I actually had a hard time remembering that this IS an indie film - better than indie and yet still not 'major' production house - Biohazardous delivers a fun time with a punch... a bloody gorey punch that's bound for your veins!
Excellent sound effects and smooth dialogue helps the clear, steady picture work it's magic and make you forget it's indie... The music was well done and very appropriate per scene, albeit it was a bit too quiet on occasion and could have used some background music. The acting was most definately above average for indie films and some of these young stars just may be headed for bigger things. And finally, the story. Innovative with a familiar ring. Part 'the stand' and part 'night of the living dead' but all twisted around in it's own path.
The closeup of the eyeball on the scientist as he dies, the reference to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and the backstory were wonderful elements. But perhaps the most surprising of all [and i mean this in the best way] was the fact that i enjoyed it immensely - and it was a gore fest in the truest sense of the word. I normally don't like the gore but found myself both amused and entertained.
And to make matters worse, i let the 6 year old watch it not knowing exactly how gory it would get - and he LOVED it! I try covering his eyes while the zombies are tearing the flesh off the newly dead and he's pushing me away saying 'wow', 'wicked', and my favorite 'that was just sick' with a big cheesy grin...
If a jaded adult horror fan and innocent beginning young fan can both enjoy it, i'm going to have to say that YOU will too!! Rating? Without a doubt 4 stars - it's not in theaters, so you might want to hunt down a copy asap for the collection, especially if you are a gorehound or zombie lover!
