Alicia I love this movie so much

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

jfgibson73 Here's a horror movie that was made in such a way that the term "low-budget" would not give you the idea. It looks like it was literally made with stuff they had around the house. If you had to put a price tag on your own home movies, that's probably comparable to what it took to make this.The story follows a college student who is forced out of her dorm due to lack of funds. She moves into the low income dorm, which looks like an abandoned tenement. The next day in class, the professor is leading a discussion on cultural views towards death, and mentions that he brought back a vial of zombie blood from Haiti. During the discussion, the main character and her friend laugh at another classmate, the queen bee campus snob Claire. Claire vows revenge and decides to steal the zombie blood and infect the girls. We also find out that the professor was sleeping with a student and tested the zombie blood on her when she threatened to go public with the affair. The zombie girlfriend has been living in the condemned housing unit, along with a few other infected students, hence the title.Clair ends up getting the vial and infecting the main character. However, unlike the scene in which we saw the professor's mistress get infected (it took ten seconds for her to transform into a zombie), Sarah remains human, but craves raw meat. Eventually, she attacks and eats others, and slowly, by the end has become a full zombie. In the final scene, she is shot and presumably killed while her friend watches in horror (it was shown in an unbroken shot on a live newscast, I guess). As other reviewers have pointed out, one of the obvious distractions of this movie is that characters were filmed at different times with different equipment, then edited together. So you get a shot of Claire delivering a line with plenty of background noise, then a retort from another character with an entirely different audio quality, responding in a cadence that doesn't remotely resemble an actual conversation. I should also mention that the actress playing Claire had to be the most vacant human being you could imagine, both in terms of her delivery, and her facial and physical expressions. Which only made it more watchable, ironically.Most of these flaws didn't bother me. I found it so inept that it was fascinating to watch, for the most part. There were some stretches that were slow, but for the most part I was pretty entertained (in the unintentionally bad-movie sort of way). Also, there were some songs on the soundtrack that were actually really good, enough so that I wish I could find them to download. I'm not that interested in zombies or gore, so I didn't really care about the shortcomings that most genre fans would complain of. Definitely very, very badly done, but I enjoyed the mess.

ZombieRanger This film is an oddity, it's shot on different film stocks(actually video formats). It was clearly expanded with new unrelated scenes edited into its' runtime. More gore and nudity seemed to have been spliced in. The scenes that include Tiffany Shepis, have a much darker tone then when our heroines are together. The acting is all over the board, ranging from awful to quirky. What made this movie for me however is not the movie itself. The film ends at roughly 65 minutes, but there is a 7 min scene following the initial credits, that actually had me burst out laughing, and what was so surprising was that it was supposed to be funny! This felt like a student film and it probably started as one. I wouldn't recommend this to everyone, but there does seem to be some heart in it.

capkronos After a Criswell-like introduction (featuring "Dukey Flyswatter"/Michael D. Sonye, a vet of several notable 80s B movies), the action cuts to Arkham Hall Girls' Dormitory, where some strange things are afoot. A sorority girl and her boyfriend are both killed by zombies; one of whom does a back flip for no apparent reason. Tiffany Shepis then puts in a cameo and manages to make it through a long lesbian scene without losing any of her clothing. I know, I'm as surprised as you are. She and her abusive boyfriend, as well as her friend Jane (Amanda Barnett), are killed by more zombies in a parking garage. After wasting about 15 minutes on basically nothing, the film finally gets to the meat of the story. Two best friends, the more straight-laced "geek" Allison Gellar (Adrianna Eder) and goth vegetarian Sarah Hannigan (Ciara Richards) want to do "something cool" so they go visit a cemetery to do some charcoal tracings of tombstones. Afterward, they encounter Southern fried campus bitch queen Clare Ryan (Jackie Hall), who looks and sounds like a less-talented version of Tara Reid. Yes, that IS possible. All three girls attend science class, where their hunky professor Dr. Xander (ugh, kill it with the "Buffy" references already...) talks about death and claims he has a vial of zombie blood he acquired on a trip to Haiti two years earlier. Clare observes in her monotone voice "Someone's been watching too many crappy movies." Tell me about it, sister. Double billing this flick with POT ZOMBIES tonight has almost turned ME into a zombie.Well, Sarah is called to the financial aid office and is told her tuition check has bounced and she has three days to come up with 4 thousand dollars. She's kicked out of her dorm room and forced to go to dreaded Arkham Hall, a run-down building used for "charity case students" who have no money. Arkham is also the hot spot for zombie activity since Dr. Xander (Christopher Slade) had already used his blood sample to turn a female student who tried to blackmail him into a zombie. Since then, things have spiraled out of control and the zombie girl has infected several other students (including Ms. Shepis) who lurk around in the house.Meanwhile, Clare coerces her bimbo friend Julie (Andrea Brooke Owneby, who apparently is "America's Dumbest Stripper" after her IQ score came back near the mental retardation bracket during her appearance on The Howard Stern Show) into helping her break into Dr. Xander's lab to steal his zombie blood. Julie wusses out (and promptly disappears from the rest of the film despite her star billing on the DVD cover), but Clare gets the vial after the doc is killed by zombies. Being the nice girl she is, Clare goes to Arkham Hall and dribbles some of the blood into Sarah's mouth while she's sleeping. That next morning, Sarah awakens in a daze and soon she's feasting on rare meat before graduating to human flesh. It's at this point, nearly an hour into the film, that the films gets slightly better for about ten minutes as Sarah goes on a mild rampage around town. She chews on a dummy head that's supposed to look like Kimberly Lynn Cole and kills the dean's wife. She also hitches a ride from a guy (played by Jim O'Rear) who takes her to a drive-in playing SEE NO EVIL and SILENT HILL. Poor girl. Then it's off to a bar to get back at a drunken Clare, and then to a carnival. There are a few OK metal songs that sounds a lot like White Zombie that play during her feeding frenzies.Director Donald Farmer is a name somewhat familiar to fans of horrible horror films. He's been making no budget movies like this since the mid 1980s, but sadly doesn't seem to have improved much over the past two decades. DORM was shot on digital and the picture quality is decent for the format. However, it's otherwise full of technical goofs usually attributed to amateur first-time filmmakers. There are tons of continuity errors, it's badly paced, it's padded, the attempts at humor almost always miss the mark and the editing, acting, script, gore fx and sound are all pretty lousy. The Clare character is only seen in close-up and doesn't interact with most of the rest of the cast, which makes it seem like all of her scenes were shot separately. The zombie make-up is almost nonexistent. A little dab of faint green paint and a little blood is all there is to it. There are three instances of T&A in the film, which is basically all it has to offer its target audience.

matty241090 This is one of the worst low budget movies I have ever seen. The acting is terrible and some of the effects are even worse. Also where is the story line????? The soundtrack however is quite good as the opening song was amazing. However some songs didn't fit the scene very well. Most of the sound effects were repeated.If you like nude college girls this is definitely the movie for you.There is a classroom scene which looks like it has been shot in three different locations that have all been thrown into one. Overall i rate this move very very poor. It comes no where near other zombie films like "Dawn Of The Dead" or "Land Of The Dead".
