What Still Remains

No seriously. This film is actually more entertaining in a way. It's a low budget suspense thriller which is delivered by a decent cast but it does hit a bunch of clichés, which you will - of course, see coming a mile away and that shows down the pace somewhat when you're just waiting for the obvious to be over and done with.

All in all though, I had fun with it even with the blobs of lazy writing.

So yeah, Walking dead sucks.

I'm not going to lie. I was lured in by the 100% Rotten Tomatoes and the 10/10 ratings here on IMDB. It should have been red flag enough when I saw Mimi Rodgers was in the cast about an end of the world apocalypse (The Rapture, anyone?)

Alas I didn't listen to my own gut feeling and trudged forward. 90 minutes later i sought my sanity and went through reviews more deeply. Blasted quick draw!

Generally speaking, the female lead does a good job with what she's given and Ben, the loyal security lackey, does fine. But everything else is basically regurgitated tropes from movies or TV shows that did it better, more creatively and with a sense of cinematic substance. This was like watching a school project.

I wish I had made the right decision and spent those 90 minutes cleaning my dirty oven, or staring at my couch, or hunting Sphinx wasps in 115 degree weather. As a note, I'm uncertain if Sphinx wasps can survive in 115 degree weather...or for that matter the 90 minutes of this movie.

Like I said earlier: I even came back to delve more deeply into IMDB reviews to see if I had missed something. Which I had. So this is my gift to you - that you might not miss this. Do NOT watch this movie. Rest assured, you'll be more entertained by my review than the movie. And if you're not entertained by my review, I believe I've proven my point.

I have learned over the years that any time I see a review or reviews that continuously name the director and how great he is the red flag will now go up for me. Family, friends, production crew, all are told to hype the movie to get sales (and make sure you mention the director). Run away and save your money.

Lulu Antariksa is the lead here and she is very good. She lives alone in a cabin and is self sufficient. Along comes a man who claims to lead a community of good people. It turns out to be a group of religious fanatics with overtones of A Handmaid's Tale. This material has been done better before in 1984 and Handmaid's Tale. It is worth watching for the performance of the lead actress. She should have a bright future. A 6.5/7

All the reviews are perfect and all of the profiles were just created and have only reviewed this movie. red flags??? not a good movie ok for background noise
