Yeah I get that it is supposed to be a zombie movie with a heart. And I'm not dissing Canadian productions, I actually do enjoy the niceness in a lot of Canadian shows and movies but in this film it just didn't seem to work and proved to keep this a bit dull, slow, and weird. When seeing what it was I did have high hopes, but a better Canadian zombie love story would be The Returned with Emily Hampshire.

I don't understand all the high reviews. They must have worked on the movie or friends of the producer. It's just another pandemic zombie movie. Very timely

I would have given this movie 0 stars if i could have. Finished the whole thing and it bums me out that i will never get that 85 mins of my life back. I would sooner slam my balls in a car door repeatedly then have to rewatch this movie. People rating this 9 and 10 must have watched a different movie.

This is, by far, the worst movie I have ever seen in my life! Being listed as an apocalyptic zombie movie is most laughable. The "zombies" are never shown to have aggression until closer to the end and even in that moment it is terribly done. The script itself is awful. It is meant to be some sort of a love story, however, there is no portrayal of real love whatsoever. The actors are terrible, the writing is terrible...the movie is terrible. I whole heartedly believe the only people rating this movie with high stars are those who are involved in the making of this film. Do not even waste your time watching this movie, as you will bitterly regret it as I did!

-1 Star for the horrible acting in the opening sequence
-2 Stars for the stupid stupid forest scene with the 'We're gonna take your bag' guys. Lets see how many irrational moments we can put into a scene shall we?
And in the end there were not any real positives I could see at all in this 'Love Story' I was surprised I made it through the whole thing without shutting it off.

I watch all kinds of horror movies and I don't have the highest standards. I do not find unlikable and selfish protagonists with zero personal growth to be watchable. Our protagonist seemingly makes the worst choices and gets himself in trouble time and time again. The love story also seems forced and one way. These other reviews must be fake reviews.

The "zombies" are not really zombies nor do they seem overly dangerous- the hero walks among them with no problems or even getting attacked. The dialogue is painful, although the actors are not terrible. There doesn't seem to be a point to this movie. It's too awful to be enjoyably bad.

This movies was a garbage. 84 min runtime but I finshed it within 25min, guess what I was unable to connect myself with the screen. I felt sleepy many time. 84 min film felt like 84 hours. Don't believe in the other users high rating. I warn you Don't watch it if you do you will regret.
This movie really hits home, given the state of the world right now as we face off against a pandemic. Right off the bat, you see some characters wearing face masks, which helps in setting it apart from many zombie films.
It's well shot and the love story is interesting. Some really nice thriller moments as well. It breezes by and there is never a dull moment.

Well, I sat down to watch the 2019 movie "Into the Void" from writer and director Jordan Cantello with the notion that it was a zombie movie. Little did I know that this was a 'zombie movie with a heart'. Well, watch the movie, and you'll get what I mean.
I didn't enjoy this movie. It was purely too mundane and unfathomably slow paced. So slow, in fact, that I gave up 45 minutes into the ordeal. Why? Well, absolutely nothing of any interest had happened in those prolonged 45 minutes and I didn't care one ounce about the characters in the movie. So continuing to watch it would just be considered self-torture.
Well, I will say that the movie was nicely filmed and had some good enough production value to it. However, I didn't enjoy the storyline, nor the fact that this wasn't really a zombie movie in the traditional sense. So I was rather disappointed with this pseudo-dramatic dribble that was "Into the Void".
Actually, the title of the movie, "Into the Void", is a clear indicator of what you will be in for when you sit down to watch this 2019 movie; a whole lot of nothing.
I am rating "Into the Void" a generous two out of ten stars, solely for its production value. There was absolutely nothing enjoyable or entertaining in this movie for my liking, and I have zero interest in returning to watch the rest of the movie, as I simply couldn't care less about the storyline of the characters in the movie.

This very watchable film does not depict the kind of post-apocalyptic world of The Walking Dead or Mad Max -- of which I'm glad. Yes, there is some zombie rampaging going on, but it's also the internal struggle of the characters. I love zombie films that aren't cliched, and this is one of them. The performances are solid; the cast is hot; the scenery is eerie, and the zombie kills are convincing. Very good indie film.
A unique take on the post-apocalyptic genre. Definitely more drama and love story, so not for those looking for zombie gore. Is more about the psychological struggles of the survivors and messy relationship of the main characters.

This movie should get an award for the worst acting ever. I couldn't get past the first five minutes, it's THAT bad.

Another director that doesn't know how to direct. Interesting concept, poor script and inexperienced actors without clear guidance from their director.

The script writer should be held just as accountable as the actors for how awful this movie is.
The acting is awful, the dialogue is clunky. You can't emote with any of the characters or their situations because the story is shoved down your throat rather than having the cast and crew use any talent or skill to let the story unwind.
If you value your own brain cells and don't want them dribbling out of your ears, give this movie a miss. You have been warned.

Producer should be sued for even alluding to apocalyptic or zombie-like content. This would have been an excellent 10-th grade movie project. Unfortunately, it was presented as an actual movie. AI "actors" will have a field day replacing fourth-rate performers such as those found in this non-movie. Can't wait.
Not even worth renting. Not worth watching even if someone is paying you in beer, chips, etc.

What an interesting take on a genre I love (zombies, post-apocalyptic society, etc) - and so relevant to everything we're going through right now.
Watched this on Amazon Prime and thought Director Jordan Cantello and the cast did a great job!

In the middle of a supposed breakup, Josh witnesses Maria's mental breakdown that signals the beginning of a kind of apocalypse.
I tire of zombie movies as they tend to be unoriginal. Luckily, Into the Void, at least for me, takes an original twist on this tired genre. Thank God the characters are imperfect from the beginning and we get to imagine another world at the end of days.

Who knew that a post apocalyptic movie would be so timely right now? Well Into the Void touches right on the nerves of all of us right now, and then some. While I thoroughly enjoyed this well made indie, I couldn't help but feel their pain. Of course its' fictional and slightly more dangerous-in its Zombie world theme-it still strikes a chord as it is grounded in a psychological tale that's relatable. Excellent performances by the two leads, Ioan Sebastian Tirlui and Molly Dyson and smart directing by Jordan Cantello make Into the Void a perfect diversion for these scary times!

I'm not a fan of relentless gore, just one of the reasons I liked this dystopian take on the end of the world. Great to see a director take a more intimate, humane approach and succeed with well cast newcomers holding their own amidst impressive cinematography. No surprise at the number of awards for this movie, all well-deserved!

This is a great love story between the main characters as they try to figure out the new normal after a pandemic. Sound current? All to real. It was good. We enjoyed it and found ourselves talking about it even after it was finished. The filming was top rate and helped keep the plot going. Solid acting from the leads. If you want a love story in the pandemic world of the future (or present!) you will enjoy this.

A unique zombie film that is oddly enough close to reality for us now with the covid pandemic. A certain horror element is added watching this now when we see masks and gloves to keep from getting sick. The film has an ever moving plot going towards one's redemption. I enjoyed the film throughout and would recommend anyone who enjoys a indie zombie flick!
