Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Michael Ledo Matthew (Tim Mcgill Grieveson) lives by himself in a self sufficient post zombie apocalypse era. He spends his time burning bodies and trying to contact people by radio. A stranger (Stuart Wolfenden) comes to his isolated "fortress" only to pass out. Mathew reads zombie stories from the stranger's book which comprises much of the film. The first episode concerns the rural beginnings of the zombie issue as a cowboy looking fellow with hat and spurs emerging from a grave as an anti-Christ or something (the explanation tried to be religious without being religious) and starts the zombie craze in a nation that doesn't have a Second Amendment designed to protect the general population from such things.The second story is in a small city during the peak of the outbreak and the third concerns the beginning of a remote survivalist group. As always in such tales, the fourth story concerns the story teller.My biggest fear of obtaining this DVD (Walmart $9.96) was that the three tales would be parts of other films, or worse, a hand held camera running and screaming in the dark. That was not the case. The zombies were decently made up with a Tor Johnson looking guy who seemed to be on the screen more than George Clooney in a George Clooney film. The stories circled back with minor irony. However on the down side there was no character development. Most characters are alive for 20-30 minutes of screen time before they stick their arms up in the air and start dragging their feet.The zombie direction seemed to be a bit off. Their movement was hit and miss. Sometimes they attack, other times they ignore. In one scene a little zombie girl has her hands down and is just standing in front of a human, then after the camera pans away and comes back, she suddenly has her arms up in zombie attack mode. The motion was awkward.Parental Guidance: F-bomb. No sex or nudity. Works as a rental.
Endorfun86-928-706119 I read a few reviews, some giving this movie a 4 Star review and then the there are the ones that gave this 10 stars with some @*%# about how others that gave this a low rating just didn't understand something about this movie. Well, this movie plain and simply gives proof that Britain should not be allowed to make, export or give advice when it comes to horror movies, and should only be allowed to make comedies.
Andy Van Scoyoc I picked up this film at a flea market, for a dollar and figured, for that price, I didn't have anything to lose. I wouldn't have paid "real" money to see it, but honestly...Not bad.Believe me...There's much worse out there and unfortunately, I think I've seen most of them. Just like any zombie film, some of it is stupid, some situations you'd look at and go, "what the.....? No one would do that..."But, all in all, not bad. David Frampton's performance was touching and helped bring a human element to some of the stupider and badly acted parts.Worth a watch...Could have ended better...Much better, but all in all...Pretty well done!
Paul Magne Haakonsen First of all I will start out by saying that the cover for this movie has absolutely nothing to do with the contents of the actual movie. Two words: false advertising. I bought the movie because it is a zombie movie and because of the cover, so I was sorely disappointed with a slap to the face.This is a compilation of three tales that are interwoven. That being said, I will have to stress that the stories weren't particularly entertaining, neither alone nor in their tied in connections, nor did the overall feel of the movie come off as anywhere near captivating. And come daybreak of the next day you will have forgotten about this movie already, trust me.There were a bit too many wrong Things with the zombies, such as they could remember their Family members, some were quite fast and agile, and of course the typical poor zombie make-up in low budget zombie movies - where they paint the face a horribly bad gray color and forget about the rest of the body, with the neck and hands standing out like sore thumbs.As an avid zombie aficionado I devour, pardon the pun, anything even remotely zombie. This movie, however, falls into the lower aspect of the zombie genre, and I can't recommend it to anyone because it is boring and bad on the level that only low budget zombie movies manage to reach.
