Deadlocked

Let's cut to the chase, this is no hidden gem...actors reading off cue cards. ever seen a dubbed movie where the dub voices are out of sync..its not a dubbed movie though, it's living wooden planks talking in an elevator, i think the elevator is more professional, check out the cops dialogue and uniform oh dear. ever seen Greg Sestero in the 2003 The Room, or an ed wood movie, this is not a so bad it's good though.

Remember when you were 5 and someone hid and jumped out at you? That was scary! This movie is not.

My only fear is that I would be trapped in an elevator with this group of bad actors and unable to open the door to welcome the zombies.

Here's the first clue you find before the movie starts that let's you know how bad it's going to be.

It's the tagline,'"As a zombie virus breaks out, one ragtag group of trapped elevator passengers must pull together for a fighting chance of survival against an infected rider and the clever horde that awaits them outside."

"Ragtag?" Whenever you see 'ragtag' in a movie description made in the last 40 years, it's almost guaranteed to be a stinker. This movie is no exception. "Must pull together for a fighting chance" - clue number 2.

Considering that the writer/writers thought this was clever and an emotional inducement to watch this tells you that the writing suffers along with the plot.

I did start watching it. Fortunately I was distracted by phone calls, email, messages, and taking out the dogs to potty, so it is possible I missed something incredible. But I'd lay 10 to 1 odds I didn't and the dog's potty was more thrilling.

This movie wouldn't deserve consideration by Rifftrax. It's not that it's so bad it's good; it's just bad.

The entire movie except for 18 minutes takes place in an elevator. A group of strangers are stuck together while a zombie apocalypse breaks out. Absolutely terrible. The acting was even worse.

Starts off reasonably well although the acting could be better.

Low budget zombie makeup consists of some badly applied red lipstick around the mouths and not much in the way of gore and violence but they did ok with the £10,000 budget but no scares, no tension.

The problem is nothing much happens and there are a lot of improbable scenes and silly moments so yet another to add to the list of low budget zombie fails!

The zombie movie trend has been beaten to DEATH,and this is just another so so zombie flick. It has a couple of good jump scares,and the story is OK at best. The police officer could use a little bit of polishing on his acting skills...actually the best actor in the film is Sophie Giberson. I don't think it's higher than a five star rating (at least in my opinion) but it's a good way to blow an hour and twenty minutes if you have nothing else to do. Toodles.
