Wonderful character development!

Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

A Brilliant Conflict

This movie is absolutely awful. No other way to say it. It looks like it was directed by a 10 year old and no one should fall for it or even rent it. Its not even funny bad it is just asbsolutly awful. Me and my friends rented it as a joke and boy was it. The joke was on us. No one should watch this movie. It shouldn't even be a movie. I am young and am in a media class and I can make a better movie like this. STAY AWAY. Im not going to go into details about this movie because its to hard to follow. I don't even know if their is a story to be told but I didn't find one. I would rather have my toe nails pulled off then watch this movie again. I wouldn't watch this movie if it was free. Please from one person to another do not watch this thing. I wouldn't watch it for anything shy of 1 million dollars.

"Dorm of the Dead" is a perfectly decent if flawed zombie effort.**SPOILERS**At Arkham Hall College, students Sarah Hannigan, (Ciara Richards) and Allison, (Adrianna Eder) run into trouble with finances for the college, forcing her into a special dorm on school grounds for financially-challenged students. Immediately getting under the skin of Clare, (Jackey Hall) and her friend Julie, (Andrea Ownbey) they conspire to get even against the two. When they learn that a professor on campus has gotten a hold of a special formula that creates zombies, they see it as the perfect way to get back at them and decide to steal it for themselves. Getting the formula, they use it to get back at them but it eventually gets out-of-hand, creating a horde of zombies across the campus and forcing them to fend off their advances and craving for human flesh before they succumb to the virus as well.The Good News: This one wasn't that bad when it tried. The fact that it's so short is one of the better reasons for this one being so good. The fact that this one barely tops an hour manages to make it fly by without too much difficulty, making it not too taxing at all, and while not everything makes sense, the fact that there's always something going on is a good move, keeping it from being boring. There's plenty of attacks in here, and some of them aren't that bad. The confrontation in the parking garage is nice, with the human squabbles taking center-place, then the zombies arrive in the distance and take over, leading to some pretty entertaining scenes. The opening is also rather enjoyable, with the supposed antics coming to a halt when its revealed too late that it's not the scenario hoped for and becoming instead a rather bloody zombie attack. There's more good stuff to come from a later scene of the zombies attacking in a basement complex as well as the individual attacks spread throughout it which are rather fun. It even manages to have some really decent amount of nudity on display, which come from a couple of really interesting scenes. The opening lesbian sequence is quite erotic and really enjoyable, as it's a little bit longer than expected. The flashback sex scene is even better, and it's a rather lengthy scene as well which makes it even more packed with nudity. The last good plus is the rather cheap-looking gore, even though there's a lot of it. There's tons of bites, including stuff to the arms, shoulders, face and neck, a head ripped off, some limbs removed and even an eye eaten out and various scenes of flesh-consumption included amongst it all. These here are what make the film enjoyable.The Bad News: There was a couple flaws to this one. One of the biggest is that the zombies here are very problematic. The main thing is that these look nothing like zombies, rather people with make-up on their face to make them look decomposed, but it looks rather cheap and not all that realistic, which takes a lot of out of their scariness. This one also manages to really rewrite a couple rules about the zombie behavior as well that might irk some, namely the scenes of the zombies interacting with the humans. By first showing signs of understanding English, including following directions given to them, as well as halting their advances enough for a flashback, as well as being able to engage in conversation as well are quite hard to get a hold on for the more hardcore zombie fanatics. Also quite hard to believe are a couple of other scenes where the creatures are seen moving kills somewhere else, despite their still being ample amounts of flesh still there. Usually they're taken down and devoured, but this one has them move the kill around without finishing their work, which is a compete change-of-pace from what's to be expected from these creatures. Combined with the weak look and these behavior issues, they come off as really weak overall, and then because there's so little screen-time devoted to them that they become even less threatening. That's another rather big problem, this has so little time to devote to the zombies, due to the overall length of the film and since it has to flesh out it's back-stories that it leaves very little actual time with the creatures. A lot of the scenes last way too long for what they should've been, including the flashback to the infidelity, the opening fight amongst the characters not even in the rest of the movie and the zombie's quest around town. These should've been trimmed or removed and left more time for the zombie action. The last flaw is the low-budget that's expressed through the zombie make-up and gore, which is quite obvious. These here are the film's problems.The Final Verdict: With about an even mix of flaws and good points, this one pretty much evens out and really doesn't do much either way. Give this one a shot if you're into the cheap, low-budget zombie films or need a quick, harmless nudity-fix, otherwise more discerning zombie-fans should look elsewhere.Rated R: Graphic Language, Graphic Violence, Nudity and several sex scenes

This is one of the worst low budget movies I have ever seen. The acting is terrible and some of the effects are even worse. Also where is the story line????? The soundtrack however is quite good as the opening song was amazing. However some songs didn't fit the scene very well. Most of the sound effects were repeated.If you like nude college girls this is definitely the movie for you.There is a classroom scene which looks like it has been shot in three different locations that have all been thrown into one. Overall i rate this move very very poor. It comes no where near other zombie films like "Dawn Of The Dead" or "Land Of The Dead".

All right first I'll vent my beefs' with the film. Number one the makeup and gore effects were pretty bad, even for a no budget film. Plus there was no suspense, or zombie money shots. Second the soundtrack, which had a couple decent rock tunes, but also featured some really weird out of place techno music during a love scene, that was quite laughable. Number three and maybe this isn't so bad, the film only went barely an hour. Really a three rating is generous, the only good thing I can say is the women looked good, and Tiffany Shepis is always a pleasure to watch. Speaking of Tiffany, she has a lesbian scene in this film, that ends way to soon and shows little. Other then that, this film really should have upped the sleaze factor, as the brief nudity in the film was all it had going for it. Sorry to say skip this one.
