GamerTab That was an excellent one.

movieman_kev Gary Kohn as a man of the cloth forced to deal with a sudden zombie outbreak is one of the only things I can actually recommend about this film. His acting chops make him seem to be destined for bigger and better things. The rest of the cast is acceptable for a film of this ilk I guess. But save for Kohn, no real standouts. Also there was absolutely no chemistry between the two leads rendering a few scenes meaningless at best and grating at worst. As far as extremely low-budget zombie films go, I've seen worse (hell thanks to the Catacomb box-set, I've seen worst in the last month) But its not anything special.
StuntsForFilm Let me start by saying I like Zombie movies and I like "bad" movies. This movie was just horrible on all levels. It was Dawn of the Dead but instead of a mall....it was shot in what I assume was the 'directors' mom's house. The 2 lead 'actors' were so bad and the dialog was so childish...it almost became a tolerable bad film. It seemed like a film student that was trying so hard to be artsy but failed miserably. I've been to many wrap parties where pieces of the film were shown to party goers and I cant imagine anyone seeing this and thinking "Wow...we've really got something good here".I paid $4 to rent this on On Demand and I want my money back and my 90 minutes of my life.Top 5 worst movie I've ever sat through.
samitoss Good, solid, entertaining indie fare.When you watch something like this, you have to put it into perspective. Is it a big budget, multi-million dollar film. No. But the cool thing is that it doesn't try to be. My boyfriend bought this because he loves zombie films and gets everything. I really didn't want to see it but then found myself really liking the priest, the girl in the house and the Jehovah's witness. They were like real people and the story was fresh and compelling. I even got quite a few chuckles out of it. It wasn't a bloodfest but rather a story with multiple threads and some nice surprises. The actors were competent but the script was what helped to raise this thing up beyond what I expected.
silveryoga I watch a ton of indie horror flicks so I don't really expect them to be super polished but this one was very cool! Nice story, sweet lines and pretty ambitious. I really liked it. It's raw but it's really well done too. It's got SHAUN OF THE DEAD humor, you know, dark and quirky but also has real drama.Though, I've gotta admit, the coolest thing was the priest with guns. It's also filmed with a grainy, dreamy texture that I liked.All in all, it was a cool was to pass the time. Look, it reminded me of some of the early Evil Dead stuff.
