Featured reviews
Overall i did like this movie, and hope more directors start going back to more make-up for their horror movies. Its a dying art form that's being lost to CGI and Computers to edit in parts and Add effects.
Story: definitely unique and different. Not just survivors wandering around. They actually have a clear mission: kill the master of these monsters.
Acting: pretty good for an indie. Could've used some more emotion at times.
Cinematography: beautiful. A bit too many closeups but you do get some nice wide shots every once in a while, and regardless, it always looks good.
Special Effects: this is where it really shines. No computer crap. People get dissected, and the zombies look freaking amaze-balls.
Sound: somebody spent some time here. Very detailed. Nothing sounds off or cheap.
Music: like a real Hollywood movie. So much better than most Indies.
So to sum up, I'd give it a go. The effects alone are worth seeing but it has plenty beyond that too.
I gotta be honest it sicked me out a little bit. Considering it was independent I wasn't expecting to be so grossed out by it. However I am glad it was made and fans of gory zombie movies I think will be really into it. I consider this title ambitious especially for an independent film, but due to it's gruesome nature I just don't think I can rewatch it, but maybe I will.
This was a low-to-no budget indie horror film. Where it doesn't show is in the effects and the score. Both of which are excellent. The audio and visual effects people get a gold star.
The concept of the film is interesting, though it never really pans out. I was left wanting to know more.
The camera-work -- really, the editing, is less than desirable. Mostly the quick cuts to and fro. As another reviewer mentioned, the effects are fantastic, but you only see a few moments before cut-cut-pan-cut.
The writing was good. The acting was acceptable. Some scenes were better than others. A few over-acting moments, and some with not enough depth and emotion. But who are we kidding? The same could be said about Kristen Stewart.
A solid 5, and a great effort from all involved.
