Awakening

After watching the first Zombie Night (2003) I considered it one of the worst zombie movies I'd ever seen so my watching it's sequel was foolish. I have an insistence of watching full franchises and therefore I dived in expecting the worst.

This is a brand new story with no connection to the first movie and in 3yrs they've clearly learnt a couple of things about film making. Sadly they haven't learnt enough and once again it's flawed at every turn.

With a generic plot there is no point in me even describing you won't see anything you haven't seen before but you'll see it done in a decidedly incompetent way.

Bad, bad, bad.

The Good:

Passable soundtrack

The Bad:

Badly made in every respect

Soundtrack often doesn't fit what's going on

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Contaminating water by throwing zombie corpses in is perfectly logical

Instead of having a sex scene just have a lengthy scene of two people massaging each others butts

Awakening is yet another zombie movie that makes me wonder what its intention was supposed to be. You got the typical "people lost in zombietown" story with 2 gangs trying to survive and building themselves shelter from the zombies who strangely only come out at night. To make it more ridiculous they don't join forces but kind of fight each other which didn't make any sense to me like many other parts of this movie didn't. Many things in this movie are just thrown in the pot and stirred without any logical explanation... best example of the trashy script are the ridiculous sex scenes thrown in with some booby shots all in one passage. The zombies are standard, the gore is minimal, the acting is substandard and the sound of the movie in dialogs is bad. After all it could have been a typical trash-fest with some humor (like the ghettoboy with his cool slangtalk) and zombiegore. Unfortunately the staff couldn't decide which way to go and bored a long way along the road to end up nowhere pretty much. The first ending is as idiotic as in movies like "Stink of flesh" ... meaning it doesn't have an ending. And the added rapture scene is pretty funny, yet thrown into the movie like everything else. There's too many better or at least entertaining in a trashy way movies than this one, so better avoid Awakening.

Awakening (2006) is a horror film from Canada directed by David J Francis film that was released on October 28, 2006 89 minute movie was so boring with all the stupidity and silliness of her I watched this movie via DVD. This movie is too much deficiency, the brightness of this movie is so dark, terrible acting, stupid Zombie !, very cheap dialogue dialogue ... Until I do not care about this movie .. This movie is so boring and just most dialogue, acting the The cast in this movie is so rotten ... Do not watch the movie, which will waste your time ....

Every once and awhile, you'll watch a film that will inspire you, entertain you, move you to tears, have you laughing out loud, and even raise from your seat and make you cheer. This is NOT one of those films. Aside from wishing/hoping that no one outside the people that were involved in the making of this film actually watched it, I'm ashamed this film so brazenly states it's Canadian roots.

Everything about this film was substandard; the poor writing, cinematography, editing, make-up, and especially the acting. I appreciate the fact that you can't overkill another release in the zombie genre....no I take that back. This film did. A very bad release from another Romero wanna-be. Perhaps this would have been successful as a senior year student theatre play, but not as a film...even with a questionable budget. A waste of money, and 80 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

I'll give this a 3 for the effort and because a couple of the actors are good. Over all this is a truly terrible zombie movie. Awful writing, no idea how to actually create a film, bad sound and video, just really bad all the way through. Still you can tell they have a love for the subject they are trying to create (zombie films) and as I said a couple of the actors were good. Most others were bad though or even just plain awful (Tex Watt especially was so cringe inducing we actually watched the credits of this turkey to see who was responsible for such a bad performance).
