Dead Zone

I watched my first (and last) Tubi Original with the zombie-action flick DEAD ZONE (2022) "starring" Michael Jai White. I say "starring" because White is in the entire film but probably only shown on screen for 13 minutes. The rest of the time, he is suited up in a Halo cosplay outfit with a fogged out visor, no doubt to cover the fact it is a double and he probably worked a day or two on this in Colorado. They also do some Iron Man Jarvis-like inserts of his face. I understand that White has a family and they have to eat, but this is really rough stuff. Director Hank Braxtan (Snake Outta Compton...yes, a real movie title) stages things so poorly with the entire commando unit decked out in identical outfits (except for leader White having a red stripe down his helmet), so you can't even tell who is who. Probably on purpose. Replete with bad action scenes, shoddy CGI and a haggard looking Jeff Fahey cameo, it feels like it was a SyFy movie lost in the editing bay in 2005 and recently recovered.

First, the High reviews for this are BS, it's a decent B zombie flick, but that's it. Watch if bored, has a few different approaches to the zombie world. Was about to stop watching 5 minutes in but did the whole movie. It's a watch for bored , die hard zombie fans, easy to rip apart but most are.last, the review board states I need 600 characters for this review what is absolutely bs , watch if bored and nothing else going on worth remembering.done''....".................."."..........This 600 character is b u l l $ h I t., this is why so many don't post this about any movie, they want a god damn novel for a review on a half ass b movie.

It is somewhat watchable, but, if you can avoid. Elements from 28 days later, resident evil.. poorly made. They kept those silent helmets on most of the time. Didn't make that much sense either. Poor quality shoddy cgi and overall quality.

Oddly, for a zombie movie, the city seemed pretty lit up, for everything to have collapsed.

Sat though it as I had nothing best to watch and hoped it was nice, but i was mistaken.

Low budget I would not recommend.................................................................................................................................................

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.

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.
