VIRAL - Virus Outbreak Horror Drama

I have seen the poster of this movie in the "coming soon" section at the Cinema 21 website for a while. It came as a surprise to me when I saw a tweet on Saturday that the movie was already playing since the day before. As my wife and I had no plan to watch any movies on Sunday, we decided to see this one yesterday on a weekday. The movie did not get a lot of hype and I honestly don't think there was any trailer I saw previously, so I only know the very brief synopsis from the website. Without further ado, below is the background story before I continue with my views of the movie.

Brief Story Line

Emma (Sofia Black D'Elia - Project Almanac) was a good high school student, loves biology and just moved in new town and new environment. She seemed to have a crush on another student named Evan (Travis Tope - Independence Day: Resurgence) and was being teased by her best friend Gracie about it. Meanwhile there was a bit information in the background (news in television, or narration on the radio or video shared in internet) about some virus/parasites outbreak in China and seemed to be spreading around.
