Highly Overrated But Still Good

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

A deranged war veteran detonates a biological weapon inside a Federal building. Now quarantined and overflowing with ferocious rage-driven zombies, it's up to a small group of uninfected survivors on the top floor to figure a way out of the premises before it's too late.While director George Mendeluk maintains a brisk pace throughout and stages the action set pieces with a reasonable amount of flair and skill, he crucially fails to generate any much-needed tension and only delivers a slight smidgen of gore. D. Todd Deeken's generic script staunchly adheres to a by-the-numbers hackneyed and predictable plot without adding anything fresh or surprising into the standard mix. Moreover, the acting is decidedly hit or miss: Jason London as the stalwart Cale, Alicia Leigh Willis as the tough Mandy, and Lochlyn Munro as noble firefighter Lohan all do their best with the trite material while C. Thomas Howell as the no-nonsense Chief Grosso, Robert Carradine as the sinister Dr. Wexler, and especially Judd Nelson as ruthless fed Agent Wilson all simply phone it in. Brad Reeb's sharp cinematography and the rattling score by Chris Thomas are both up to par. Passable, but overall pretty blah and unremarkable.

I knew going in this movie would not be high budget and I like watching b type movies. This was not even worthy of a b rating. I could tell right away this was going to be real bad when the camera man has to use the camera to pull off effects by shaking it and using extreme blurry close ups that are way too fast. This piece of crap should have never even made it to DVD. I agree with what other said about the actors. There were a couple that I thought since they were in the movie. It couldn't be too bad. I was WRONG!............. Shame on anyone who is currently renting or selling this movie. I am a sucker for a good or half way good Zombie or Vampire movie. This movie was neither, even though they lead you to believe it was. They were like an infected rabid animal or something and not even a good one. The plot was bad the make up was bad and even the acting from a couple of seasoned actors. I hope they were roped into this movie and did not do it by choice. I think the budget on this film was a little over a million dollars. I know that's not a lot of money for a movie these days but I have seen decent horror movies made with a lot less and it turned out better than this. I suggest finding another movie and let this one die!

This movie was awful, they discredited awesome actors with a Movie that in all reality was just a rip off of Resident Evil. Honestly when these actors read this script they must of been drugged to not see it. i hope they all got paid a lot of money to make such a B rated film like this one. I honestly do not see why the director even thought this was a good film. I swear is everyone in Hollywood getting Dumber every year? Please Hollywood stop trying to make Zombie movies, Resident Evil is good without all these cheap knockoff attempts. Good lord. if i see another Zombie movie i hope it is called Resident Evil, otherwise it'll get just as bad a Review as this one did for sure, Resident Evil is enough for zombies. make a new Vampire movie... and god not Twilight.

"They'll label me a terrorist but I'm a patriot." After a disgruntled veteran unleashes a virus in an office building in order to expose a government secret things don't go as planned. A group of uninfected survivors try to escape the quarantined building and get to safety before it's too late. I had no idea what to expect from this movie at all. I have been watching almost everything before watching the preview to help me have a clean slate when I start. I saw the cast and thought this may be OK. I wish I would have seen the preview first. I am not sure if they were going for a serious movie or a over-the-top cheesy comedy movie. I hope to God it was the latter because if they tried to make this a serious movie they failed. If they went for a comedy type movie they did a little better but this is a few steps above the Sci-Fy channel movies (because of the cast). I really thought this was going to be a zombie movie but it turned out to be a comedy (?) version of "Quarantine". Overall, not my kind of movie but some people will like it. I give it a C-.
