CommentsXp Best movie ever!
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Nigel P The crashing guitars of prom-rock opens this zombie picture, ushering in some semester-related romance between two pristine teens with teeth like gleaming tombstones. To break the mood somewhat, two more teens arrive, all shorts and perfection and squeaky voiced small-talk, ripe with reversed-baseball-capped diluted attitude. As they drive off to wherever, the family-friendly rock music returns. In the car, all four are shown hollering and having, like, a really good time. It is as tedious and appalling an opening as you can imagine. Rolling up at a big house (the main location for the story), the final couple join the gang. One wears shades and drinks beer from a bottle and his girlfriend looks exactly the same as the other females. There are boastful sex jokes and mock provocation and then the rock music is back. It's way past time to hit 'eject' in the DVD, but purely because I've started this review, I decide to persevere.A suspected terrorist attack threatens to tip this bunch out of their back-slapping reverie. I still don't know what any of their names are. A CGI missile is seen to explode overhead and it is back to knuckle-punching, sports talk and everyone calling each other dude. "This whole thing has really got me thinking, you know? About, like, life." Says one gummy hunk. "That's really deep, man," says another, bromance twinkling in his eyes. "He's going to be a great guy some day," says one pearly white lass to another. And the running time rumbles on.This is absolutely my least favourite kind of film. Horrible, awful dialogue you'd find on some daytime US soap from the early 1990s, between manicured, characterless beauties you don't care about enough even to WANT to see them dismembered by the promised living dead (even the zombies, when they eventually arrive, look like they've staggered out of a toothpaste commercial). Someone has actually funded this crap, cast a number of grinning, competent non-entities and put together an utterly soulless, vapid, smug environment when anything approaching horror takes distant second place to divine catwalk idiots arguing about jealousy and flirtation.By the time the zombies, or the 'demented', or whatever the heck they are, arrive, nothing they can do could be enough to redeem this respectable, insipid, gore-free, thrill-free, lamentable soap fare. It doesn't bother me that a corpse lying at the entrance of a pharmacy disappears between scenes; I don't care that the confusing ending sees them both being rescued and not being rescued. An effort is at least made to make the last ten or so minutes exciting, and the finale does at least trey to do something unexpected: not even perfect people have a happy endings. Aside from that, however, this is just a hugely complacent, unambitious film.
Steamy McGeany I saw absolutely no effort put into this film what-so-ever other than overused dramatic camera angles. The movie was cliché as heck, it had very cheesy dialogue, it had the most stupidest moments ever, and there was very little suspense.If you wanted the gory bits of a zombie movie, this is NOT the once for you. There's barely any gore. Just a guy getting his knee cut and dried blood on all of the zombies. Did you guys know that when you get bit, your clothes automatically become torn and shredded? I never knew that until this film showed me. Huh...Most of the characters are either unlikable or do absolutely nothing to help push the plot forward. They only two people who were actually busting butt to help the group survive in the majority of the film were the two dudes, and that black dude REALLY kicked butt, even with a cut knee.But boy, when I said stupid moments, I mean REALLY stupid moments. They we're driving in a van and this zombie girl is just standing on the street, but instead of RUNNING the zombie girl over, they slide off the road and total their vehicle and injure one of their guy's legs... to save a FREAKING ZOMBIE! And there's this one scene where three guys are running from zombies, and one of them gets bit and starts to turn. The other two obviously know that he is going to into a zombie, but do they run? NO! They just stare at him for one full minute while the camera zooms in his face to show how freaky it is when he's transforming. When he finally turns into a zombie, THEN they run! I was literally screaming the whole time, "RUN! FREAKING RUN! OR HIT HIM WITH THAT AXE! YOU HAVE AN AXE! FREAKING PUT HIM DOWN BEFORE HE EATS YOU!"But the ending is just the WORST!!! The worst zombie ending ever! They all think they made it to the helicopter, flying away all safe and sound, but NOOOOO! It was just a DREAM! Instead, the helicopter abandons them on the roof and the last two survivors become zombie country buffet. Freaking clichés... It's like they couldn't decide to put a happy ending or a sad ending, so they decided, "Screw it, let's do both, and make the happy ending all just a dream." Wow. What a slap to the face.Sorry to be blunt, but this movie made me so angry, I HAD to make a review of it.
adi_2002 Three couple gathers at a house to spend time having fun but one phone call from, Howard's father from where the teens enjoy turn into a nightmare because he announces that a terrorist attack took place in New York and missiles have been launched near the city where they are located. Soon they see a dog in front of the house but not an ordinary one, it was infected and they decide too kill it and after that humans that have been in the area transform in a sort kind of zombie and the teens are chased so they have too make a plan to reach to the jeep the get out from there. They do but not for long because Brice sees a little girl and trying to avoid her crushes the car. By foot they manage to get into town and at a pharmacy from an radio finds out that there is a helicopter that take the survivors every day at noon from from a roof near by.It started good even the whole movie is quite well because we feel the despair, the thrill and our heartbeat grows in some sequences this because of the effort of the actors that maid a nice job playing their part quite decent. The only this I disliked was the ending, I was glad too see that two of them could be saved but no they all had to die. Also the actress who plays Taylor (Kayla Ewell) resembles a little with Jessica Biel. Did anyone notice this?
ihearthorrorfilm I have to give the first positive review for this film because the ones available at the moment are terribly close-minded and harsh. The consensus of the current reviews bitch and moan about the ending, which I felt, was incredibly realistic. I actually found that to be a quality most likable about this film is its ability to be realistic for such a low-budget zombie film. By realistic, I mean that the characters are relatable when it comes to their reactions and their fates. They make choices and they die like one actually would given there be a zombie apocalypse. It is difficult to write a zombie film that stands out anymore due to our zombie obsessions. That being said, sometimes its fun just to watch a film that portrays that very situation, play out naturally without there being something totally new and never-before-seen. CHILL OUT people!! It's a low-budget zombie film! I don't know why people expect so much from films, especially the low-budge indies. If you're not pretentious and/or jaded, but you like a fun zombie apocalypse film, then you will probably have a fun Sunday afternoon watching The Demented. Plus, let me just point out that the zombie sleeping thing was incredibly creative and really very creepy in my opinion. That was a super cool new zombie characteristic, mad props to the writers on that.Please like me on Facebook!
