This movie sucks. Its like watching a mash up of a knockoff of a knockoff of walking dead and how I met your mother. The zombies are more rapists than real zombies. I wanted to die while I was watching this movie, and you will too. Do yourself a favor and save 1.5hrs of your life by throwing rocks instead of watching this movie. If the actors got paid to be in this movie, it was only from pan handling. Turner Clay...retire so no one has to bear the eye burning torture that are your films. There is no reason to watch this film other than you have been excommunicated from society and were left with the DVD as your punishment. This film could end obesity in the united states by causing a pandemic of projectile vomiting on demand. I wouldn't advise watching it just so you can see first hand how bad it is. Trust me, its bad.

ANother zombie movie! I had just about completely stopped worrying about an actual zombie apocalypse after watching other movies and series knowing that they are all too slow and too dumb to worry about them catching me....this is one of a few that the zombies haul arse! Although as stated in other reviews there is not much actual zombie action, this movie contains some really intense scenes where you just want to cover your eyes knowing that something is going to jump out at you. The actors and actresses are all unknown, but they still did a pretty good job. I enjoyed the movie but wish the ending had a little more closure. It's worth a watch if you're looking for something to fill time. It's definitely NOT one of those flicks that you say "Now there's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back!"

slow and boring it was one of those C grade movies that I kept hoping would improve... lacked plot. worst movie I have watched in a while. Actors are in need of some education. Special effects lacked creditability and did storyline ... the beginning with the injured girlfriend was lost as soon as it happened and was barley mentioned again. I will never reclaim the 1Hour 29Minutes 42Seconds that evaporated into this messy, incoherent and ultimately unforgettable fake zombie movie /money spender. If the director have any hope of exposure and a future career it was is that possibly it may be seen as a cheap must have for TV stations to fill late night time-slots The producers and investors are praying that the current zombie gravy train helps it break even GoTrollYourSelf

I'm going to keep this very short as this is the first time I have entered my own review on a film, usually just using the reviews to help me decide whether or not to watch a film, and I don't want to spoil it by giving anything away. I agree with some of the reviews that there wasn't much zombie action, however, I would mark it up there with the Walking Dead in terms of just the right balance of story vs zombie. For me this was the perfect type of Zombie film as you just never quite knew when those moments were going to happen. Certainly had my heart racing on occasions. Give it a go - what have you got to lose?? An hour and a half of your time?? In my opinion, it won't be wasted!

If you come into this expecting something like the Walking Dead, or any of the other hundreds of Zombie movies out there, you will be disappointed. This movie is actually more about the characters and the personalities and what they are experiencing and going through emotionally, than it is about Zombies. Taking it for what it is, this movie is okay. It's not fantastic, but it is okay. If anything, the Zombies almost get in the way of the actual story itself, at least what little of them there are. The movie is a wee bit confused in that it is trying to cater to multiple audiences by being a dramatic tale with some conservatively added violence, guns and gore. Doesn't quite work, but I don't think it completely fails either.

<----FOR PEOPLE WHO /HAVE NOT/ SEEN THE MOVIE----> This movie is a lot better than I had expected, despite many of the other ratings here... If you're looking for another buckets of blood gore-a-thon that are a dime a dozen don't look to this movie. This movie bases its thrills off many moments of buildup and tension rather than just pounding your face with cheap gory action. It puts a lot of focus on the characters, the story behind the outbreak, and risks instead of most zombie movies which focus on large amounts of zombies chasing people. <----FOR PEOPLE WHO /HAVE/ SEEN THE MOVIE----> There are so many things I could praise in the movie, first of which should be the zombies. The clearly crimson red eyes made them very startling, with blood and other effects not wildly overdone. The scene with the old lady acting like a human catches you off guard, especially when the flashlight shines on the red eyes I stated before. Zombies are also actually taken seriously, with just one being a serious risk rather than a dozen being nothing. Their ferociousness with running and climbing and even being able to open doors made them very scary, much more than dumb walking zombies. The characters have good back stories and actually show emotion in dealing with their situation. The conflicts between the characters are very believable, with situations you could actually imagine yourself in rather than really cheesy, cliché, or just stupid conflicts you find in other movies. The twist with one of them having diabetes was great, not many if any zombies movies go into characters with diseases like this and coping with it in the apocalypse. The ending was decent though I must say I doubt the military would let any survivors off free, even if they didn't find any trace of the virus in them the risk would be way too high. This was really the only unrealistic thing I saw in the movie.
