Yet another "what wouldn't you do in this situation" movie
20 May 2008
Warning: Spoilers
Some people are falling for the method in how they represented the story but to me it seemed like they couldn't decide if that's the way they wanted to tell it or not. The premise is that it's a video that one of the characters edited together from all the footage they got. However, half of it is edited as if a pro edited the film yet they retain all the little blips of the camera cutting off - they really blip all right. If they stuck to one format they would've done all right.

Now for the characters it's the usual do the dumbest thing you could think of at the moment most of the time. How many times do characters need to hear to shoot them in the head to learn it? How many rounds of ammo do they use on a 5 on one zombie situation when any kind of the blow to the head would do? Wait, instead of a blow to the head how about an even more difficult task of a defibrillator to the head just to show special effects? Nothing matches up either. They learn that someone is bitten and they take a good 30 minutes to go into the house? Also, how preachy is this thing? They're zombies yet throughout the entire movie they go on about how they're killing people and how bad they feel. This and that. How many times did someone say they didn't want the gun because "it's too easy"? Then a freaking bow and arrow? Come on.

This movie had potential but just went plain stupid. The only reason to watch this is for the 5 minutes or so with the Amish guy.
