Good concept, poorly executed.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Reality TV is something I wish would go away, but likely it's not. Doomed is about Survival Island 2020, where contestants go to battle zombies. Could anything go wrong? Think Jurassic Park - didn't something go wrong in every single movie? Well part of what's wrong with this is directing, acting, budget, special effects. There are only two kinds of zombie movies: Good and Bad. Bad is what this is.

my girlfriend bought it from Tesco fro a pound and what monstrously bad film it is. i think i could make a better film with a budget of 50p, i mean come on you can See down the barrel of the sawed off shotgun and can see the person holding it at the other end and the Katana sword is under the "super zombie's" arm towards the film. I've seen better acting in a child's nativity play, the same group of people are used for every zombie attack scene, and even then their wearing Halloween masks. but I'm glad i got it because i can truly say i have seen the worst film in cinema history.

I am not a "Survivor" fan. I find all those game boring. But, come up with a "Survivor" episode where you have to escape a bunch of zombies to win the prize, and I'll be glued to the set.Forget the story here, what there is of it has so many holes it looks like Swiss cheese, and the dialog is rehashed from other low budget films.In fact, halfway through a hot girl called looking for a shoulder to cry on and I muted the sound and read the subtitles while we talked. I guess everyone else was out partying, and I was the only one left. I didn't miss a thing. That's how heavy this was.Bottom line, the only person in this film with any experience was Mary Christina Brown. But the fact that there was no nudity, and no gore made this one zombie film to pass on - even if you see it free.

"Doomed" is a rather interesting and enjoyable zombie romp.**SPOILERS**On a deserted island, Sybil, (Mary Christina Brown) Reese, (Steve Cryen) Leigh, (Sarah Diaz) Wes, (Aaron Gaffey) Trey Dog, (Andre McCoy) Boyle, (Ward Roberts) Conrad, (Drew Russell) Kyra, (Kara Schaaf) Benny, (Edwin Villa) and Dawn, (Heidi Marie Wanser) who are each criminals, try to navigate the island to receive a pardon for their crimes. Venturing off in teams of two, their exploits are captured for a reality TV show. As they make their way across, each team stumbles upon a special group there on the island that they can't explain. The days go on, and the number of the group members increase, they find that they're members of an old military unit that have now become zombies that are now intent on feasting on them. Worrying about twisted alliances as well as the bloodthirsty zombies, they all struggle to make it to the end of the show.The Good News: This here wasn't all that terrible. The biggest factor here is that it manages to stay interesting all the way through. There's enough zombie action in this one that keeps it going, since it's not that long and the action really starts in pretty early in the film. There's several attacks in here that occur before the film is even a half-hour in the film, and that gives it a really frenetic pace to everything. This gets going and really gets a lot of great scenes going when it does that. The film does have a few surprisingly graphic scenes in here, getting in some nice gory goods. There's numerous body wounds inflicted, normally by slicing them open any number of weapons including knives, blades, tree branches and much more. There's more blood coming from gunshots and other wounds inflicted, as well as the violence that comes from the zombies against the victims. Though most of that revolves around taking one to the ground, there's enough bloody fun to be had from them that it makes it good enough to be enjoyed for those who go for that. It's also got a really cheesy charm to it when it plays up the reality TV show aspect, which is a nice first for some. The on-screen text, which normally doesn't work at all, does get some getting used to here and it does win over eventually. That is a nice feature that this one uses to remind that it is a reality TV show rather than just the camera men occasionally showing up. These here help up the film's enjoyment level.The Bad News: This here does have a few really noticeable problems. One of the main ones is that there's a really terrible trend of using a shaking camera during many of the attack scenes. These are utilized quite often and have the impact of running along with the characters during the scene, and it's incredibly jarring and disorienting. They show up during the part of the film that the viewers want to see, yet it's made nearly impossible due to the irritating nature of it, as it makes trying to see what's going on nearly impossible. That is one of the more irritating things about it, as it really devalues what it's there to do. The running zombies are another problem to overcome, as they aren't very fearsome and don't add anything to the movie. The last big flaw is that there's a tendency of the film to feel too cheap. It's obviously not going to look spectacular, but there's still the feel of it that may throw some off. Otherwise, this one wasn't that bad.The Final Verdict: While featuring some really bad camera work and some really cheap looks, it's still a fun time for those who have a particular love of these films. Recommended to those who enjoy the low-budget features or hardcore zombie fans, while those with a strong aversion to cheap films won't be swayed by this one.Rated R: Graphic Language and Graphic Violence
