You won't be disappointed!

From my favorite movies..

Don't listen to the negative reviews

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

My first review of a movie...For fans of Max Brooks and/or conspiracy theorists.Night of the Living Dead's influence is no more obvious than when the character Jason says "Did you ever see that movie.. the black guy and the.. zombies? Those people in that house?" to character Frank Chambers. And Ken Edwards does do a good job as Frank Chambers, taking charge of a situation we think we know all too well: the zombiegeddon.No great special effects, but some nice thought-out strategy, if such an unlikely event were to ever occur. Seems the filmmakers didn't really have the money to pull off the battle scenes they needed, but the general atmosphere and mood is great. A bit more blood would've helped things along nicely.(A slight critique - if you're going to have a "personal video diary" throughout the film, why not make it shakycam so it doesn't seem the same quality as everything else?)

I clicked the spoiler button just to avoid getting blacklisted, 'cause I'm not sure what exactly is considered a spoiler nowadays.In any event this film is obviously extremely low budget. It's shot with a cam or something, and the lighting and sound effects are never at any consistent level. Nevertheless, those involved make the most of the low budget they're working with, putting down a film which was compelling enough to keep me watching through to the end.It's of course extremely derivative, coming up with it's own take on the recent resurgence of zombie films in the last few years. I can actually imagine if this film got a professional re-write and a more experienced cast and crew, this would make for an entertaining bigger budget horror film, worthy of a series...

Day X starts off fast with a single individual becoming enraged and killing a coworker without any explanation as to why. Soon afterwords a group of people in a parking garage become infected and attack our main character Frank Chambers. These attackers have not died and come back to life but it is explained later that an airborne virus scrambles the brain and affects the blood making those infected with it hunger for the flesh of the living.The locations used in Day X are very cool. You'll see a lot of run down industrial warehouse interiors and exteriors, and only a few lush garden like settings. I'm guessing they didn't have to build a set for this film at all. There are some locations used that could have been explored more but that may have taken away from the fast paced storyline. I don't like to give away the whole movie in written format but the story doesn't drag at any point in the movie, it does however end rather abruptly. Maybe that was the filmmakers intent to get a sequel in the works. The make up effects are good, some of the infected have a very nasty gory look while others have a quick dirty chimney sweep look.The CG is not pretty but it's very lightly used and not on screen long. Sound effects are a little fake towards the beginning of Day X but later on with shot guns and other louder guns they sound effects are perfect. Some of the actors are re-dubbed, not due to language differences but most likely due to on set audio issues. The dialog feels a little forced from some of the actors while others simply had too much foul language written for their character. The camera work is really professional for an indie film. The making of feature shows some of the lengths the camera men went took to get some really cool shots. Over all I enjoyed watching this mix of horror with sci-fi. I would recommend this to anyone that enjoyed Dead and Deader, 28 Days/Weeks Later or Undead.

I really did enjoy this film.. It was both enthralling, funny, and exhilarating. the combination of suspense, and comic relief was well balanced.. The make up and costumes were intense. The plot in reality makes you wonder what the GOVERNMENT really would do to its own with out any warning ... I love Frank Chambers and his control... I also found amusement with the young prodigy "antdote" I have been looking for this Movie to come out for over a year.... OMG... I can't wait until November.... Those of you who have not had the chance to see this "horror" I can only say it is the LIVING DEAD meets OUTBREAK.. Enough gore for the freaky side and scifi Xfiles rift for the scifi junky.. It does NOT drag on like some films. Enjoy
