First off this is a bro film, a bro his buddy's lots of buddies a camera and a script. Starting off I don't know where the movie stats they have this big half hour monologue about the war and what caused the zombies but its just a bunch of fat people going hunting no zombies. Finally we see police and soldiers goateed hab shab uniformed sent out to protect the shelter. Well didn't the screenwriter have a buddy in the army or something who could've added some jargon? Even Tucker MAX (I hope they served beer in hell/assholes finish first) bragged about his soldier buddies calling people cock-holsters. Here the police preach to the soldiers about deadly force. No soldiers call it R.O.E rules of engagement; the police call it use of force. Anyhow the zombie make up is black and white. The movie fails to deal with man dealing with man during the outbreak its just fat zombies running around. I did like the camera work, felt like you were confused and in the middle of it.

My dad works with "Michelle" from the movie, and that's how I got around to seeing it. Michelle and her husband were producers on the movie, and her husband helped do the music, so they got acting bits. All of the actors were locals, and the "zombies" were random people that answered to an ad in the paper.The producers pulled every string they could to put the movie together, and for low, LOW budget, it's not too bad.AND I'M SURE IF YOU SAW THE MOVIE YOU WANT SOME THINGS EXPLAINED MORE: While they did manage to get a street blocked off for the zombie scene, they didn't have a lot of time to prep for filming it.The thing with the dog - there were alternate takes where the dog had to be put down, etc. but it just wouldn't do things on cue, which is why the dog doesn't leave with Michelle after a fuss is made over it.

So I sat down with my girlfriend and watched this film we rented from the local video store, we both love zombie films so we figured it has to be at least decent right? Well that is a yes and no scenario.Here we have a film made for no money, and it starts off almost one year into the zombie apocalypse with a woman writing in her journal about the events that led to the dreaded zombiegeddon. Soon after we are wound backwards to the day it all started and these two buddies are out on a drinking shooting spree to blow off steam. (I don't think mixing alcohol and guns was a very smart thing to do here, but whatever it isn't really the point.) As the day progresses further along an explosion rocks the city and suddenly things are thrown into chaos. As the city is evacuated we are treated to one of the most annoying performances from some woman chastising her husband about not asking for directions, and the over used story arc of a little girl who lost her mom, at this point my girlfriend and I were praying these people were eaten alive in the most painful of manners.The second most annoying story or characters have to be the National Guard soldiers. As a member of the guard I almost felt insulted. I say almost because at least they were good for laugh.Now nearly 20 some minutes have gone by and not one zombie pops up on screen. We were about to turn it off when finally the zombies show up and tear some poor cop to shreds. All that time to get to the good stuff, and then the film did get better from there. After that scene we immediately return to the traffic jam full of evacuees and the zombies begin to invade and attack. This ladies and gentlemen is the single best sequence of the entire film. The zombies tear through the unsuspecting motorists as violently as possible and the gore delivers when some poor woman has her throat torn out. The girlfriend and I finally started to get interested in the film, but that was as good as it gets. As the rest of the film played on each action sequence tried to get the same momentum going but fell short. What a shame as it started to get much better but ended up falling flat.The question is, would I recommend this film? Give it a rent if you can find it. Just be prepared to sit it out before the film actually begins to build momentum. Better luck next time, if there is a next.

The video and audio quality is sub-par. To me, it felt like a home video reminiscent of something you'd see taken at the relatives place on Thanksgiving Day.The acting is amateurish, forced, and seemingly barely rehearsed. The screenplay/dialog is poorly written.You just know a movie is going to blow when 50% of the opening credits go to special FX techs, the dude who cast "extras" for zombies, and the writer/director/editor is credited with about a half of a dozen other billets.Usually, I'd say that a movie this horrible is worth watching for the simple entertainment of pointing and laughing at how bad it is... but the whole thing from start to finish is mind numbingly dull.
