Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
Luecarou What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
BA_Harrison The Dead Undead. What the hell does that mean? Dead is no longer living, and undead means technically dead but reanimated. So does that mean that 'the dead undead' are the undead who have died again? If so, doesn't that mean that they are just dead?Beats me! As it happens, the dumb title isn't the worst thing about this film. It all starts out promisingly enough with a group of young vacationers (three hot babes, two guys) arriving at a strangely deserted motel, the girls immediately opting to get into their bikinis and go swimming, but goes rapidly downhill when the group is attacked by zombies with vampire like traits. It turns out that these are ZVs—zombie vampires—vampires that have turned into zombies after feeding on bovine blood infected with mad cow disease.Hot on the heels of these horror hybrids are a highly trained and well-armed team of 'good' vampires (led by Luke Goss) who hope to deal with the problem before it spirals out of control. Cue lots of repetitive action, plenty of random gunfire, much macho posturing, crap CGI blood, stunt-men leaping from hidden trampolines onto the roofs of cars, dreadful flashbacks to pad out the running time (with two of the most unconvincing Vikings imaginable), truly awful acting, a pointless cameo from Forrest J. Ackerman, and Vernon Wells (of Mad Max 2 fame) passing time between signing autographs at movie conventions.3.5 out of 10, generously rounded up 4 to IMDb.
Tony Heck "When you guys are done with the social-hour, maybe you can let us know and we can all go look for the bad guys." When a group of "good" vampires become turned in to zombies they begin to look for anyone they can find to eat. When a group of vampire soldiers begin to fight them off they do all they can to hide the fact that they are vampires. The only problem is that a group of human kids out camping are now caught in the middle of it all. If you are still interested in watching it after that synopsis then I guess nothing I can say will stop you. This movie is bad, bad. Acting is bad, like really bad. On the other hand there is nudity, so there is that I guess. If you are a hard core zombie movie fan then this may appeal to you. I am not really a fan, and to be honest I couldn't actually make it all the way through. So if the ending is great someone tell me. Overall, not good at all. To me at least. I give it a D+.
Nyx_Selene I don't know what this movie is trying to be, but what it isn't, is good.The story is that in a town of cow's-blood-drinking vampires, mad cow decease has started spreading, resulting in a gang of zombie vampires. The not-zombie vampires chase after them, to kill them. A couple of teenagers end up in the middle of it, of course.These teenagers will start out screaming over a mouse running over the floor, but will later show remarkable complacency about blood spraying from gunshot wounds. When the owner of the motel they're staying at starts acting weird, one of the boys in the group even grabs a shotgun from his trunk at goes on to shoot complete strangers in the head, without so much as making a face.When the vampires show up, they turn out to be average, middle-aged guys who've filed down their fangs to blend in. One of them even writes an advice column in a magazine - can you believe it? Their weapons of choice are fully automatics with too little ammo, but the gun shooting scenes nevertheless drag out for so long that they end up being sleep inducing. Nothing special happens during these "action" scenes, except that a bunch of middle-aged guys shoot their guns a lot.In the end, vampire Jack and some blond girl are the only survivors. A new group of not so sissy vampires show up and save them, and one of them - some old friend of Jack's - says that he's found out how to revive fallen vampires. Everyone is happy about this - even the blond girl, despite the fact that all of her friends died painful, horrible deaths.
Bobby Raja (acapulsky) I watched this movie last night out of boredom. The movie has a pretty decent story line but loads of flaws e.g. if they had focused more on the ZV's(zombie vampires), as they are referred to in the movie, rather than on the guns and bullets used it would have turned out to be much better. The story starts interesting but after 10 minutes into the film quickly diminishes and you end up wondering when it would end(not a great sign). Talking about the cast, I remember Luke Goss from Blade II(Nomak) and Hellboy II(Prince Nuada), both roles were played extremely good especially in Hellboy. He had really good action scenes in both movies and I really enjoyed the ones in Hellboy II..but having said that, the action sequences in this movie are pretty bad. There is a part where Luke gets to fight a whole bunch of ZV's...well I could not believe it was the same guy from what I had witnessed in the other mentioned movies. There are parts in the movie where the director took the liberty of showing how each one of the good guys became vampires, starting from vikings, going through the jungles in Vietnam and ending up in the wild west. I found it pretty funny but it was a good effort and with some good visual effects(which BTW the movie lacks) would have made a good impact on the movie. With a bigger budget this movie could have got somewhere but as it is it will not be ending up in my collection and I would not recommend it to anyone. Watch it if you are really bored and don't have anything better to do.
