In the run-up to this week's premiere of the highly-acclaimed horror/action feature Afflicted, we've got four exclusive new stills to give you the fever, so to speak...

Told through the cameras of a pair of globe-hopping best friends, Afflicted accompanies the travelers as their adventure takes a horrifically wrong turn following an encounter in Paris with a mysterious woman. As one of the men is consumed by an unknown and bizarre illness which begins transforming his body, what began as a vacation video soon becomes a grim document of their terrifying hunt for answers.

Written, directed and co-starring Derek Lee and Clif Prowse, the film has already won multiple awards at Fantastic Fest (where it was screened and reviewed by FEARNET's Scott Weinberg), the Toronto International Film Festival and the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival.

Afflicted makes its US premiere this Friday, April 4th at select theaters and On Demand.

You can learn more about it at the film's official site and Facebook page, and be sure to check out the trailer below!
