Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Andy Van Scoyoc Most zombie movies of today are horrible at best...abysmal at worst. When you have such low expectations of a film, anything not horrible or abysmal, suffices.Some nice twists, some cliches. Typical CGI effects you'd expect from a SYFY Channel movie, but the makeup wasn't half bad. Don't pay to watch this movie, but if you can catch it for free, like I did, it's worth a watch.DEFINITELY not the worst I've ever seen.
Michael Ledo Zombie movies follow a basic formula because they are metaphoric of life. A group of people with brains seek out a safe utopian world free from the unthinking zombies who blindly follow the crowd trying to kill the idealists. There are 2 types of zombies. There are the foot dragging raised from the dead zombies and the faster moving viral zombies. In this regard, the film has met the basic requirements for a decent zombie film.A group of survivors are headed toward the island of Catalina. Some die along the way. Some are added along the way as in any good zombie film. Why they choose to venture on foot rather than drive a heavily shielded vehicle, I don't know. The special effects were inexpensive CG critters, fires, and blood squirts. In these types of films it is the characters and dialouge that make the production stand out from other low budget movies. In that regard, this one failed to stand out. Ving Rhames needed a personality. Lesley-Ann Brandt had dead deliveries and wore jeans that never got dirty. Like John Wayne movies, multiple zombies die when one bullet is fired. The other film that goes by this name is far worse.Parental Guide: No f-bombs, sex, or nudity
jlthornb51 Gifted director Nick Lyon has brought to the screen one of the most effective films of this type in decades. Much more than a motion picture about a "zombie apocalypse," this is an existential study of humanity facing the end of life as we know it. The characterizations are beautifully written and stunning played by an exceptional cast, with Ving Rhames and Taryn Manning particularly superb. Uniquely lensed on location in Los Angeles, the cinematography is breathtaking and gives the film a powerfully dark, murky look that helps create an overwhelming atmosphere of terror and dread. In many ways, the overall theme is much like something from Greek mythology and reflects a literate attitude and sensibility unusual in any film, let alone a horror movie. A tremendously moving, frightening, and thoughtful exercise in finding meaning when much of life's significance has been diminished by fate.
flipsidemaster i came into this movie with extremely low expectations. this movie isn't that bad compared to the awful stuff syfy usually puts out. this movie plays out just like a video game, moving from safe house to safe house. the characters are all video game characters: the big black guy with a sledge hammer, the ethnic girl with the katana, the leader with a bat and a gun, the punk girl with the spiky hair rocking a bow and arrow. they have to fight waves of zombies and there is a mini-boss that they must find a chainsaw to defeat and then a final boss to beat the game. make up was good in the beginning but by the end it was people in masks. overall not bad.
