The Dead Inside

The rating for this movie shouldn't be so low. I've given it a slightly above average rating because it kept my interest. All the sexy lads were a huge bonus. I gave it an extra star because I'd never seen a stud urinate on a group of zombies. It was worth my time.

Although this film didn't have a big budget like other zombie films, it really held its own. I was expecting it to be terrible acting but the acting wasn't that bad either. I think this film is fairly realistic when it comes to the mistakes and choices they made which was nice.

Honestly I feel a bit bad leaving a one-star review because this is somebody's creative work of art and I don't want to demean it but at the same time this movie was flat out terrible. I'll note that I'm American here so maybe this is just an issue for me but almost all of the time I can't even understand what the actors are saying due to SUPER thick accents, a lack of subtitles, and poor sound mixing as well as the lack of annunciation from the cast. I suppose the movie could boast some production value in the fact that they had plenty of extras to portray zombie hoards which is no small task for an indie film but the production value is squandered in a dull story and characters with no personalities. The camera work here is shotty and obviously filmed on camcorders from Best Buy without any thought given into the lighting or the camera angles. It looks like somebody just picked up a camera and began shooting whatever was in front of them and zooming in and out without any real purpose or Direction. I think that perhaps there was something they could have done here to make an okay movie but due to a lack of planning or something or Rush production Maybe it ended up just being a waste of 2 hours.

"The Dead Inside" boasts 'post-Romero packed with punch' on the DVD front cover. You have to look really long and hard for anything even remotely close to what Romero have accomplished with any of his movies. And paying £10.08 for this movie on Amazon is a rip off, because this movie is downright and blatantly bad.

Everything in this movie just screams low budget and inferior production. The camera-work was questionable and most of the time downright annoying. I don't pay money to see a movie that is shot by a camera operator with Parkinsons disease. The camera-work in "The Dead Inside" was all over the place.

The dialogue was mundane, and delivered without any punch or conviction, which just added fuel to the fire that was characters that had no appeal, no charisma, no dimension and characters that you didn't care about or relate to in any way.

As much as I enjoy zombie movies, then the running zombie aspect of the zombie mythology is just wasted on me. Personally, I am more to the staggering, slow zombies that walk with a gait. And zombies should at the very least look like they are deceased individuals, not just people painted with some grey make-up and splashed with fake blood.

"The Dead Inside" had nothing interesting to offer, nor did it prove interesting in any single way. And as much of a zombie aficionado as I am, then this movie was just a swing and a miss.

Don't get suckered and fooled by the somewhat interesting and appealing DVD cover, because it has nothing to do with the actual movie itself. And the zombies in the movie doesn't even look like on the DVD cover at all. The zombies in the movie were just regular people milling about with bad make-up.

Stay well clear of "The Dead Inside", because there is very little to be had here...

They just kept doing dumb shiat and asking stupid questions. This is the perfect movie if you like cursing at the TV. Not one of these people are likeable so you really can't root for any of them except maybe the leader military guy. You can make a good movie on a low budget, but it has to have people that act like a normal person would.
