The Strain (2014)

The plot is given by the sudden spread of a virus that turns people into vampires. The one assigned to investigate the problem and stop the epidemic that threatens to engulf the entire Earth is dr. Ephraim Goodweather, head of The Canary team Disease Control Center in New York. Fortunately, this one has a combat robot next to it.

Newly created vampires are the consequence of a parasitism that changes the genetic structure of the host (Man) and, accordingly, the appearance. The new creatures are immortal, capable of telepathy, fear water and have ancient leaders from whom they receive telepathic messages, regardless of distance. They can only be killed by the sun’s rays, or a source of ultraviolet rays. Silver causes them great pain and even death, which can also occur by beheading. Traditional protections: crosses, holy water, garlic, have no effect on them.
