Outside

Aside from what I'm assuming is Tagalog and the Filipino aspect, this is a zombie-infested drama everyone is familiar with by now. It does nothing new, as in a world filled with flesh-eating creatures and the real monsters are often other human beings. See the behavior of the average person when pushed to the extreme with no enforcement of rules or norms to adhere to. Pretty standard.

Starts off as a family drama that eventually spirals into a domestic horror. What makes this worth watching is Sid Lucero and Beauty Gonzalez. They're good. Very convincing. It's just enough to take this boilerplate film to its conclusion. The kids try their best but don't quite sell it, and the special effects are adequate but not particularly noteworthy. Neither is the environment/setting, which almost feels as if you're watching the same scene for over two hours.

I don't want to criticize too harshly. It's just that after 12 years of The Walking Dead and countless zombie games + films/spinoffs later, this is nothing special. You watch this for the talent of the aforementioned actors and maybe an appreciation of the language / culture on display. Outside of being an enthusiast, there's not much else to show up for.

Heartfelt zombie movie, about family love. I really enjoyed this movie, the acting was excellent from all involved. The special effects was good as well. Man escapes with his wife and two sons from a zombie apocalypse to an isolated farm. This drama zombie horror is a must watch as it takes on a different course. You feel for the whole families pain as you're watching, from the father, wife & two sons. Emotional, and psychological honor ensues. It seems foreign zombie movies are always the ones that are the best for me. I'm a zombie horror fan, and I will definitely be recommending this one on Netflix to my friends.

Sometimes the best way to watch a movie or series is to leave all your expectations before watching it or else many times you get disappointed.

That's what this movie will do if you if you expect it to be a zombie Survival movie.

It deviates from the infamous apocalyptic world survival horror genre to a more of Psychological Horror or Domestic horror genre. If you are watching the movie for a thrill ride like watching a endless Zombie killing spree movie then you shouldn't watch this one.

There are very less Scenes involving zombies but more with violence between different Characters and between Characters and their inner demon.

At the end of the day I enjoyed the movie and it's something different this time.

The acting is top notch, Story felt a little bit dragged but still it was good. Definitely You can give it a try.

Severe gore and violence present so stay away if you can't watch it.

Outside dives into the zombie apocalypse genre with a unique perspective, focusing on the psychological toll of survival rather than just the thrills of combat. Director Carlo Ledesma, the film showcases a group of survivors trapped in a remote cabin, cut off from the rest of the world.

The cinematography beautifully captures the haunting atmosphere of their isolation, with sweeping shots of the desolate landscape that heighten the sense of dread. The performances, especially by Sid Lucero and Beauty Gonzalez, bring depth to the characters, making their struggles relatable and emotionally impactful.

One of the film's strengths is its exploration of human relationships under extreme pressure. The dynamic within the group adds layers to the narrative, showcasing how fear can both unite and divide. However, some moments feel overly drawn out, and certain plot developments can be predictable for seasoned zombie genre fans.

While the film does offer some tense action sequences, it leans more heavily into character-driven storytelling, which might not satisfy everyone looking for a traditional zombie thriller. The pacing occasionally lags, and a few secondary characters feel underdeveloped.

Overall, Outside presents an interesting take on survival and humanity amid chaos. It may not be perfect, but it offers enough intrigue and emotion to make it worth a watch, especially for those who appreciate character-driven narratives in the horror genre.

There is a good movie here. Acting is good, storyline is good and the zombies are a fresh version. There are some ways the story turns and plays with your emotions on the family dynamic that I really liked. The ending does well to wrap up everyone's story arc.

However, the movie drags on so long with very few zombie moments that you will feel like an undead by the end. I am actually a fan of the slow paced zombie films but this one really drags it out. Just when you think things will get exciting it slows back down to it's turtle pace.

This movie would be excellent if it landed at 1:45min run time and maybe one or two more zombie scenes.
