Horror Sangrento

This was a unique and a bit emotional zombie flick. I wasn't expecting much but the ending was kind of a gut punch similar to the ending to train to busan. But overall it as pretty good, we need more fun and original zombies flicks now days.

This movie really got me excited in the first 30 mins it was roaring along from the opening shot of the fish to the attack in the cabin then it suddenly just became really boring, the dialogue was utterly atrocious and the dark cinematography did not help.

It has a new concept and some good gore scenes but sadly that is not enough to sustain a whole movie these days - Very disappointing!

This movie is not for everyone, so if you want to leave the theater (something you might wish you'd be able to do right now, Quarantine and all), do so and don't blame the movie if it doesn't do you, as you'd wish it'd do you. Don't get me wrong, the movie has quite a lot of flaws, but it also has some neat and interesting ideas overall.

The mixing of native americans and immunity and other stuff really elevate this to a degree. The constant uses of cliches drag it back down many times too though. The beginning though is ripe and rich with tensions and suspense. And then it does something unexpected, time wise ... which I thought a good movie. Unfortunately this new setting does not last long and the ticking time bomb goes off as expected ... Samurai swords (cool) and unnecessary sacrifices included ...

The first act of this movie is amazing. It had me thinking that we were in cult classic territory. And then the brakes were applied, hard... the entire second act was an exercise in boredom with some preachiness sprinkled in for seasoning.

The third act opens with a bang and I'm thinking, we're back, redemption time... alas it was not to be, like a microcosm of acts 1 and 2, the brakes are applied and we slow everything down once more and the film meanders to a nonsensical ending.

This is a shame because the potential is clearly there... but every time momentum is built the creators opted to let things simmer down. Now maybe this would have been acceptable if the writing, characters, etc... could stand on their own, but they can't. Characters and story are very poorly developed and you aren't going to end up caring about any of them.

Something that I did enjoy was that our de facto protagonist didn't adhere to the collected, calm, and cool Indian stoic stereotype. It's clear early on that the guy is a wreck and it makes him quite likeable. So kudos for that.

In the end it's worth a watch... when it's good, it's great. Just a shame that the creative team couldn't hit that note consistently.

I only watched this because I signed up to a cheap trial of Shudder and have been working my way through their titles out of boredom...

I reached this title, read the description and thought 'meh, sounds ok' and clicked play.

I was expecting something low budget, low quality and low entertainment but what I got was a pretty decent zombie survival movie. It is (as far as I know) low budget but some of the performances were good enough to keep me engaged and the grandad was in my opinion very cool.

It's a movie I'd happily sit through again.

The downside is that the plot seems to be a bit... random. One minute you have a group of people pulling together and then - not so much. I won't say more because it is entertaining and is worth a viewing but it's a solid midrange movie to pass a couple of hours with.
