Outbreak

Saw the movie before reading the 1st spoiler riddled review from another viewer. Would have ruined the plot if I'd read it. Now that I've seen the movie & read it I completely disagree. Other reviewer hated it. I have seen a heap of horror over the years and this movie held me on the edge of my seat & made me nervous for the next scare the whole way through. That's hard to do with a very jaded horror buff like me. See for your self and you decide. I thought that it was scary and clever.

I like any horror filmed outdoors and this is certainly that. I experienced an ever increasing ominous sense of dread. It's low budget BUT it delivers. Main actor carried it so well, good supporting cast. I think they all did a fine job.

This horror mystery thriller is more of a drama the first 20 minutes. So you can already imagine that it's gonna be boring and slow paced at first. And then after the first attack, you thought that it's gonna start picking up the slack. But then it kinda sputters, making you lose your temper. And then at the end of the movie, the plot twist came and sorta flipped the table on the audience. You're gonna scream, "WHAT THE ACTUAL #@$%????!!!!". So bottom line, don't watch this hot mess.

I love zombie/apocalypse type of movies! Not sure why, but find them entertaining. I could not stop laughing during this one, not because it was intentionally funny, but because it was one of the worst ones I've ever watched! Just when you think it can't get any more stupid, it does! Yes, I watched the entire thing, I just couldn't look away. Nothing makes sense! The writing is ridiculous and riddled with inconsistencies!

In this case, these zombies are infected with rabies. And of course, the two sheriffs radios won't work. Why would people infected with rabies interfere with radio signals? That's just one of the utterly comical and ridiculous things that takes place. Watch it if you want a good laugh.

My expectations were very limited with this generic title, bad poster, and seemingly clichéd plot of a zombie apocalypse outbreak. We follow a state park ranger who is grappling with the disappearance of his teenage son until one day he has to face a mysterious zombie outbreak. As soon as he realizes what is going on, he grabs his wife, who acts like a numb sack of potatoes the entire time, and drives off.

Even after all these countless zombie movies, I still really enjoy the subgenre. And even though my expectations were low, I was excited to see this. It doesn't take long for the first zombie to show up, and the makeup effects looked decent, which was a pleasant surprise given the 4.4-star rating the movie currently has. There are a few tense scenes, and the zombies seem to get more physically athletic throughout the film. It's the fast-zombie version with twisting limbs and unnatural body movements, similar to what some Asian entries in the genre (for example, Train to Busan) often do. Many of the interactions with zombies felt unnatural and awkward at first, which was a little distracting, but later on these moments integrated more naturally into the film.

Billy Burke as the lead was good, and there were even a few humorous lines that worked rather well. The movie was actually quite diverting, even though it felt cheap, and some of the dialogue between the lead and his wife or other characters felt unnatural and out of place. Overall, I had a decent time, which could be because of my low expectations going in, but I have certainly seen worse in the genre. The movie also introduces one element that makes it stand out a bit, even though it has been done before. Still, it gave this movie a little more character. For genre lovers, this could be a decent watch, but if you are tired of seeing zombie movies, then this one definitely won't change that. [5.9/10]

Somebody didn't do their job here. Somebody didn't have a friend to help them fill in the holes and fix it so that this could've been a really good movie. Instead, we got this crap. I was so excited to watch this because of a clip i saw on on facebook. I read up on the storyline and it was exactly the type of movie i like. Well the first half hour was a complete write off. It was slow and boring and just a waste of time to watch. Then we finally started seeing some action... and then it made no sense and just ended. The zombies were fantastic in their roles and makeup was done well. The actress who played the wife is pretty and i love her haircut. Other than that this movie is a big thumbs down. I'm off to read the spoilers now to see if anyone made sense of the ending.
