Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
lifeofjojo There's not much original to be seen here, but it isn't all bad. The acting is workmanlike. Most people are unlikely to be scared, and I personally think they could have improved the movie by making nearly all of it take place within the confines of the building they were broadcasting from.Also, the setup at the beginning of the movie is very unnecessary and could have been better achieved by hearsay, caller's on the radio, etc. That being said, it is a watchable movie, but be prepared for a cliché, we didn't really try too much, ending.
Uriah43 During a crowded basketball game four terrorists break into the ventilation room of the gymnasium and contaminate the air supply with a deadly new virus. Unfortunately for them, they accidentally infect themselves in the process as well. However, having accomplished their main objective they then head to a nearby radio station to announce their hate-filled message to the world. Meanwhile, at the radio station a talk show host named "Logan Burnhardt" (Bill Moseley) and his partner, "Gil" (David Moscow) are on the air discussing the topic of the day when reports begin to come in by local listeners describing the zombie epidemic which is rapidly spreading out of control. Anyway, this film has several good things going for it. Bill Mosely, David Moscow, Joshua Feinman (as "Burt") and the red-haired vixen, Patricia Tallman (as "Lucy") all put in outstanding performances. The action was brisk and the plot was quite interesting as well. In short, this is definitely worth viewing for those who enjoy a good zombie film. As a side note, if one has some time on their hands this might also go well as a double-feature with a similar film of this type called, "Pontypool". I found both to be quite enjoyable.
kclipper Lets face it. There are now thousands of genre films, T.V series and shorts all dealing with the same material in 'Dawn Of The Dead', 'Demons', and '28 Days Later'. Sequel after sequel and so on and so forth. This low budgeter, no matter how much political humanitarian themes that is explores still belongs in that category. An always over-the-top Bill Moseley makes the starring role as a popular radio show host who just happens to be running his show during a post 911 terroristic plot to turn people into rabid, crazed maniacs who run around the city infecting others through scratches, bites...etc. He continues to keep his audience informed as he tries to save his family and eventually comes face to face with the men responsible. Suspense and intrigue is the focus rather than blood and gore, and some good performances dominate, but this is otherwise routine stuff with a climatic ending punctuated with some statements on man's evil toward man. Due to the limited budget, most of the action is contained to indoors and unpopulated streets. It would have been better off as a gore-fest and left at that. When are filmmakers going to realize that this genre has been seriously exhausted? Bill Moseley is a tremendous talent who is continuously wasted on low budget genre clones and bit parts.
Kellie Stewart This movie was a bit about the damage mankind does to each other. It make a point about our work toward chemical warfare and the intent to use those chemicals against a race of others taking only their race into account. A race, regardless of political or religious belief is ultimately mostly made up of innocents. When we make war on each other, we attack a race, not the specific people that are warring against us. This movie has the same effect as someone with a gun in their own house having it used against them in a robbery. We do not always use things as they were intended to be used. This movie makes us reflect on the lack of discrimination when it comes to hate. Hate can consume the innocent along with the guilty. The other reviews speak about the movie itself. This movie to me was a suspenseful reflection of the human race.
