It was with some expectation that I bought this movie - yeah I actually paid money for this garbage. I had heard nothing buy praise for Moody's novel, which I also bought, but haven't read yet. And truth be told, now that I have seen the movie, I dread opening the book in fear that it will be equally worthless.

I had expected somewhat more of an ordinary zombie movie from this, I didn't really buy into the thing that was going on with the re-animated dead and how they were treated by the survivors. That was just a tad too unconventional for me.

Storywise, it seemed a bit too jumpy, and there wasn't much of a structured linear storyline going on. I actually fell asleep during the movie and ended up turning it off, as it was just that uneventful and uninteresting.

As for the cast and their acting, well most of the people were doing adequately, though the dialogue was somewhat crippling at times, and there were some performances of acting that was quite bad to look at. However, I will say that there was a very every-day-feel to the cast and the way that they talked.

"Autumn" didn't sell its goods to me on any level, it was uninteresting already from just a few minutes into it, and then it was an uphill struggle for it to get any ground and win me over. In the end, the movie lost and I gave up on it. For a zombie aficionado like myself, "Autumn" was a huge disappointment.

There are far better zombie movies available on the market, even a good handful of the low-budget movies fared better than "Autumn". It was a shame, because Moody was so praised for his novels.

I am a fan of zombie movies but honestly, it's been a while since i got to see a good one. This one's pretty OK but could have been a lot better:

• story evolves pretty slow, and is predictable at most points; also, the main events in the movie are poorly connected to form a smooth storyline; Also, most of the stuff seems to be happening towards the end of the film.

• acting is decent

• makeup is OK - zombies look real

• special effects are disastrous - the most advanced special effect is made by "fast-forwarding through the scene"

• Horrible SOUND!!!! it has scenes where the actors are talking but you can't hear what they are saying because of the background music that is too loud (and i'm not talking about the scenes where it is obvious that the voices have been intentionally covered by the background music).

Sometimes I watch movies with David Carradine and think it's a shame that this will be part of his legacy. This is one of those films. Not that I was ever a huge Carradine fan, but it gives you an idea of how I feel about this film. I feel bad for an actor known for largely being in mediocre-at-best films because he was in it. And even then, not for very long. Also, while I'm thinking about it, I think it's great to more away from the traditional zombie story every now and then but can we please stop pretending like this whole "everyone has a virus except for a few people" thing is new and fresh? The end result is the same as any old zombie movie so knock it off.

What you essentially have here is the old small group of survivors who band together and dig in whilst under constant zombie attack. Well...not so much attack as constant zombie presence. I will give the movie props for one thing...I liked the way the zombies sort of evolve from just being corpses to rudimentary movement to being able to actually comprehend things. Of course, that doesn't excuse a plot line that has virtually everyone in the country dropping dead simultaneously. I'm not sure what disease model they were working off of, but that would have to be one hell of a virus. And I don't normally pick on technical aspects of movies, but the audio in this was terrible. Maybe it was just the copy I had, but everything that wasn't speech sounded loaded up with reverb. It was downright distracting and, let's face it, this movie didn't need any more strikes against it.

All said and done, you've seen this same type of film done better with less. It's not awful, it just fails to really do much of anything. All of the characters pretty much fail to make you concerned about their well-being and the story itself just sort of drags along without for almost 2 hours...much longer than it needs to be. I won't say you should avoid it...that's your call...but I'm certainly not going to endorse it.

I am generally a fan of zombie flicks, many of which are low budget and most of which will not be regarded as cinematic masterpieces. This film, however, is the worst piece of garbage that I have ever seen. I know that phrases like this are used too liberally on IMDb, so believe me that I am using the phrase as appropriately as possible.

The sound engineer must be deaf. The director (if there was truly a director) should permanently resign himself from film-making. The actors although terrible should probably not be blamed because the sense is that the script and directing sealed their fate before the first line of dialogue was spoken.

The editing is horrendous. It's so bad that in many parts of the movie, you can't really tell what's going on because of the atrocious scattering of clips.

There really is no excuse for this piece of rotting manure. Budget is not the issue. I could make a better movie than this for the price of a used lawnmower.

Skill and talent are the ingredients that are missing from the start. Money can't buy those and unfortunately for those involved in this film, they will never possess either.

There is absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing worth more than zero, except a 7/10 for 7 minutes of David Carradine. I waited with my son for even one scene that might redeem our pitiful time that was stolen from us minute by minute. All the ingredients of the movie are rotten including acting, location, scenery, script, music, direction. I wish I can say the special effects were awful, but there is none. I even couldn't tell in which country the events took place. No matter how low the budget was, I believe it is too much. I do tolerate many lame movies sometimes out of curiosity, but this one was intolerable. DO NOT EVEN THING ABOUT IT, if you value your time and self esteem.

I would have given this movie -10 out of 10 if possible. Every aspect of this movie is pitiful. The Direction, Acting, Soundtrack, Cinematography, Make up, Special Effects, Screenplay, Editing etc etc etc are the worst examples I have ever seen. Even the titles look like something from a 1970's kids TV programme. It looks like something an 8 year old child would produce for a class project and receive a D- for. Avoid at all costs - it really is quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen, and I've seen a few in my time. I can't think of a single moment of the movie that was entertaining, interesting, or anything other than absolutely awful. It really is that bad.

I just watched this movie and I thought it was so bad it was almost good... Almost. I appreciate that it's an independent production and filmed on a tight budget but this was truly awful.

Let's face it, zombie films are a done deal now. There are so many awesome zombie films in existence today that you would have to do something pretty amazing to add to the genre and this is no where near. Most of it is just unintentionally hilarious, the zombies are so lame they make Michael Jackson's Thriller look scary and the acting is so bad it's like watching porn but without the sex.

I have never read the book (I didn't even know of it's existence till a few hours ago) but if any of the comments I've read about it on IMDb are anything to go by then I'm willing to bet that this pile of garbage wont live up to it.

Save yourself the trouble.

This movie was utter crap from start to finish - no exaggeration.

There were at least a dozen prolonged scenes where I had little idea what was happening (I mean it, I couldn't even guess what the director was trying to show). There were disjoint images or sounds thrown into some scenes, seemingly to lend some emotion or atmosphere to the story, but it confused the heck out of me.

I LOVE this kind of story - global disaster strikes mankind, and a handful of survivors are left to pick up the pieces. I really dig the philosophical questions that get raised (and sometimes answered), and the strategies that the survivors come up with to continue living.

However, this movie had little of that - the story line, the characters, the script, the cinematography, the sound (seemingly recorded on one of those toy Mickey Mouse microphones) ... all of it was so glaringly cheap or badly done as to cause actual embarrassment in anyone watching it.

What can I say that is good about this movie? Well, there were a few moments when I thought it was actually going to pull through for me - the monster effects were really good in some scenes, and ... well, that's it really.

Don't watch this movie. Honestly, it really ISN'T one of those low budget movies that a minority appreciates in spite of the majority. It's just a waste of time.

It has to be said, this movie is extremely low budget that has many plot holes and there isn't anything really consistent. Where the movie shines is having characters who you don't want to die. In many few against many horror movies there are some characters you just want to die. At least within this movie you empathize with the characters. The lighting in the movie is pretty dark, giving it a home movie feel. Sometimes this works to good effect, other times less so. Still there are a few scenes where you think something might happen and doesn't and others vice versa! From the Omega Man onwards there have been movies with trained personnel taking on the living dead to individuals. Again it was refreshing not to see a movie that everyone had to be tooled up to the nines and like Shaun of the Dead you could walk among them and not always been seen as a quick snack (if you walked around slowly and quietly).

The movie is very slow paced and doesn't use montages of what is on TV or a radio to learn how to kill or not, the zombies. Additionally rather than having immediate flesh eating zombies the zombies seem to be passive at first and then violent later on in the movie. This gives this movie a different tact.

Okay, I've gone over the parts which I think it's different from others. Still, I'd say there's nothing really new within the movie. We know the story: Virus kills off billions, a few people survive and get into the country and try and live in peace. But, the zombies can find you and slowly they come in their masses! David Carodine, I have NO idea why they got him into this low budget piece. They could have got anyone to play his part and in fact it'd probably have been better if they had. Like other comments here, I thought it was painful to see him act. His role was kinda a fill-in, madman keeps zombies at bay and he's hiding a secret.

There's some very good points raised in the movie about how to survive a holocaust and what next. Still, the worst parts are found in the big plot holes. For example, sometimes the zombies move super-fast early in their development and then seem to forget that they had this ability! Next their development to eating flesh in live animals seems to again come earlier in the movie and then forgotten again.

If you'd like to see a more dynamic take on humans in zombie-land and have not seen the other likely suspects I'd give this one a try. But, if you've seen 28 days later, Romero's latest movies and maybe haven't seen this years best zombie flick Dead Snow, I'd save your money on this and rent Dead Snow!

If you've read any of the David Moody books the "Autumn" series, then you'll most likely appreciate this movie.

The movie is based on David Moody's first book "Autumn" (total of four books to date) and it did a great job of staying true to the main characters and the storyline. Most movies I've seen that were based on books end up being a hack job; the director gives their interpretation and loses the essence of what the book was really about (any fan of Stephen King would agree).

Yes, the acting could have been much better and the editing was quite choppy, but the story itself remained intact. The movie was slow because the first book "Autumn" was slow.

The "Autumn" series is another approach to the zombie culture and the books are much more plot and character driven than they are at delivering blood, gore and the end of the world apocalypse scenarios.

Bottom line, if you've read and enjoyed any of the David Moody books, then this movie is worth the rental. If you haven't read any of his books, then maybe 28 Days Later or any George Romero movie would be more up your alley.

We watched Autumn years ago and still use it as the yardstick by which we measure other bad movies. For us, "Autumn" has basically become shorthand for"a very, very bad film".

I can't muster the psychic energy to care enough to review this stinker, but I'll give one quick example of the bad writing and low budget that plague the movie. At one point the characters build a fence to keep out the zombies. The characters even say any fence built for that purpose would have to be really strong. When we then see the fence with hordes of zombies pushing against it, the fence is just a cheap, waist-high thing, what appears to be a sand fence, those little fences used to keep sand on beaches in place, and definitely not strong enough to stop a single person, much less a horde of shambling zombies.

When I read the summary to this movie I thought that it would be a descent SciFy, but after watching it, I don't think a 1 is a low enough rating for it. They didn't explain anything, and it was just everywhere.

Only watch this movie if it is to torture someone, because honestly, it is worse than the Chinese dripping torture. I don't think I can write ten lines about this movie so here I go on talking about absolutely nothing that has to do with anything. Maybe if you stare hard enough at the screen, it will distract you from the fact that I am blabbing on about nothing.

Ya gotta love most of the reviews here trashing the hell out of AUTUMN. Question, what was your prime viewing source? Leak version via the torrents etc? Thought so! Too bad those reviews wouldn't hold water in the real world or legit world of reviewing! Not to add that you were all scammed off viewing the real, completed version which is yet to be released! Too bad most of you opted to take the cheap easy way, not to mention stealing from those who worked their butts off to bring what will be a very vital piece to the zombie genre! Steven Rumbelow, who directed AUTUMN has brought us a very beautifully stagnate film reminiscent of Bergman's works. Of course, you wouldn't know that until you see the complete version! AUTUMN, showcases some very impressive and some very compelling scenes on several different levels. From some very rare Carradine driven acting, to some Fletcher-Tolson action! Folks, throw away that torrent rip you wasted so long to download, open a fresh mind and wait until the real dead walk the screen when AUTUMN finally gets it's due! There is no room for couch potatoes trying to review something that isn't complete, cause then your review is incomplete!

First, if you're a fan of zombie flicks don't be fooled by some of the other comments claiming this is the worst movie ever. This was an excellent attempt to break away from the traditional zombie holocaust movie where we are bombarded with gore and a predictable plot.

I say attempt because while the storyline in this movie is quite strong the directing was lacking, the screenplay needed to be further refined and the acting was not bad in spots but was also not so good in spots.

All in all this was more of a suspenseful movie, not the gore-fest us zombie fans are used to. A welcome addition to the genre and a nice break from some of the teen horror garbage that is put out there (think House of the Dead, forest of the dead type of thing)

I am familiar with the Audio version of Autumn, and I see some of the story in this film, but it is like someone put the original script in a blender, and then took half the pieces mixed some rejected Ken Russell dream sequences, and had a 10 year old fill in the missing pieces. The story just isn't there. Lucky they got David Carradine, which is probably why this film got financed, but the extended scene with David Carradine which just go on way to long (though this scene might just stand up on it's own as a short), and doesn't do anything for the plot. Add to this the amateur production of the film, it is a shame this films does such a disservice to the source material.
