Day Of The Dead (1)

This is going to be a short review for the simple reason that it was too awful to watch. It rates a 1 - unwatchable. I don't know what happens in the end because I can guess, and I've got better things to do like getting to know my blender.

It is the expected story - army seals off a town where everyone is turning into zombies. Its the expected characters - cute army chick, cute research doctor (who will, its expected, really be the bad guy), cute family members. But how could they make a film so bad?

What is not expected os the dire acting, of both the heros and, unbelievably, the zombies. I would have never thought that the acting ability of a zombie was worth mentioning, until I discovered that it could actually be done very very badly. The story so is weak that it if there was even one good line in the film, it isn't worth getting to. The make up, the way that the zombies are always in yellow light, screen flicker filming, and even the effects are useless.

This could almost be a comedy if it didn't try to be scary and serious, and its not so unbelievably bad that it goes right around the scale to being good. It is just a waste of DVD plastic and people's time - don't' watch it!

If you want a good blood and guts horror, watch 30 Days Of Night.
