... View More"Apocalisse Zero - Anger of the Dead" and "Age of the Dead" are both the same Uwe Boll production. A virus or youth protesting causes a zombie outbreak. We poorly follow two subplots. One is about Alice who is pregnant and lost her daughter to a zombie snack. She hooks up with Steve and Peter and apparently drive around through Europe for four months as we get a "four months later" tag. Meanwhile another man is experimenting with a woman, possibly a patient zero, and in spite of her importance, she seems to be a sex toy based on the brief scenes of guys straightening out their pants when they leave her. The two subplots come together as we discover the proverbial ferry taking people away to an uninfected island.There are not a lot of characters. The few that exist are boring and don't talk much. We don't get to know these people.Guide: Implied sex, nudity (Désirée Giorgetti)
... View MoreComplete garbage. Same horrible special effects and makeup. Acting by most of the actors was terrible. Zombies were ridiculously cheesy. Just another cheap horrible zombie film. Why do people keep making these things the same horrible way? Everyone is trashing this one particular zombie film and these producers thought"hey let's do the exact same thing they did"! Unlikable characters survive together after well it's not clear what happened but now there's zombies and medical experiments on humans. The story jumps back and forth a lot and is easy to get confused as to what is going on.The camera angles were also pretty bad too. Only good thing I can say about this film is the music score was decent.
... View MoreFirst upon viewing this movie it looked to me to be another bad British horror film. It comes close, but not quite. From what I remember it involves a mass evacuation, a woman involved and then captured and finally released from a lab, a mercenary of sorts that turns on one of his own for disloyalty, and then a couple and a man that are escaping into the country side. Of the latter, a scene plays out where a man must choose to shoot his wife - a revolver is given to him to finish the job. This scene seemed a bit redundant for what was already bad - as if it add more cynicism to an otherwise stoic plot with angry, bitchy, bitter characters that must remain stubborn in willing to survive. I will apologize for saying it like it is a bad thing; but watching enough of these films leads me to believe this one will be nothing new and will play out the same. I stopped watching about halfway through and reclaimed about forty-five minutes that I would have lost otherwise.I do not recommend this film.Originally posted to Orion Age (http://www.orionphysics.com/?p=10770).
... View MoreHorror movies today survive on effects budgets and the number of graphic deaths on screen--unfortunately. But bad acting is death. To see bad acting in a film of any genre is death, this because the audience immediately doesn't believe the behavior they're seeing. Luckily this movie doesn't discount that important fact. Here, the cast is very strong and they assist the mediocre story past its dubious outcomes and character motivations. The zombies who run rampant are eclipsed by a cast of humans more messed up and nasty than most. Aaron Stielstra (as a demented, sadistic warlord) is not to be forgotten, as are attractive leads Roberta Sparta and Marius Bizau, both lending gravity to the usual doomed zombie escape- plans. Desiree' Giorgetti is memorable as the movie's damaged mute prisoner. Despite some melodramatic music pieces and the fact that the protagonist seriously lacks Mommy skills--due to the script--the movie has an excellent pace and is beautifully photographed. Carlo Diamantini's makeup is to be applauded, as well. Some dodgy locations may bewilder viewers accustomed to seeing familiar American sights, but the overall nightmare-fantasy quality to the movie will hopefully silence continuity geeks. Geeks who should be grateful for the acting, rather than squealing about occasional weird-looking license plates. Overall, a strong and vivid flick. But without its equally vivid cast, may not have survived exile to the Walmart bin. Check it out!
