Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

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

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The writer Henry Jordan (Michael St. Michaels) receives a mysterious TV set and soon he learns that the apparatus is a gateway through which undead come to the world of the living. They kill Henry and the house is sold to another family. The teenager Zoe Blair (Roxanna Augesen) comes to house to clean it for her parents that are traveling abroad. Her brother Jeff Blair (Rocky Duvall) comes later to help Zoe and finds the TV set in the basement. He brings to his room and out of the blue, the stranger Joshua Daniels (Sam David McClelland) knocks on the door. Joshua explains that he sent a TV set mistakenly to that address, instead of to the Department of Occult Warfare. Jeff does not believe in Joshua, but soon he leans the truth about the TV of the undead. "The Video Dead" is a funny trash-movie about a television set that is a gateway to the world of the undead. The screenplay entwines horror with comedy with great scenes and laughable dialogues. There are many flaws (for example, nobody questions the fate of Jeff; his girlfriend and her family), but the film entertains and it is worthwhile watching if the viewer is fan of the genre. The conclusion is excellent. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "A TV dos Mortos Vivos" ("The TV of the Dead")

The Video Dead was a nice little idea and genuinely creepy and amusing for the first half hour or so. It pre-dates The Ring which it has a particular similarity to, and gives us a slightly different angle within the zombie genre. Unfortunately it wears thin fairly quick. Amateur camera-work can be forgiven but unfortunately not the terrible script and acting which let it down, along with the stories descent into a nonsensical plot. With a bit more care and imagination to make a coherent story and make the characters talk as real people, not the contrived dialogue it otherwise offers, it could have been a whole lot better. But still.....they went out and made it so fair play.

The acting is abysmal, to the point of unintentional hilarity. The way the male protagonist tried to run away from the female zombie near the end of the film is worthy of its own specialized drinking game. The film was clearly made on a micro-budget, although the settings and the zombie makeup were, for the most part, pretty solid. The rest of the special effects, especially ones involving death scenes, were pretty bad. I believe there were five major zombies depicted in the film, and one of the main male zombies was clearly depicted by a different actor in his first appearance than in the end.Still, if you're a zombie movie junkie, there are some redeeming qualities. While the first act and the denouement are both totally predictable, everything that happened in between was a total surprise to me. That's what happens when you make a movie where zombies kill people by choking them, and they die from taking arrows to the torso. There are even a couple of twists that will make you question your genre savvy. So, don't be afraid to give it a try.Overall rating: 6 out of 10.

First time watch.This had a little strange plot, well it new at the time, I liked the idea of Zombies come out of a TV set, The zombies did look a bit scary. (the make up effects were really good) at first but as the movie goes you will find more funny, as do some really funny killing.Were really funny death in scenes in this movie, This movie made me Jump in one scene lol, some so silly made me Jump. There were some bloody moments in this movie was nice, there were not many gory moment in this movie. The acting was really wooden for main lead boy, it felt like it was reading the link and not acting them out at all. I liked the ending of this movie, I thought that was really good way to end the movie. 5 out of 10
