Die Nacht der Zombies

Kept losing track of who was dead or not. Big huge mess, that I really liked. It was hyper to say the least. Little girl killed by parents; all come back. Then the action started and became really intense. Like blood and gore? Check. Like heroic dumb hillbillies rocker types? Check. There are a few other things I really like, in horror movies, but I am sworn to secrecy when commenting here, including the ending.

I found this movie oddly charming. No, it's not the most original or the scariest/funniest or the best production, but I felt there was earnest effort put into making it, which is more than I can say about a lot of godawful horror movies I've seen. There was a sort of genuineness to it that I don't often see but do appreciate. It won't be to everyone's taste, as evidenced by the other reviews and ratings, but I was engaged enough to watch all the way through and honestly root for the protagonists.

This was 100% not serious, but it was so fun. The only thing that I was disappointed in was the fact that Debbie Rochon's character had no real lines- but she was amazing per usual. The guy who played Otto was hilarious, and sweet at the same time. I would definitely recommend watching it/ just know what your walking into.

I was lured by the movie's cover/poster and the fact that it was a horror movie. Admittably, I didn't know anything about the movie or who starred in it prior to finding it. But my love for the horror genre made me pick up "As Night Falls" and give it a chance...

...a chance that I should have skipped on.

"As Night Falls" turned out to be a rather boring and mundane horror movie at best. It failed to really entertain me, and it didn't bring anything new to the horror genre. It felt like it trotted through its storyline blindfolded.

And speaking of the storyline, then it was not really any type of interesting. And I often found my attention to the movie drifting away to my phone for example. I did, however, decide to stay with the movie right to the very end,

If there has just been something to justify this as being a horror movie, it would have been so much better, an improvement for sure. But there wasn't, and it made it feel prolonged to sit through an hour and twenty minutes waiting for something scary to happen.

The acting in "As Night Falls" was as to be expected from a movie such as this, for better or worse. I will say that I am sure that people actually were putting on their best performances.

If you enjoy a good comedy, then you should definitely find something with a lot more kick and bite to it than "As Night Falls". Providing that you actually make it through the first time you watch "As Night Falls", I doubt that you will be returning for a second viewing.

My rating of this movie is a mere 3 out of 10 stars.

I couldn't tell whether I was supposed to take this flick seriously. In the end, I've decided not to. Debbie Rochon barely has a line and that's for the best because the screenplay is ridiculous. There's no plot. People do ridiculous things with alarming regularity. The zombie monsters get in fist fights. People get stabbed and recover moments later. There's not much to recommend As Night Falls. Your life is better without it.
