Outbreak

It's been a long time since I watched characters in a movie so pathetic that I rooted for zombies to eat them. Technically they are "rabid" or "infected".

It wouldn't surprise me if the whole thing is a nightmare sequence or coma dream.

"The Dead Don't Die" is the last comparable zombie type movie to measure against. I don't know if they had a script or if they ad-libbed the dialogue. It almost wants to be a comedy, but fails. The effects weren't terrible. The atmosphere of the movie is miserable. The main characters are upset over losing their teenage son and it goes downhill from there. You might try a movie with less baggage.

This entire movie was made for the ending, a pointless movie, with zero character and plot development. The entire movie i don't think the zombies made 1 single kill, usually in other zombies movies they come in hordes, the horde in this movie is like 9 zombies. All that followed by subpar acting from nonbelieveable characters, blah blah blah.....then the last 10 minutes of the movie it happens and honestly makes the train wreck you just watched almost worth it, in a weird way. I didn't see it coming, I enjoyed it, the movie was god awful but the ending was pretty solid. What they did perfectly? The music, lol the music really helped carry the movie. I'm not a huge fan on running zombies but they did an alright job, most gore looked real, I appreciate that.

Not your average zombie film, with a bit of trust at the end. The acting was pretty bad and as much as I like a zombie flick as much as the next person, it didn't really do it for me.

Lots of holes in the story and a lot of unnecessary dialogue used as filler.

Basically, the main character has issues from losing his son. Then an apparent zombie outbreak happens. He drives with his wife to "get out of the town" but seems to do anything but. Driving backwards and forwards to their home, cliche can't get anyone of the walkie, no bullets, blah blah.

I won't spoil the ending as it was a bit of a twist. I will say the zombies were at least decent (what there were of them). But wouldn't watch it again.

My expectations were very limited with this generic title, bad poster, and seemingly clichéd plot of a zombie apocalypse outbreak. We follow a state park ranger who is grappling with the disappearance of his teenage son until one day he has to face a mysterious zombie outbreak. As soon as he realizes what is going on, he grabs his wife, who acts like a numb sack of potatoes the entire time, and drives off.

Even after all these countless zombie movies, I still really enjoy the subgenre. And even though my expectations were low, I was excited to see this. It doesn't take long for the first zombie to show up, and the makeup effects looked decent, which was a pleasant surprise given the 4.4-star rating the movie currently has. There are a few tense scenes, and the zombies seem to get more physically athletic throughout the film. It's the fast-zombie version with twisting limbs and unnatural body movements, similar to what some Asian entries in the genre (for example, Train to Busan) often do. Many of the interactions with zombies felt unnatural and awkward at first, which was a little distracting, but later on these moments integrated more naturally into the film.

Billy Burke as the lead was good, and there were even a few humorous lines that worked rather well. The movie was actually quite diverting, even though it felt cheap, and some of the dialogue between the lead and his wife or other characters felt unnatural and out of place. Overall, I had a decent time, which could be because of my low expectations going in, but I have certainly seen worse in the genre. The movie also introduces one element that makes it stand out a bit, even though it has been done before. Still, it gave this movie a little more character. For genre lovers, this could be a decent watch, but if you are tired of seeing zombie movies, then this one definitely won't change that. [5.9/10]

I love zombie/apocalypse type of movies! Not sure why, but find them entertaining. I could not stop laughing during this one, not because it was intentionally funny, but because it was one of the worst ones I've ever watched! Just when you think it can't get any more stupid, it does! Yes, I watched the entire thing, I just couldn't look away. Nothing makes sense! The writing is ridiculous and riddled with inconsistencies!

In this case, these zombies are infected with rabies. And of course, the two sheriffs radios won't work. Why would people infected with rabies interfere with radio signals? That's just one of the utterly comical and ridiculous things that takes place. Watch it if you want a good laugh.
