SLIFF 2025 Review: “The Plague” – Charlie Pollinger’s Ferocious Look at Boyhood, Bullying, and the Birth of Monsters Charlie Pollinger’s The Plague is a brutal, beautifully observed story of boyhood, cruelty, and the unseen trauma that turns boys into monsters.

One of SLIFF 2025’s most haunting films, The Plague dives deep into the cruelty and chaos of boyhood. Smart, brutal, and unforgettable. #ThePlague #SLIFF2025 #CharliePollinger #IndieFilm #HorrorMoviesUncut wix.to/APTxpHC
