Festival of the Living Dead

I absolutely hated this film, the premise and the setting was great and it could've been something amazing to kick off the resurgence of the night of the living dead universe but it fell short.

The characters are so unlikeable that it's hard to root for anyone in the film, they all seem to hate eachother too which kept me asking "why are they even together?" And whether or not the script was written by the AI prompt "stupid gen z kids try to survive a zombie attack and add fu**ing into every other sentence"

Honestly it was really bad and I'm kinda annoyed I wasted my time watching it when I should've known better.

Im twenty minutes in and I'm ready for all these characters to get eaten alive by zombies. I don't see a lick of talent between the lot of them.

I think this movie is going for a blood fest/hellfest vibe but failed miserably with the lack of campiness and likeable characters. There is an overarching lack of plot and the characters consistently make irrational decisions.

Somehow 10 seconds after a violent car accident the blood on the characters is already dry on their face, not sure they thought that one through.

To be honest the commercials on Tubi are a nice break from this movie. I can say with 100% certainty I will never watch this movie again, and I recommend you avoid it.

OMG... I really had the misfortune of watching "Festival of the Living Dead", a horror movie that fails on nearly every level. It's really a ridiculous nightmare.

The actings are atrocious, with wooden performances that feel forced and unconvincing, making it difficult to become invested in the characters' plight.

The production values are equally subpar, with cheap special effects, poor lighting, and a general air of amateurishness.

The story is a cliched, predictable mess, relying on hackneyed tropes and plot twists that are both far-fetched and implausible.

The script is clunky and poorly written, with cringe-worthy dialogue that sounds like it was penned by a high school student.

To top it all off, the directing is uninspired and lacking in vision, failing to bring even a hint of tension or suspense to the proceedings.

Overall, this "Festival of the Living Dead" is really a festival of 'dead' ideas and innovation, a trainwreck of a movie that is best avoided, unless you're a fan of unintentional comedy or enjoy mocking poorly made films.

Pointless. Stupid. A disaster. The list is endless in describing this dumpster fire of a film. The sad part is the lame attempt to connect it to Night of the Living Dead which left me in stitches, because overall, Festival of the Living Dead winds up as yet another lazy, inconsistent crappy "zombie" film, with horrible characters, horrible writing and cringe-worthy dialogue. It's an absolute MESS.

The film just speaks loudly to how the Soska sisters don't even try. How they continue directing is baffling. They've spoken so highly of George A. Romero (and of course Cronenberg, with their awful remake of Rabid), yet fail in making anything good or memorable. Every film they produce just shows us how they're pretty much a one-hit wonder with American Mary. Please stop.

A Jen & Sylvia Soska directed film which suffers from the fact Jen & Sylvia Soska are not the writers.

After Rabid, the Iconic American Mary and Dead Hooker in the Trunk my hope are always high when Soska Sisters release a new film. I love the Living Dead films so when this was announced almost a year ago I thought we were in for a treat.

There is some good casting in places, some decent practical effects but it's all let down by the script.

This doesn't feel like a modern horror where the protagonists make smart choices. This Jars especially as some are supposed to be the descendants of Ben from Night Of The Living Dead.

This feels more like a Tubi Original rather than a Soska Sisters film.
