To some, it’s murder. to them, it’s just work. The Troma Team is proud to present Robert Larkin’s intense sci-fi thriller Viral Assassins. In the not so distant future, a terminal disease will make cancer look like the common cold. The government’s solution to this epidemic is to make carrying the disease a capital crime, punishable by death through a team of highly trained assassins. This not only lowers the risk of the disease spreading but also greatly lowers health costs for the average Joe. But what happens if the government becomes infected? The only hope for a vaccine is trapped within the diseased body and mind of a government lab technician. Unfortunately, the government hires their most dedicated and trigger-happy assassin to eliminate her. Will the assassin uphold the government’s heinous order, or will he jeopardize his own life, reputation and health insurance by eliminating her?  Combining science fiction and scientific reality, Viral Assassins features a great deal of harrowing truths. It is an Orwellian handbook for the future that should be witnessed by anyone with a concern over media manipulations and government cover-ups.

"Surprisingly thoughtful...strong script, interesting scenarios...It's not your typical Troma movie" - Chris Kaynes,
