Yummy

Two young lovers head to a shabby hospital in Eastern Europe seeking cosmetic work. She wants a breast reduction, he just wants to be supportive. Her mother tags along for a long promised facelift, turning a simple procedure into a family affair. While wandering through a deserted wing, the boyfriend stumbles on a young woman strapped to an operating table, the subject of an experimental rejuvenation project. He frees her, thinking only to help, not realizing that his action unleashes a viral outbreak. The virus spreads through doctors, patients, and even the mother in law, mutating people into bloodthirsty threats and turning the hospital into a chaotic obstacle course.

Directed by Lars Damoiseaux from a story by Eveline Hagenbeek, Yummy arrived in 2019 as a Belgian horror comedy that blends gross out humor with offbeat suspense.

Box office data for Yummy is not publicly disclosed; the film had a modest regional release and fits the European genre tradition of small scale crowd-pleasers.

Reception and themes: Critics note the movie balances a gory comic tone with a quiet satire of vanity and the medical industry. It favors practical effects, brisk pacing, and a gleefully chaotic mood over serious scares. The humor comes from improvisational banter and over the top set pieces that keep the pace light even as the body horror escalates.
