Warning, Spoilers ahead! Please don't read this if you haven't enjoyed the film yet.Several reviewers have said this is not a horror flick, but I have to disagree strongly.Leaving a good man and his sick daughter behind because she had to pee? Shooting a couple old ladies because they wouldn't give you their gas because they were just trying to survive too? Kicking your own infected girlfriend out on the side of the road to almost certain death? Mind, she became infected because of overwhelming compassion for a sick child. Then, if that is not enough, the younger brother character (Danny) must ultimately shoot his, admittedly repellent older brother character (Brian). And all of these terrible acts are committed by normally law- abiding people who would not dream of doing anything close unless their very lives depended on it?I imagined myself in the situation with my own little brother. How much horror do you people want? This film delivers a boatload if you can drum up a modicum of empathy.That said, it is certainly more of a thinking person's movie than your average slasher fan's.

This was a missed opportunity to write, what could have been an intriguing movie. The opening scene clearly delineates the tempo, which crawls rather than moves, of the movie and also the future occurrences. The predictability is bothersome and transparent. The characters are shallowly presented and highly unlikable, and and in my opinion, frankly deserved whatever happened to them. An adequate synopsis of the title would be: Beer swilling protagonist imbecile drives around the desert, drinks, drinks more, acts like an imbecile some more and then expires. As far as the ending it appears more likely the money for the project ended, once they saw what had been printed.

Brothers Danny (Lou Taylor Pucci) and Brian (Chris Pine) are traveling in a viral apocalyptic world with Bobby (Piper Perabo) and Kate (Emily VanCamp). They have rules. Avoid the infected. Disinfect anything they touched in the last 24 hours. The sick are already dead. They run into Frank (Christopher Meloni) who is out of gas, but his daughter Jodie (Kiernan Shipka) is infected. When their car is damaged beyond repair, they join up with Frank and his daughter to find a rumored cure. Things don't turn out and the quartet moves on to encounter others.This movie drops the audience into a world after everything has already gone to hell. The start is too pedestrian. I get the idea is to make a low budget indie. However the movie needs to start with action. It needs to give a good reason why the quartet is on the trip in the first place. Danny's explanation seems so childish. Traveling would logically seem to be a dangerous thing to do. There are just a lot of questionable things that the people keep doing. These idiots are just not likable. They keep doing stupid things. Brian almost crash two cars on the open road because he's an idiot. Brian is a domineering angry Ahole and it drives me crazy. Why is he poking around in the pool? Then just for more idiocy, he drives a golf cart just as bad. They lay out rules and yet they are all ignored. These people should have seen it all and yet they are wildly emotional about everything. These people suffer from self-inflicted wounds and it makes it difficult to root for them.

Nice little thriller starring a relatively small cast. Chris Pine and Lou Taylor Pucci are brothers trying to survive in a world that has been and is being wipe out from some-kind of virus. Of the two Pine shines way much better.Piper Perabo and Emily VanCamp are the girlfriends. Of the two Perabo stands out somewhat. Christopher Meloni did a great turn as a desperate father trying to get his sick/infested daughter to a safe facility and have her seen by some doctor. Mark Moses has a very good cameo bit as the doctor who has given up big time in finding a cure and prefers a most tragic way to end things.A scary movie without that much scares.? More suspense and drama then anything else. And not that gory at all!. I was very surprised. it kept my attention even though it is never fully explained what truly has happen to the world in general and where is it that they are going. Even at it's short running time, it is still worth a look.
