Good but...

First off, this is worth a watch, and it's far better than the 2-3 stars some reviewers are awarding.

Woman takes an unplanned "walking holiday" in the Nevada desert and picks up an unwanted follower in the form of a slow but relentless Zombie, is a great premise.

Brittany Allen as Molly does a perfectly acceptable job in the lead playing a character who has to deal with increasingly grim situations with nothing but steely determination 5 grams of cocaine to see her through.

In the last act the film lost it's clarity but still just about kept it together.

6 out of ten, could have been a 7 with a tighter ending.

Road Trip - Zombie Edition

I understand that some people will not like this at all. It is annoying, you have a main character who's morally bankrupt, annoying and does not really seem to have any redemption value. Add to that decision making of the questionable kind and you have a dangerous mix. Dangerous because the interest of the viewer may wane to put it mildly.

Having said that and in stark contrast to all that, there are quite a few funny and really good moments. They may feel like skits and sometimes out of touch with the rest of the movie. And still they are able to elevate it, be it because of the humor, the tension or some sort short violence outburst. Sometimes a combination, which makes you wonder if underneath it all there was a way better movie, with a bit more time spent on the script, the characters and just in general. The main actress does her best to carry the movie (no pun intended), don't confuse despicable behavior with bad acting ... I hope this helped you decide if it is worth giving this a chance or not ...

A Zombie Buddy Movie

I just stumbled across this on one of the premium networks, and frankly expected more of the same - just another zombie retelling, which is kind of old, at this point. Boy, was I wrong. This story is so clever, and at times hilarious. The two main actors - Brittany Allen, as a coke-addicted stripper stranded in the desert, and Juan Riedinger a zombie in not-so-hot pursuit - are absolutely dead on. So to speak. I could see where zombie purists might not like it, simply because it's so unconventional, but I think it's a hidden gem.

Cool buddy zombie film

The most epic thing about this is Molly (Brittany Allen) is the only woman in it and she can really hold her own in a zombie apocalypse scenario otherwise meh movie. Not much happens except great scenery and a few badass scenes!

Fix the niggles, and the rest flows

A stripper-mom fleeing a zombie apocalypse finds herself alone and stranded in the desert as one of the creatures stalks her ...

Good concept with an interesting twist and energetic climax. Plenty of style, with fine cinematography and a few big-bucks effects. This is from the writer/director/producer team behind Grave Encounters, so you might expect a bleak and harrowing story, but it's surprisingly big hearted if not quite optimistic.

But surprise surprise - this experienced team allow a lot of niggles to interrupt the story, with constant lapses in plausibility and logic. For example, in the opening scene the getaway car digs its rear wheel into the sand and won't budge - instantly I thought of a way to dislodge it, but the characters didn't even begin to think - even for the comedy effect. Later, there are plenty opportunities to exploit the creature's weakness, but the heroine doesn't have the wit to even try. A safe-haven house appears and disappears for no reason. The story is peppered with these problems, which kept dragging me out but are easily fixable. It undermined the humour and pathos the story was aiming for, so that's frustrating.

The final act has a serious change of tack, which kinda works. It does deliver on character and emotion, but its awkwardness might have been less if the earlier story had flowed more smoothly. So there's plenty to enjoy in this movie, but the script was just a bit off.

The landscapes are gorgeous, and there's a good car-shot with a face in the wing mirror, plus a fire-lit reveal of the monster creeping up from behind. Also plenty of gore and skin.

Lead actress does well, with a great squeal & scarper when trying to confront the zombie. And the zombie's movements are well done, and he even generated sympathy. Was the chemistry believable? Would have helped to have better dialogue.

Enjoyed the music. And the title comes from a gross-out snack.

Overall: Quality, but sloppy.

A "tastefully done" zombie movie, if that's possible

If you're looking for your standard mainstream blood and gore zombie feature, this will not be your cup of tea. It DEFINITELY is a different approach to the zombie genre. There's minimal gore, essentially no nudity and some sexual content. Compared to what's out there now, this film is tame.

It's basically a one and a half person show. She and the zombie. She's a party girl when the apocalypse happens and ends up with a "pet" zombie. Along her journey with the undead, she comes to terms with her past and herself and starts making changes. Having the zombie around was probably the best thing to happen to her.

Overall I found this to be a very good movie.

Tank Girl meets I Spit On Your Grave.

Brittany (Jigsaw, What keeps you alive) Allen, manages yet another, brutal performance here, as a coke-addled newly single hoe on the run, who decides to befriend a zombie, and, ultimately re-mother her child in the wake of a zombie-takeover invasion. This is equal parts 'Fido', meets 'Single White Female', lost in a haze of bright, contrasty colors of the desert that will have you wondering if this is more 'Tank Girl', or 'I Spit On Your Grave'. It has the momentum of a 90s movie, until the logic of the plot wears thin. Then out of nowhere there is the ending, which is kind of becoming a modern cliche. Just don't accidentally burn the popcorn.

You'll be rooting for the Zombie,....

Amazingly well shot, with a consistent vision and look through out, this is one of the few standout Zombie flicks of the last decade - maybe not as good as Zombieland, but at least the equal of 'The Girl with all the Gifts'. The characters are consistent where needed, and the evolution of Molly follows a realistic path of growth. The pacing from start to finish is just about perfect, it never drags and it never feels rushed You'll be rooting for the Zombies, especially 'Smalls', several times as events unfold. There's a couple of film makers goofs, but it'll take other film makers to spot them. A must-see for Zombie fans, and a good watch for everyone else.

the zombie Stockholm syndrome

A few times this title passed me on the net and now that it is available it was time to pick it up. It's not going to be a flick for everyone because it do contains zombies but it's not all about the zombie(s). In fact it's between the relationship between a human and a zombie following her closely. A bit of a zombie Stockholm syndrome.

The flick itself starts off rather in a gory way and I thought that it was going to be a gory flick. In some ways it is but on the other hand it only happens when a zombie do attack. That is of course normal but as stated, it's not all about the zombies attacking. Due the fact that there is some kind of friendship starting between the two (hulan and zombie) you will have some funny situations, maybe it wasn't intended but I did had a smile here and there.

Is it all that good, the effects are really well done and are above mediocre and the acting is also okay but the script do has it flows. There are a lot of situations that you think, hub, what do happens now or why do one react that way.

Still, if you are into zombies it's a must see, it'do has it gore but it's never scary. It fits perfectly in the horror genre but I can understand that some will turn it off due plot holes and the story itself.

dumb and dumber

Las Vegas is burning from the zombie apocalypse. Molly (Brittany Allen) and Nick are driving to an airfield to catch a plane out of Dodge. She's a druggie stripper and he's a muscle-bound meathead. He gets the car stuck in the sand. A zombie approaches.

Molly and Nick are basically dumb and dumber. In a zombie movie, they are the couple who gets ridiculously killed from stupidity. This somehow stretches it out. Early on, I thought that she should just keep chucking rocks at the zombie. I guess that the movie would end too quickly. Still, I have issues. I do like Molly's journey. Not all of it holds up.

No

I love horror movies but this is definitely not one of them.

It is painfully obvious that the other reviewer knows the people who made the movie personally so I felt compelled to leave an honest review.

Bad acting, bad script, stupid, dumb, horrible, blah blah blah... you get the idea, you can skip this one

Not sure what else to say but I have to have 10 lines for a review so this is the tenth line

Move on to the next zombie movie

Boring movie with very unlike-able main character. I can never get behind a movie where the main (and really only significant) alive character is a crappy person and makes stupid decisions. At first I wondered, is this meant to be a comedy? Certainly its no horror nor a thriller. Black 'comedy' maybe. Annoying cheap drunk stripper coke head uses guy, shows shes a crap person, boringly gets chased by a very poor make-up-ed smalls, lets her misandry fly and over all proves she really is an unlike-able 'dumb broad'- would be a much more accurate summary of this movie. Would definitely recommend re-watching TWD for the 100th time over this. But in the pros - good use of landscape, actors aren't terrible and zombie sound effects are good.

a different kind of zombie film

I enjoyed this it was something different from the usual zombie films and the main actress held it all together well....not much blood and gore so may not appeal to die hard zombie fans, some humour along the way definitely not as bad as some people have said. Not sure i would class it as a horror film but still entertaining and held my interest

The Best Independent Drama/Thriller/Zombie Film I've Seen

To try and quench my zombie appetite I have watched MANY MANY...and I mean MAAANY zombie movies, and many of them are pretty dang bad.

This is not one of them.

Although not academy award level in any aspect, I would consider this deserving of awards in the independent and lower budget arenas!

If reviewers and viewers pay attention you will notice that this movie is labeled a Drama, Horror, Thriller. I believe that's accurate. For hard core zombie fans who like strict zombie action, I can see why some would be disappointed. I was not. And in fact I was quite pleasantly captivated. This was a breath of fresh air for this tired, same ole same ole, genera. I finally found a zombie movie that had some MEANING to it. Where the main character was believable and multi dimensional. I loved the humor inter mixed thru out!

The camera work was EXCELLENT. The acting and direction was very very good. And the story was full and different with the pace set at a nice steady burn. After about 45 minutes the pace does pick up with some new characters introduced and some nice surprises!

After reading my review, you can tell whether or not this film may interest you. If you are on the fence...let me push you off. I thought it was an excellent film.

This is not a bad Movie.

It Stains the Sand Red is a surprisingly entertaining movie, low budget notwithstanding. I'm an undead movie fan, and acknowledge that most low budget zombie films are pure garbage. Thin plots, terrible writing, and even worse acting. This film is different, Brittany Allen showed some real acting chops. She was believable without being over the top. I found myself really liking her and her choices when the apocalypse struck. After all, who wouldn't like a Momma Bear who risks everything to get back with her child. Her anguish when she couldn't find her child is something every parent knows. The look on her face when she waded into the zombie herd at the very end is priceless.

Give it a chance

The only thing holding this film back is the overly slow beginning there's just way too much footage of the desert but if you keep with it it does improve.the idea was original and if it had only got the proportions right it could of been really good

Solid Zombie Drama

This is another one those flicks where some people are just going to be bored and there's nothing you can do or say to make them understand that they are not the target audience for this kind of horror. The story is well done and the main character holds the film up well. The only reason I gave it a seven instead of an eight or higher is that some of the other acting out side of the protagonist is pretty cheesy, borderline lazy. I think the director missed an opportunity to elevate the genre. If you can be ok with a quality zombie drama film overall with a bare number of hiccups this one is worth checking out.
