The Clearing

A good looking cover to a long, very boring movie with a lot of stupid plots.

Lacks originality, logic, it's repetitive, and the acting is absolutely terrible all around.

If you've ever seen 10 minute of a zombie movie, imagine playing that in a loop, and you get this movie.

Without giving anything away (there's nothing to give away!), here are a few inane points: zombies appear out of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, where a father is camping with his daughter for a couple of days only. What are the odds?!

Also, the zombies scream in pain when hit; aren't zombies supposed to be dead, and unfeeling?

Year 2020 saw cheap, silly movies like this one popping up like mushrooms after the rain. I don't know if it's the fault of COVID-19, or the free streaming lowered the entertanment standards, but movies like this are worthless, and a total waste of time, and other resources such as bandwidth.

I'm not a massive fan of zombie films. But this movie wasn't too bad. I've seen alot worse.

Full of cliches and massive plot holes. Why did the little girl leave the camper in the first place? For a person who rather play on her phone, why did she leave it? Zombies now can climb ladders and like to fist fight.

Using the backdrop of a Zombie apocalypse, this movie is focusing on the redemption of father/daughter relationship and tries hard to show the differences in our generation gap. The potential for a great film is there, but if by a great film you want one about zombies, maybe this is not for you. The characters are believable, the script is ok, the scenerio questionable but the backdrop is dodgy. If you want to see a movie about a dysfunctional Dad doing his best in an apocalyptic setting, look elsewhere.
