This isn't a world encompassing zombie movie like world war z or dawn of the dead. It's a backwoods cabin kind of film.
I can confirm virtually every other review on here that it is generic in its plot. But, it's not all bad, especially if you like those kinds of movies for what they are.
There were a couple scenes that I liked and it gets to the zombie attacks fairly quickly.
Honestly, you could certainly do worse for a free movie on Hulu.
My main criticism is that the writing (dialogue wise) is pretty bad and it made me laugh a couple of times. There were also a few aerial shots that made no sense in terms of camerawork.
The acting is also hit and miss. I really like Scout Taylor Compton as an actress, so I'm slightly biased and I gave it an extra star just because of her. Other than her and the old guy, the rest of the cast leaves a lot to be desired.
I watch a lot of these types of films and I'd say it's a typical 4/10 zombie film. In that sense, its overall rating is a fairly accurate portrayal. I definitely disagree with anyone who says it's 1/10 bad. It's not like House of Dead (uwe boll).
If you're reading these reviews to determine whether it's worth 1.5 hours of your life, I'll sum it up:
If you like zombie films where you're waiting for people to turn, you may find some enjoyment for what it is. If you don't usually like zombie films, probably a skip.
