The Burning Dead

First, before starting anything, the fact that I even talked myself into watching this is unbelievable. I've had no expectations for this SyFy recycled movie. I'm pretty sure you can tell why JUST by the title, cover, and entire idea. You have the plot of a couple of characters all meeting together from different locations after a volcano strike, of which unearths volcanic zombies. Yes. Volcanic zombies. First off, the idea, period is just stupid. It's an idea that just doesn't belong, and fails in any form of entertainment. It may succeed in pulling the "audiences'" attention toward the film, but only because it's ridiculous title, cover, etc. will confuse the heck out of some people. The characters in this film, are nowhere near special. They're all literally the highest of clichéd characters you've seen millions of times in this film. They're personalities are honestly hard to watch as they try to be heroic, and strong, but come out hilarious, and not in a good way. We as the audience could literally care less for what these atrocious characters are put through, whether they live or die. We didn't care. The characters even gone as far as becoming unbelievable annoying, and even angering from they're clichéd acts, dreadful dialog, and overall overused, recycled personalities. The whole volcanic eruption involved terrible, terrible CGI, as well as an even horrid idea of actually involving what seemed to be ghosts literally flying out of the volcano, into the ground, uprising the zombies. The zombies looked cheap, in all honesty. The action these zombies take, as well, doesn't make any sense. The film also has this utterly annoying "adventure" soundtrack that plagues repetitively, making this film more annoying than it already was..

In conclusion, what a mess of a film.. everything was truly bad.. overused characters, recycled SyFy plot, and overall story, terrible, terrible CGI, overall annoying cast, as well as acting. The list goes on.. this film seemed to be more of a joke rather than anything.. and the entire film was just one huge, atrocious mess. Please. Save your time, do not watch this film. I wouldn't recommend it as it succeeds in nothing, and literally fails instead.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen! First zombie movie I have ever seen where the characters only eat intestines and not brains!

Danny Trejo is in the movie for a few minutes but is the star? Horrible acting.

This movie even gives class B movies a bad name.

A bullet to the head doesn't kill these zombies but a fire extinguisher does? Pathetic.

What's up with the dude with the red bandana? I couldn't stop laughing every time I saw him. Hilarious!

Jenny Lin was jumping around with her boobs hanging out looking plain stupid. Please quit acting and do us all a favor.

The acting, writing, editing, and production of this film is so terrible that it almost seems on purpose. How they want anyone to take this movie seriously is beyond me. A lava eruption that looks like fireworks, lava that looks like a blanket being dragged across the ground, and actors that look like they all failed the class and the casting directors felt sorry for them and gave them a shot, this film has it all. Words cannot describe the absolute crapfest that is "The Burning Dead"

I love zombie movies... However, this can't even be considered a zombie movie! The cinematography is absolutely horrible, the visual effects (or lack of) are a waste of time and the acting isn't even good enough to be called, "B Movie" acting! The whole synopsis is a joke. I will give the writer props for thinking of a new and inventive way of thinking about zombies but... The zombies appear when a volcano erupts green rocks. As the rocks hit the ground, suddenly zombies (if you can call them that) appear and rise from the ground. Danny Trejo has been in a lot of, "B Movies" some of which I actually enjoyed, but even this is beneath him. If I was able to rewind the clock and never waste my time watching this movie, I would.

I gave it a "1" because I could not select -1000 .

Special effects remind me of my science fair volcanoes I used to make with baking soda. Really really awful and not even as good as most video game cgi effects. The makeup is just as bad. The zombies are pathetic. Makes me appreciate Walking Dead. Like, wow.

Trevo, my man "Machete", is hilarious as the American Indian with obscure wisdom.

Movie makes zero sense and is barely funny. Who is this for? I will tell you. If you are having a beer party, attending a frat party, etc and are extremely buzzed then MAYBE you can watch this. You will still make fun of every scene, but at least you have an excuse for watching this dumbness.

I have seen bad zombie movies. But this is the worst by far.
