I will keep this short and simple. I am a HUGE zombie genre fan. This movie is actually pretty average if you can get past the inappropriate sexual references and content during the first half of the movie. I and I mean I actually thought of turning the rental DVD off twice during the first hour. The one female character actually made me feel like a sicko just watching this. Please for the love of god give me the budget for this movie and I would make something a hell of a lot better. Anyways, this movie is and looks like a TV movie except it has content that would never be allowed on TV. This has to be ten lines so I will continue. Rent this if you are really curious as it will never be on TV, but this is not a gem by any means. I give this movie 4 out of 10.
Inept and lifeless zombie movie. We've seen it all before and usually much much better. Cast does OK with a dumb and derivative script, but only Roshelle Pattison shines as the hero's girlfriend, providing a nicely expressive performance that makes her pain and worry very real. Style is marred by a sub-zero budget, and it shows (i.e., such as the autopsy scene where the camera keeps cutting to character reactions as they watch an alien lifeform coming out of a human victim, but the director never cuts to the lifeform itself, until we see it vaguely scurrying away). Character motivation and development is nonexistent and we never learn to care about any of the characters. This is hum-drum movie-making-by-numbers with very little appeal.
Days of darkness, in the first 10 minutes of film .. I felt that .. I will see a great exiting film .. but, after that I discovered that I was wrong .. absolutely wrong you can see the film .. but after it finished you will find yourself disappointed and you will ask yourself : that is the end ?!! .. and you will feel that you waste 85 minutes without any satisfying .. the film about disease which became everywhere and make people as animals .. people eat each other .. blood in everywhere .. but, there were a few people who are in a good health .. they live in a place where protect them from monsters by some wires only !! the film is not logic and the end was very bad .. so I think when you will watch it .. you will feel that you are uncomfortable ..
I took this movie for New Year party and I think I couldn't make a better choice. I am quite used to watching bad movies (hey, I do my major on 50s sci-fi films), but there's always a movie that sets a new low. A friend of mine made something very similar for like 200 bucks, this stinker cost about 10 000x more money. The only three nice things about this movie are the lighting, Sabrina Gennarino and the fact it really makes you laugh out loud at times. Director has no clue how to set up a plot (basically if you miss the title scene, you have no idea what this is all about), he splices in scenes you have no idea what they mean. What appalled me in a special way was the horrible sound mix - every line is cut sharp before its reverb can finish. You may not spot it right down, but you will feel something is wrong with the sound. Special effects are laughably bad - monster is made of rubber with no animatronics at all, image effects look like made by someone with one day training in After Effects. Gore effects are nice, though.
If you want something REALLY bad for having a great time with friends who cannot stomach older films, get a copy of Day of Darkness. You are guaranteed to have some baaad movie fun.

This is another low budget piece of crap zombie movie from Lionsgate.
A few people hold up in an abandoned military installation after a comet hits the Earth and causes most humans to turn into zombies.There is some talk of reproduction and some poking around in the crotches of the zombies and a bunch of other silly stuff.I guess the genital exams was an attempt to try and do something different in a zombie movie.The DVD box boasts "2 billion zombies" but we end up seeing only about 2 dozen poorly made up zombies in this puke pile of a movie.
The plot doesn't make sense .The gore is phony looking and pretty mild.One set of very small breasts are shown and that's about the most interesting thing this sorry mess of a movie had to offer.
It's to the point once you see those big metal gears turning when the Lionsgate logo starts that you might as well hit the eject button and get the DVD out cause you know it's gonna blow.
