After losing his son to a rare genetic condition, a scientist (Michael Eklund) begins work on a regenerative drug that, unfortunately, yields terrible consequences.

John DeFore

The Hollywood Reporter

An underheated mad-scientist tale cares more about emotional baggage than thrills.

Behind The Lens

Errors Of The Human Body is a thought-provoking, slow burn thriller that speaks to the moral conscience within each of us when it comes to science versus ethics and playing God.

The film eventually reveals that it has no interest in delivering the thrills or chills that its foreboding first half painstakingly constructs, instead settling for mediocre melodrama.

Trespass

As smart as it is suspenseful and as contemplative as it is creepily effective, the feature swarms with the potential of its competent helmer and commanding lead actor, even as it drifts towards an intriguing conclusion.

Film Thrills

The film itself is quiet, as is Eklund's performance, but the research they are conducting, and the beautiful space of the lab, always give you something to keep your mind occupied.

Aaron Yap

Flicks (AU, NZ, UK)

Benefits from a riveting lead performance by the piercing-eyed Michael Eklund, who brings a brooding, destructive impulsiveness to his geneticist Geoff Burton.

Rated: 4/5

So boring and slow-moving that my thoughts kept wandering and I couldn't follow anything. The descriptions of "intense" or "thriller"... not accurate at all.

A little slow. But science-people will enjoy it. On the flipside, for fellow scientists/biomeddies/meddies, four words: autosomal dominant or recessive ??? That will determine the believability of the ending ... I struggled honestly. Nice concept though.

A cerebral, beautifully acted piece of dramatic science fiction. I feel as if the audience score is being tamped down by those who might have wanted a riff on Alien or another infected zombie flick. Errors is, thankfully, something much more unique, refined, and resonant.

Competição entre cientistas libera um vírus que provoca mutações genéticas. O filme coloca algumas possibilidades reais em discussão, mas dá muitos pulos e fica difícil acompanhar.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
