This film is pretty good. You might find it slow if you're used to action films but if you prefer more character based films you should like this. I was a little sceptical to begin with as the costumes looked a bit out of kilter with the era, especially the sister's 'suit jacket' after they rescued her. Also, I had to look up the word "exit" as it felt too modern (ok, so I'm a pedant) but it was first used in c.1580, so go researchers. I love Brian Cox who did the voice over but wondered why they just didn't use Mark Gibson to do it. All in all, this is worth a watch if you like zombie films but want a refreshing take on the genre.

Settled down to watch this today and it really is a couple of hours of my life I will never get back.I just didn't enjoy it... I had no connection with the characters and the zombies weren't particularly scary which makes the whole film kind of pointless when you don't care if the main character gets killed.The story is pretty lame too and the opening scenes don't really put anything into context.All in all not to good an experience. The film only cost $300'000 to make and to be honest you can see it in the costumes and make up. I lost interest once the main character pulled on what resembled a 20th Century Biker jacket when it is set during the ACW?

This film is serious, artful, and epic. Being a fan of zombies, I've seen my share of terrible movies just because they contain the walking dead. This is definitely not one of them.Exit Humanity is a story of redemption, rebirth, and the horrors that come from not the supernatural horrors stalking the hills of Tennessee, but of the cruelty of man and the poison that resides within.This film is the classic maturation/acceptance story. Far from the drek that is continually pumped out of the low budget horror genre in which people die gruesomely as the main plot device, Exit Humanity takes the concept that zombies are only the setting for the real storyline. What we are treated to is a deeper look into the characters and the lingering touch of haunting past deeds.We are presented with many thought-provoking instances and artistic licensing that reflects more enjoyment that the typical rend and tear zombie film. The ending scene is poetry, a mirror image, two sides of a coin, the paths of damnation and salvation catching briefly a glimpse of each other.This movie is beautiful and deserves nothing less than the highest rating. If you enjoy the heroic journey or the Freud/Jungian aspects of mythology given visual production, this is the movie for you.

I knew I was in for a treat when within the first 5 minutes of this film I was engrossed in it. "Exit Humanity" is a very well written film within the zombie genre. Generally, I love zombie films. Some are hit and miss, others like this one, grab my attention right away. The story, the practical effects, costuming, and even the settings were top notch. Setting the film just after the U.S. Civil War was a stroke of genius. So what if it makes it a period film... it was a very well executed period film. At the risk of repeating myself, I think the execution of the storyline deserves mentioning again, of course, without giving any spoilers. The story itself is rather well written, with plenty of points to hit on one's emotions. While it is a zombie film, there are some moments that do tug at the heart strings a little and we catch more than a hint of the darker side of man. Conclusion: 9/10 from me. The effects could've been just a tad better, the story did move a little slow though, and I would've liked to seen something more with the film's ending. Overall, I am so glad that I added this film to my collection.
