In a tired and overstayed YA movies where government is hunting "kids with powers," we have another movie that is recycling the exact same premise without bringing anything new.

Even the title is lazy because X-Men was already taken. The powers are convenient and vague but dubious because the writers lack imagination as how to use them.

These are not filmmakers that should be allowed to write their own script, let along directing anything that's released in theater.

The two-sentence premise was misleading and I went to see the movie hoping that it's something new and unique.

This movie is truly an insult to George Romero. The acting and the zombie effect were barely above normal but the story is so weak. It's essentially a zombie movie taking place in a pot farm. The pot humors aren't funny at all and they never ever gotten around to barricading the windows.

Yes, they added nudity but was that remotely necessary?

The ending was also very weak with Barb just standing there even though she was holding a gun and could have run. They had a perfectly good movie from which to base this movie on and they still managed to botch it up. I really do wonder about all these direct-to-DVD horror movies that have no reasons for being made and can only trick people into buying because there are no reviews.
