Zombie Apocalypse: Redemption

This movie most definitely has entertainment value, but I don't believe it's the type of entertainment they had in mind when they made it. This movie is so atrociously bad, the acting, the script, everything, that you'll be laughing out loud, face palming yourself, and rolling your eyes continuously. I mean, the main villain in this film walked around the entire time with a look on his face like he was enraged, constipated 24/7, and had just drank half a jug of sour milk. That alone was hilarious to watch. The acting was unbelievably wooden, unbelievably unconvincing, and phoned in from 50 miles away. This is one of those rare movies that REALLY IS so bad it's good. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Is this really a 7 star movie? Nah... probably not... It is certainly cheesy... but in terms of entertainment / fun value, I actually really enjoyed it...

IMDB says the budget for this was $56k??? I find that really hard to believe... I mean, it's got Fred Williamson... he's done a TON of movies and TV shows... If the budget really was $56k? This movie deserves like 10+ stars...

So... what to expect from this sort of Mad Max meets the zombie apocalypse? A whole bunch of cheesy lines and dialogue, but with some actual reasonable acting... Surprisingly decent special effects ( except for a couple CGI explosions, which could have used some help ) Some surprisingly good fight choreography & stunt work Pretty good camera work / lighting / audio A fast paced moving story with a moderate amount of suspense & plenty of action A fair amount of zombie gore as well as a pile of zombies and evil raider people ( another reason, why I'm floored at the low budget... they had a TON of extras in this movie... and quite a few with "o...k..." makeup... )

----------

One side note... The opening text was hilariously bad... looked like a 1980's computer font intro... and the soundtrack sounded like it was ripped off a 1990's action flick or something... hahaha...

----------

In any case... I don't believe this movie was meant to be a "serious" zombie flick... I actually thought this movie was a lot of fun to watch... sure, there are a lot better zombie flicks out there... but there are a TON of worse ones too... I'm sticking with 7 star...

I'd give it zero stars if it had the option.it had coherent zombies that seemed to listen to the villain who might I add was trash....story felt like a 5 year old wrote it ....Big thumbs down for me.... The producer of this movie needs to stick to making low budget porn.... The worst character in the movie was a toss up between the main character and the villain... horrible film absolutely ridiculous and I don't think I'll be watching anything from this director of producer ever again... slap to the face of the zombie genre..... I mean how does the villain have the zombies under control? Unrealistic garbage.... Like I said it possibly thee single worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life.

You know, I never realise that a movie can be this bad. I rented this movie through ITunes together with the other "Zombie Apocalypse" titles (there were 3 of them) and I have to say that ALL OF THEM WERE SO AWFUL!

I hate to say bad things about anything unless it is really-really bad and unfortunately with all the 3 Zombie Apocalypse titles I rented, all of them were awful.

Sorry, I'm just being honest.

Story line doesn't make sense and soooo boring... Acting was just so bad especially the fighting scenes....oh man.... CGI effect was probably made by a 10-year-old?

I'm wandering if they ever re-watch the movie during the making?

I'm a die hard zombie movie fan but for the past few days my life has just been in total apocalypse by watching these series.

Oh man............

Every time I begrudgingly click on a post 1980's zombie picture I somehow convince myself before hand that it will not use the same stupid traits that every other modern zombie film/show uses. Maybe all zombie fans like these traits? I will get to those in a second, first lets look at the general qualities of the film. The acting? Bad. The bad guys act like COBRA from GI Joe and the good guys just as forcefully silly. Bad acting can harm a compelling story, luckily this film doesn't have one. There are times the acting is so hammy you would think you were watching The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The setting is that of a post apocalyptic world taken over by zombies, complete with mad max style outfits. Combined with the acting this only pushes the ridiculousness of the film. The story doesn't really ever present itself or draw you in. If you were to ask me what the story is 30 minutes into the film I would say some guy is captured or rescued by a group of survivors, and there are a bunch of mad Max guys led by a guy who growls everything he says who wants him dead for some reason. Camera work and quality is not bad but nothing terribly attractive or innovative about it. So lets go on with the traits I mentioned earlier, you may call this knit picking but these things get to you when you see it time and time again like I have. Number one and the biggest issue is the screeching zombies. I absolutely hate that. I hate it when zombies make animal growls or screeches because it is really just unpleasant to hear. Why is it that every modern zombie film has to do this? Second is that although every ones clothes are made to look dirty or tattered, the actors and actresses themselves look like they have always just gotten out of a fresh shower and new haircut. Finally is that the zombies themselves just are not presented as a danger in this film. In about any modern zombie film the zombies are just background noise, hardly seen and certainly no threat to the main characters of the film. I only saw about 2 zombies the first 40 minutes of the film. Overall weak quality. It felt like a zombie fan fiction more than a actual film. 2/10 is the best I can offer. It didn't try anything new and was of all around bad quality.
