Fading of the Cries

I know there are fans of this film, but is not my case. Even when I saw FX directly from Videocopilot tutorials for AE that I could make much better than the film, there is no storyline in this movie. I found it very bored and some characters don't have any personality. I think that director/writer Brian A. Metcalf needs some lessons of how to make a sci-fi movie like a pro and not like an amateur project of college, full of shaking, bad movement displacement, bad lightning and so on.

Another bad point of this movie is that a lot of explanations are missed. Come on!! Mr. Director, my imagination doesn't work as yours!. Maybe such answers are still flying in his head.

Nonsense ending with guess what… BAD ACTORS TOO!!. Thomas Ian Nicholas .. American Pie times are over... so as you are… . I wish you better luck in your next film.

I was duped into watching this film by some of the good reviews I read. They are false. I was expecting a 'made for cable' 2nd rate quality movie. This thing is 4th rate. The Pro's are that it is in English and does not require subtitles. The background music is tolerable. The credits were displayed in an attractive font. The actors appear to know their lines, and the crew members do not walk into the scenes.

Aside from that, this film is about as bad as you can get without being so bad that it is funny in an ironic way.

Don't waste your time. Do not believe any reviews over 2 stars. I wish I knew of something equally bad to compare it to, but I cannot remember the last time I saw something this bad.

Right what would you get if you had a £10 budget, rubbish CGI people, people that have never stepped foot in an acting class, a director out of there senses and production who are apparently drunk? The simple answer is this film. No one can give me back the time this film has robbed me of. It is certainly the worst film i have ever watched, and i have watched many. I love films from many different genres, but I'm always up for anything with action, occult and horror references. This film however bobbles all over the place, between really awful acting, terrible effects and a rambling strange and often incomprehensible story. People will say this is a B movie but really it can't even merit that! the characters are so wooden i think they came pre varnished. All you are really left with is sitting there thinking, how the hell did i fall into the trap of paying to watch that? Trust me don't pay to watch it, don't even watch it when its available for free, there are many more worth while things to do with your time like counting dust particles or individually plucking the hairs from your toes!

This movie is awful in every point of view: -- Really boring, unexciting storyline. -- Horrible acting. Non of the actors put some character-deepness into his / her role. -- Special effects are poor (even considering that it's a low budget movie). Main reason is that everything is so fast and cheesy, that you can't enjoy a single action scene.... you basically have to make up yourself AFTER the scene, what exactly happened in that one. -- Soundtrack is only consisting of standard high frequency horror noise... which was a pain in the ass... -- Balance between the volume of speak / music is bad. Takes a lot of concentration to listen to those (mostly simple and ridiculous) dialogs. Subtitles are recommended... --Most importantly: The zombies in this movie are NOT slow, scary and relentless. They're the opposite, which is another big contra.

Brian A. Metcalf has in under 90 minutes managed to use every cliché from classic the horror and fantasy movies and yet manages to go against everything that makes up a compelling movie for any fan of the genre.

The script, to begin with, is a horrible mess starting off with a narrative ego within a flashback of many making parts of the story over explicit whilst absolutely impossible to engage in. The fact is that it's very hard to grasp (or care) what story line is important and which are less so until the far to drawn-out ending.

The characters act inconsistently all over and the very same threats that oppose them are as often deadly in one scene to be ridiculously easy to defeat in the next.

The scenography and the special effects are flat and ugly and the fighting scenes (there's A LOT of them) mainly consist of monsters running straight into swords.

I think that Metcalf was aiming for a mix of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Night of the Living Dead" but ended up with Uwe Boll's "Dungeons and Dragons" mixing with "Resident Evil" (the first of the video games, if you remember the script and acting in that).

It made me sad to see Brad Dourif wading around in this crap and not even he manages to be free of its stench.
