The trailer for Steven Soderbergh’s thriller CONTAGION certainly didn’t pull any punches. But then, a movie about a deadly worldwide biological threat is obviously going to put some people in the morgue with liquified innards. No matter how famous they are.

The poster for the impending disaster is below, and while it doesn’t reveal much of anything specific, it shows that… well, pretty much the whole planet is doomed to a horrifying end. Geneva, we hardly knew ya. (Literally — most Americans probably don’t know where it is.)

CONTAGION follows the rapid progress of a lethal airborne virus that kills within days. As the fast-moving epidemic grows, the worldwide medical community races to find a cure and control the panic that spreads faster than the virus itself. At the same time, ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart.
