Infected

I can't believe all these actors agreed to make this movie. Everything is awful: acting, story, effects. Jokes are bad too. Story goes to nowhere. From the first ten minutes you can say how it will end. Director tried to attract our attention with the help of Michael Madsen(and it kinda worked).

Oh, and one more thing: zombies look very sick, even for them. I hope people won't be able to watch this movie and damage their brains.

P.S

Comparing this movie with other recent low-budget movies, I can say that it's one of the worst horror film in years.

A group of men get together to hunt in the woods at the same time a virus outbreak occurs turning people into flesh eating zombies.

Michael Madsen stars in this one and he is in this thing the whole time which is rare for him. William Forsythe is in this as well and he looks like he could be playing a Civil War hero with his hair. When you got both of them talking to each other you wonder whose throat has the most frogs stuck in them. You want them both to clear their throats I mean they are drinking enough alcohol on screen to do the job.

The film is just awful right from the acting to the wonderful makeup. Zombie makeup was a white foundation with messy red lipstick. They do a bad Night Of The Living Dead and then in the last ten minutes they cram three seasons of The Walking Dead, The Last Man On Earth and they even take a Mad Max spin.

I think this film infected my comp'*\

This is not entertainment, it's anti-tainment. If you've rented this for say 99p, I'd say you'd have a strong case for getting your money back under the Sale of Goods Act, because it is not fit for purpose. You won't even enjoy this if you enjoy bad horror films, because this is not bad in a good-natured, well meaning way - it's bad in a needing-to-go-to-the-dentist-for-a-filling kind of way.

Mundane. Boring. Utterly devoid of interest, it is something that must be merely endured. If you've had the misfortune to buy this, I urge you to destroy it without watching it. Take your time about it, it's the only way you're going to have any fun here. A lot of people were involved in making this film, yet astoundingly not one of them seems to have thought "hold on, this is crap, isn't it?" All of these people should be stripped of whatever filmic credentials they possess and prevented from working in the industry again, under threat of lengthy jail time. Their equipment should be slowly crushed in front of them, until they get the message: "this is not for you - find something else to do. Shame on you. Shame on you." As for Madsen and Forsythe's involvement.....I am flabbergasted. I can only assume somebody's got a big sheaf of very incriminating photos indeed locked away in a safety deposit box somewhere.

I found myself wanting to fast forward to get to the adverts, only to realise there were none. I longed for the superior plot, dialogue, casting and scoring of say, your average Go Compare advert.

There are the boring movies, there are the bad movies, this is bad and boring at the same time. And believe me, after watching fan made Star Trek series this week, I know about bad acting. This was worse.

You have to know when Michael Madsen gets a role in anything these days that you are not going to like it, but I had some hopes for William Forsythe. They both act their usual old tough routine, only without any pathos or interest. The special effects are what you and I would make in a garage, the dialog and script in general are abysmal. I don't know how to bring it to you: there is nothing in this film that was even remotely average. Everything was bad. And not that funny bad that you can laugh at while drinking a beer, but that boring life sucking bad that one should to the utmost to avoid.

So bottom line: run away from this. If you see it on someone's harddrive, delete it, if you see it on a movie shelf, accidentally set it on fire. It will save lives!

Being a huge zombie aficionado, I basically devour - no put intended - just everything that includes zombies. Unfortunately the zombie market is swamped with releases that are questionable and probably shouldn't have had seen the light of day.

As was the case with "Infected" (aka "Infection Z"). And I assume that the "Infection Z" title is a bad attempt to cash in on the blockbuster "World War Z" movie. But regardless of the reason, then this movie was really not worth the effort.

The zombies in the movie were far in between shots, and they weren't actually zombies as in the sense of being shambling and decaying. Well, it does make sense if this is the first stages of decay. But still, with the ridiculous sounds they were making, it was more of a spoof on the zombie genre than it was actually appearing as a proper, serious movie.

And as hard as it is to take Michael Madsen seriously, then it came even more difficult given the horrible hat he was wearing just about 99% of the entire movie. That hat was just ridiculous to look at.

The most uplifting part about "Infected" was perhaps that William Forsythe was in the movie, but it was hardly anywhere remotely near enough to make it worthwhile suffering through the entire movie. I did manage to stick with the movie to the very end, hoping that there would be just one moment to make it worth it, but there wasn't such an occurrence.

The DVD movie I received from Amazon was titled "Infection Z" and it had a very apocalyptic image of a metropolis in ruin and flames on the back cover. This was the worst kind of misleading imagery ever. Because the entire movie takes places at an isolated homestead somewhere out in a forest in the middle of nowhere.

What can I say about "Infected"? Well, stay well clear of it, or you might be infected with a bad case of boredom.
