Truly Dreadful Film

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

To all you would-be obscure movie watchers out there, look out for the multi-DVD pack called Urban Chills. Though it has one or two decent films, the rest are pretty lousy. Trust me, it's got ZOMBIE NIGHT! *SIGH!* Zombies have become the latest "In" things. And while I'm ecstatic to see what will be coming down the pipeline (hm, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES, anyone?) I'm starting to grow weary that zombies will go the way of vampires after TWILIGHT. In other words, they'll start losing their scariness. Anyway, now done with my rant, let's continue.ZOMBIE NIGHT is one of those standard-issue people stranded in a vacant building, desperately trying to survive, as zombies come out to torment them. In terms of story, that's really all this film has to offer. None of the characters is interesting or quirky enough. None of their dialogue is particularly fascinating. But what the film does have is low budget gore in droves! Limbs, heads, severed arteries... spurt and fly all over the place. Not much else, really, to recommend it. For unintentional laughs, however, there's plenty of stupid characters doing stupid things. It really is quite amazing they didn't all die within the first thirty minutes! By the end, it leaves you hanging. Now rumor had it that a sequel was in the works. But hopefully, that will never happen. My advice: Pass right over this one, and just wait for The Walking Dead to come back on AMC!

I cannot justify even giving this movie a single star.It is bad.No, even worse than bad. There is no adjective in the English language that appropriately describes how awful this movie is.I will admit that there are a couple of good zombie kills, but the acting, sound quality, video quality, plot, continuity, believibility, and setting are all really bad.Somehow, they even managed to do a bad job with the nudity scenes.If you want to get drunk and make fun of this movie with your buddies, then this movie will serve you a purpose, but if you want to enjoy watching a scary movie, look elsewhere.

As a big fan of zombie movies and B-horror, I have come to expect enormous plot holes, sub-par editing, hard-not-to-laugh-at acting, and poor dialog. With these in mind I purchased Zombie Night from my local DVD/CD shop for 4$, why not add to the collection? What I didn't expect was that the acting would be SO bad that I would feel almost embarrassed watching and listening to these characters interact in the film. The dialog and actors leave you to believe they were selected minutes before the shooting and given no script as they make quite a few mistakes. Shouldn't they edit those out? Additionally. the editing here was downright confusing. In one scene a couple is listening to the radio on their car stereo and when the girl reaches to turn it up... the scene cuts to live news broadcasts on a television highlighting the zombie uprising before cutting back to the pair in the car discussing the "magical" TV broadcasts? The cause of the outbreak is practically left to the imagination. Something about WW3 causing nuclear fallout which in turn is causing people to rise from death as flesh hungry zombies? A couple scenes of nice gore including an excellent shotgun blast to the leg and a decent bit of gut munching simply weren't enough save Zombie Night from the ABYSMAL dialog, editing, and acting. Overall, a good rental for the die-hard zombie fan or something to pop on if your looking for a laugh-at-with-your-friends style horror flick.

I just watched and reviewed this movie for a horror web site. I loved this movie!!Remember this is an Indie Horror, so have an open mind. Consider, locations, and budgeting etc. The makeup was excellent, storyline good, pace excellent, background noises/music good. Editing needed some work, but this is "A diamond in the rough". I want to own this movie, I want to discuss this movie with other Horror fans!! I will stick up for this movie (especially as a zombie genre fan) and I am not a Canadian or a part of the movie..darn!! Zombie survivor film, set in the aftermath of WWIII a lot of the story is inferred. Very post apocalyptic horror subject. Acting is slightly stiff, but on a scale with other Indie zombie horror this is at the top of the mountain. The survivors are trying to avoid the flesh hungry ghouls facing overwhelming odds.
