbeknownst to him, one of the parasites senses his blood, and crawls toward it
It engorges itself on his blood; and it begins to increase in size
The vet returns to the table, and is astounded at the sight of the enlarged parasite
He calls his friend who has a lab,
and tells him about the mysterious parasite he initially thought was a common liver fluke,
but is not acting like one
His friend is wary, because the vet has a history of going after conspiracies;
and it almost got him fired last time
The vet eventually convinces his friend to take a look at his sample,
and promises to send him the specimen first thing in the morning
Across town, an old woman's dog goes missing
She looks for it in the woods surrounding her house, and finds its dead body all bloody and torn up
A huge parasite jumps from the tree, and attacks her
The vet attends a town fundraiser the next morning
The event is hosted by Host Tender Meats; and its owner steps up on stage to speak
He thanks the farmers for participating in the clinical trials for the company's new feed,
formulated with special medicines
He announces that the cows, who are now eating this feed,
will grow even bigger and produce the tastiest beef for export
He rewards them with a 12% price increase per head, on the cattle the company buys from them
After the speech, they continue with a town potluck
that showcases steaks and burgers made with the beef from the cows,
that are grown with the special feed
The vet meets a department head from Host Tender Meats during the potluck
The man notices that the vet is a vegetarian,
and jokes that people in town might find that offensive
The two sit down; and the vet learns that the man is the head of research and development;
and he tells him about the strange parasites he discovered
The department head just shrugs, and doesn't say anything
He noticeably stops eating his burger too
A well-dressed woman arrives at the fundraiser and approaches the owner; so they can talk
She is a lawyer for Host Tender Meats;
and she warns him that the board of directors wants him gone,
because of his deficiencies as the head of the company
It is revealed that the owner is keeping the board in the dark about his clinical trials;
and he is desperately hoping that the new meat will generate an increase in company profits,
and so he'll keep his position
They are interrupted by the department head, who introduces the new veterinarian
The owner is shocked, and curtly greets the vet
He singles out the department head, so they can talk privately
He angrily asks why no one told him that the new vet arrived in town,
two weeks earlier than the agreed-upon date
The department head answers that no one knew the vet would arrive earlier;
and he also shares that the man is already suspicious of Host Tender Meats, just like his predecessor
Meanwhile, the vet and the lawyer are left alone
He nervously asks her to eat with him at his table, and then flirts with her
The lawyer reciprocates this banter
One of the men in the potluck chases after a wayward frisbee, that then lands on a nearby stream
He tries to retrieve the frisbee, but falls in the water instead
A parasite bites him, and causes him to have a heart attack
Chaos ensues, and a crowd gathers as the man is rescued
The town doctor arrives and tries to resuscitate the man
The vet then notices a dead animal lying near the stream,
and surmises that one of the parasites must have attacked the man, and caused his heart attack
The vet relays his suspicions to the doctor at the hospital, but the doctor dismisses his concerns
He does agree to test the man for parasites, but only after a few days
The vet drops by the man's room, and sees that he is still unconscious
The vet leaves, and doesn't see a parasite travel from the man's nostrils,
into his mouth, and finally down his throat
He returns home and gets a call from his friend, who reports that the parasite sample he sent,
is unlike any other identified parasite in the world
He adds that its structure is like the common liver fluke, but this variation has mutated
With the vet's suspicions confirmed,
he tells his friend that he is going to quarantine the town's cattle
The next thing he does is to call a town meeting
He discovers that almost all farmers in the area have been experiencing problems with their cattle
He then explains his theory that the new feed provided by Host Tender Meats,
is causing the mutation of common parasites; and it's now infecting all their cattle
The farmer he visited earlier backs him up on this,
saying that the company only cares about their profits
He almost convinces the town to believe him, until the lawyer arrives with the owner
The lawyer reveals to the town that the vet lost his license
to practice in North Carolina and Virginia,
after exposing the alleged algae infecting a town's water supply
That particular town lost its main livelihood because of the vet's accusations
This must be why the vet quickly took the job in Host,
and why his friend at the lab was wary of his theories
The vet loses his credibility after the revelation; and the townspeople leave the meeting
Later that night, the farmer calls the vet and asks him to go to his place as fast as he can,
because one of his sick cows is about to burst
The vet arrives and attends to the sick cow
Suddenly, the two hear something scurrying above them
A giant parasite flies out of nowhere, and tries to attack the vet; but the farmer shoots it
The vet inspects the parasite carcass,
and realizes that it can swell up to four sizes larger than it already is,
killing any host it will latch on to, including humans
The lawyer arrives at the hospital to talk to the wife of the man,
who had the mysterious heart attack
She assures her that Host Tender Meats will be shouldering the man's hospital fees
But the wife sees through the company's ploy,
and she tells the lawyer that her husband worked there for 10 years;
and he never had a salary raise while the owner just got richer and richer
The man finally wakes up from his coma
At first, he seems to be fine
However, blood begins to spurt from his orifices, and he starts shaking
Something is protruding from his stomach, and violently breaks free: a gigantic parasite
The man dies; and the vet and the farmer arrive at his hospital room,
just in time to see the parasite escape through the air ducts
The pair chase the parasite through the hospital
They end up following it to the basement tunnels, where the morgue is located
The parasite attacks the farmer, and the vet kills it
Soon after, The owner and his family are having dinner in their luxurious manor across town,
when the phone rings
One of his employees is concerned about the threat the vet poses to the company;
and the owner assures him that he's got it under control
Back at the hospital,
the vet and the farmer watch the injured and dead victims of the parasite attack earlier,
get wheeled away
They realize that the parasite could have possibly infected these people
They leave the hospital, with the intent to come up with a solution to eradicating the infestation;
and the lawyer comes with them
The owner calls the sheriff,
and orders him to lock the vet and the lawyer up, since they know too much
The police station is getting overwhelmed with calls from panicked town citizens,
who are seeing the parasites all over town
The owner drives to Host Tender Meats' office,
and is confronted by the department head,
who's feeling guilty about what they are doing to the town
He blames the owner for going forward with the clinical trials,
even though the medicine they used was not completely safe
He makes the owner look through the microscope,
and see the proof that the parasites originated from the meat of cows
who were fed with the special feed
Unperturbed, the owner orders the department head to destroy all files
they have on the clinical trials
so the parasites can't be traced back to the company
The vet, farmer, and lawyer arrive at the farmer's place,
where he shows them his impressive gun and explosives collection
However, the sheriff arrives; and the lawyer and vet come out to greet him
He arrests the two, and hauls them inside a car
The farmer is left inside the barn; and the sheriff comes to find him
They can't find the farmer; so they leave
At the station, the lawyer and the vet are locked up in jail cells
The vet taunts the sheriff, and asks him if he's scared that the parasites are already inside him
The owner is shredding the incriminating documents, when the department head tells him that he quits
The owner tries to assure him that things will blow over soon;
but the department head is too overwhelmed by his conscience
The owner then writes him a check, and tells him to leave town, never come back,
and never utter a word of what happened in Host
He takes the check and leaves
Back at the owner's house, his wife tucks their son into bed
A little while later, her son begins to scream, and call for her
He tells her that there's a monster hiding in his closet
She thinks that it's just her son being a scared child,
and proceeds to open his closet to show him that there's no one inside
She turns to her son, and sees that a huge parasite is devouring him
She then makes an earth-shattering scream
At the station, one of the sheriff's men begins to convulse; and a parasite emerges from his chest
The farmer arrives, and shoots the parasite
He convinces the sheriff to release the vet and the lawyer, so they can finally stop the parasites
The vet explains to the sheriff that the special feed made by Host Tender Meats,
is the reason why common liver flukes began mutating inside the town's cattle
The lawyer then reveals that the medicine used in the clinical trials, wasn't approved yet;
but the owner rushed its use, so he could get the new meat into the market faster
The department head drives out of town, but is attacked by a parasite hiding in his car
The owner passes by, and sees the parasite feasting on his dead body
The owner arrives home and calls for his wife
He hears sounds coming from his son's room, so he grabs his shotgun
He discovers his wife's dead body and blood splattered all over the room
He goes outside, and sees his son's corpse
The owner gets cornered by a gigantic parasite, and eventually dies
The three concoct a plan to drive a truck pouring fertilizer onto the road,
to lure all the larva into the sewers,
where the farmer will trigger dynamites to kill all the parasites in one fell swoop
They are helped by the sheriff; and the plan goes into motion
The parasites start trickling into the sewers; and the group struggles to find a way out
The sheriff gets eaten by a parasite, and the remaining three finally exit the sewers,
and detonate the explosives, killing all the larvae
Eventually, The town is saved, but hundreds of people died in the aftermath of the events
Host Tender Meats gets implicated in the ensuing scandal
The movie ends with the vet visiting the lawyer in the hospital,
after she sustained an injury on her arm after fending off the parasites
She asks him if it's over now; and he says yes
However, things may be far from over,
as the camera zooms into the lawyer's stomach in the last scene,
suggesting that a parasite is living inside her
