A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

In a sort of 28 Days Later meets Rabid fashion, Rammbock is a film about a zombie outbreak that randomly occurs in Berlin. Just as a man named Michael has returned to give a set of keys back to his old girlfriend.Now, he is holed up in her apartment, with another young man named Harper.There are a few other people in the complex as well, and they can speak to one another from their balconies.Turns out, that if you are bitten, you can ward off the illness, if you can refrain from getting an adrenaline rush. Though, that might be easier said than done under the circumstances.Either way, the two men must hatch a plan to escape the room they are trapped in- because they have no food to eat.So they fashion together a makeshift battering ram, and go right through one of the walls.During this ordeal, they get separated- with one ending up on the roof, and the other stuck in the neighbour's kitchen.Though, this does allow Harper to discover that a flash of bright light (like from a camera flash) temporarily blinds the zombies.Thus, they hatch a plan to escape once and for all...but...will all of them be able to make it? The ending is clearly inspired by Cronenberg's Rabid- though, in a slightly different way. This isn't a bad little zombie flick. It's relatively short at approximately an hour. And it did, seemingly, go on to inspire a spin off television series. So, there's that. But it was still pretty simple overall...and left me a bit unfulfilled.Nice effort though. 4.5 out of 10.

part zombie movie and part love story, this tells the tale of Michael, who goes to Berlin to return his ex girlfriends keys, in the hope he can convince her to reconcile.unfortunately for Michael, his trip coincides with a virus outbreak that turns its victims into bloodthirsty homicidal maniacs. although the infected are of the fast moving 28 Days Later variety, there are a few interesting ideas here that set this apart from the usual zombie flick.the infected can be held at bay by the flash from a camera due to the fact they are photosensitive, plus, the virus itself can be held off by sedating yourself until the body's own immune system eliminates it altogether.admittedly the movie is rather short at 63 mins and some of the acting and dialogue is terrible, but these are minor quibbles, and i'm left to wonder what the makers could have done with more time and a better budget to play with.

This is another basic zombie movie that follows the usual pattern of a viral epidemic which breaks out in a major city. In this case, Berlin. It's rather short (approximately 59 minutes) which I think is a negative factor because, even though it was a low-budget film, it was pretty enjoyable and I would have liked to have seen a bit more of it. The acting was decent and the storyline was about as realistic as any movie of this type could be. I also liked the fact that it introduced two new ideas which I thought have merit and are worth mentioning. First, the use of bright flashes of light which cause the zombies to temporarily retreat was quite interesting. Likewise, the use of sedatives to slow down the virus in an infected person was also very original. In summation, for such a low-budget film this was surprisingly good. Again though, I believe it would have been better if it were 20 to 30 minutes longer. Hopefully a sequel is in the works.

If you want to add real drama, lives playing out much closer to what would actually happen should a zombie apocalypse occur, than this is your movie. Great plot, great movie, good drama for a change in a zombie flick. +caution spoiler+ This is a tale of several people, all living in an apartment building, and what would happen should the zombie apocalypse happen. Of course, nobody is armed to the teeth, how to incapacitate a zombie isn't known so it has to be trial and error (ending in someone's demise, of course). It's about desperation, trying to survive with what you may have in a strangers apartment, and what most movies leave out: food. There is the token heroic sacrifice scene, which in this movie made it a 10.
