Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Blistering performances.
This is one of the worse B films i have ever seen. I could do better with a few 1980's camcorders and a few vcr's for editing. It does not even deserve 1 star. It is lame and without music or sound affects to support the movie. I would think the producers have put a big black mark on their chances of getting support and monies for future attempts.
Within the first 5 minutes I was struck with arrogance. You know how some movies begin with a quote or piece of poetry by some famous scholar or writer? Well this one starts with a quote, from one of the movies creators. Then the movie really begins, a generic zombie film revolving around a group of survivors and their valiant efforts to survive the movies 90 minute runtime. Full of the usual cliches but taking them considerably too far especially the one about the "Bad apple" of the group who jeopardises the safety of the others.It gets stupid, we have a character who continues to be a liability from stealing to sabotaging to straight up murdering and yet our "Heroes" do little to prevent him from carrying on with his behaviour.The bad acting, poor sound editing and writing which several times throughout the film made me cringe. It defies belief just how stupid this film is and to be clear I watch a lot of hyper low budget zombie affairs and this is one of the worst.Even the most hardcore zombie fan will struggle with this embarassment.The Good:NopeThe Bad:Laughable actingAwful writingA hero simply called Dave, really?The god monologue is one of the dumbest things I've ever seenThings I Learnt From This Movie:I would have shot Derek in the face, twiceIf a man falls down it's best to talk for a while then shoot him in the head to save him from getting bittenEven a person killed via a shot to the head will rise as a zombie
I'll be completely honest. I don't think this movie gets a lot of credit. It wasn't a horrible movie, but it wasn't also the best.Acting was pretty atrocious though. Some of the worst acting ever. Even some of the lines were extremely bad.Some of the characters I actually liked though. Though many were disposable.There are movies that have low quality cameras that really add to the grittiness and the mood the movie. It's not for every movie, but I think it worked for this one. It's more believable in my opinion. I saw that "comedy" was added to the description of this movie. Really? It wasn't intentional. Overall, I really liked this movie and didn't think it was that bad. There are MUCH MUCH worse movies out there. Take the good with the bad.
CHIM CHIM the Video Monkey ([email protected]) says "That Dave Francis, writer/director, really knows his zombie stuff." Man, who are you trying to kid here ?!?! This was by far the worst zombie movie I have ever seen !! And I hate the fact that the creators of this movie pretend to be someone else and get on here and give this movie 10 stars. I don't even know if I wanna give this poor excuse of a film any stars at all.Okay, first of all: The acting, GOD AWFUL. Who the hell casted these nobodies, Helen Keller ?!?! The location was crap too. The movie is supposed to take place in a post-war ravaged world, right ? Gee, never would've guessed it what with the cars passing by in the background on a freeway.I am not gonna blame the budget whatsoever on why this movie was crap. Hell, George Romero made a movie with less, and look how great he is. And that's another thing, the script sucks because all it did was rip off Romero.And another thing that's kinda lame is the fact that the zombies only come out at night. I will admit, it's something a little new with the zombie genre, but the fact is that it makes the zombies less threatening, so that sucks !Okay, and get this, the bad guy, Derek, he keeps screwing people over and he even kills a girl, and the "leader" of the group, Dave, lets him go. Okay, if i were Dave, I would've shot him in both kneecaps and let those zombies eat them. AND WHERE THE HELL DID ALL OF THE OTHER CHARACTERS COME FROM ?!?!?!?! God, I wish Dave Francis would just give up on film-making, but no ! He's making a sequel. He better get it right this time.So I understand that someone died during post-production, now I'm sorry for this loss, but seriously, don't use that as an excuse to pass off this movie as a good B-Movie. This was an F-Movie, all the way ! 1/10 ... though it deserves a -10000 / 10 !
