Alone

There's a Korean film that came out a year or two ago with the same story, plot, everything. And it was much better.

Who cares if it's better or worse than the Korean version. This was an enjoyable, well paced film. Had a good mix of despair, horror ,hope and romance. Some truly edge of your seat moments. The zombies were fast and plentiful. Reminded me of those from 28 days later. Yes, there were the usual stupid moments as in most horror films, such as being in intense situations but easily dropping your guard, putting your weapon down, not locking the door etc etc. While being annoying I guess these things happen to add tension. What did bug me though was the main actor. I think he'd been hired from over actors anonymous. In a movie where the idea is to be quiet to avoid zombie detection this bloke shouts, screams and grunts at every opportunity. Anyway, overall it's worth a watch.

The plot is the same as #Alive, a South Korean zombie flick, but it fell short. Actually Matt Naylor has a screenwriting credit on both films, so it's hard to say which movie copied the other. While Alone has a good premise (like #Alive), it takes the wrong turn by offering us humiliating lead (sorry Posey), lazy story, apathetic "suspenseful" scenes and a love story that is nothing more than a mere fairytale. In the end I think Alone is more action driven, and #Alive has more character development.

I get that this is a an American production but if you are to take a concept from overseas kindly do it justice not, half baked effort

Was ok. Could have been much better. Decent for a one time watch though. I wish they would have done so much more with it though. It had so much more potential.
