Dead Zone

It's clearly a low budget B film, and considering it's a Tubi original "free" production, it wasn't too shabby. The camera-work was a little too shaky and the editing could've been better, but the pacing was decent for the comfortable 83 min runtime. Even the cinematography, score and directing were decent. Sure the writing had some issues, but with the adequate S/VFX, gore and MJW's awesome action scenes, as well as all cast performances being spot-on, it was still an enjoyable one-time watch. Anyone giving this film one's and two's needs to learn how to count higher. I've paid to see much worse, so I'm not complaining to watch something for free produced by Tubi's shoestring budget with a watchable and suspenseful story and decent actors. It's a well deserved 6/10 from me. Thanks Tubi, please keep them coming.

This is gred B zombie flick movie.

Storyline quite straight. Acting just ok for me.

But it's still entertaining to watch this movie until the end.

Dead Zone is a 2022 American sci-fi action horror film about elite soldiers who must fight off radiation mutated hordes.

Directed by Hank Braxtan (Snake Outta Compton; Unnatural; Chemical Peel; Blood Effects) from a screenplay written by Michael Klug and Tim Ogletree and a story by co-producers Jeffrey Giles and Michael Lurie.

An elite team of soldiers who, to stop the collapse of humanity, descend on a radiation-poisoned town and perform the ultimate stealth mission using high-tech armor and weapons.

Just watch it guys.

Even fans of Michael Jai White must admit that this is a real stinker, as nothing works in this movie. Jai White is cool of course, and riffs off some cool military lingo like "ceilings & sixes", while making all the cool military hand signs (backwards fist for "hold up" ; two fingers pointed at the eyes for "look this way" etc but their equipment doesn't work and the dialog is presented from inside their helmets. The shot/counter-shot is quite tedious especially with the audio and the breathing apparatus malfunctioning. The special effects are lousy with the enemy creature being a really bad knock-off combination of Alien/Predator obviously portrayed by a man in a monster mask. Most of the footage is so dark that it is a strain to watch. 2 stars for Jai White who always wins.

Greetings from the other side. Firstly, I think they should have picked a better name for this movie. Dead Zone is a Stephen King movie, and TV series, so not the best choice in my opinion.

Regardless of the name, this movie is terrible and boring as hell. I'm not a fan of Michael J White, but we hardly see him anyways, because of the Halo-type suits they wear. We hear him talking, and see a close-up of his face in the fancy Heads-up-display helmet, just like Iron Man, which is cheating. Anything to save a buck I guess.

I'm at the 40 minute mark and hardly anything has happened. It's dark all the time, and we don't get a good look at the zombies. We see them running around at a distance, I read another review that said there's some action at the 47 minute mark, which would be a treat.

Anyways, I can't recommend this movie, especially since I might not be able to watch the Entire thing. It's now at the 52 minute mark and still no action, so the other reviewer was wrong with his time. It doesn't matter since I'm done with it.

This is an odd one. It's by far not the worst movie I've ever seen.

In fact it had all the right things going for it. Everything you'd expect in a movie: good premise, good sets, decent actors, decent script, music that actually fits, zombies, gunplay, explosions, intelligent characters, cool costumes, future tech, the list goes on. But somehow it missed the mark.

I can't quite put my finger on what was missing. Like soup without the salt. Or a pencil turned the wrong way on the desk. It affects everything else, but you can't quite see it by itself. It left me with a feeling that I had watched the reflection of a great movie. It looked like the movie it was reflecting, but it wasn't the real movie.

Like running a movie from memory: you get all the main points and it's all there, but it doesn't feel like you're watching a movie. That's the feeling I got from this one. It would've only needed just a little oomph to hit that mark, but it didn't. So it ended up being an okay zombie movie. Not the worst, but nowhere near the gold standard of Resident Evil.
