Rammbock: Berlin Undead

This is so know as Siege Of The Dead (2010) is a low budget infected movie from Germany.

I did not expect much from this at all but turn out to be surprising good.

Michael as come to see his girlfriend in Berlin but then he finds out that people have been infected by this unknown virus.

This is only 59 minutes long, just under an hour, this movie was really fast paced and some really good decent tense moment as well.

The infected were really welled acted and liked the whole foaming thing from there mouth.

This movie wasn't really thag gory at all, the bite moment that looked nasty but nothing other zombies/infected movies.

I really liked the idea of flashes from the camera, that was nice turn for the infected, Which had fresh feel to these kinda of movies.

There was a few surprising moments, that I didn't see coming at all,

I really liked that scene. Great acting from the whole but I not sure what to make of the infected hugging Scenes,

I am giving this movie 8 out of 10

I actually do zombie extra in movies with no credit (I'm formerly from Pittsburgh, and represent the George Romero team as a full-on fan of the genre), and these people are having way too much fun.

Way, way too much fun! Though as a... um... "professional zombie", no rule is broken, (a joke from one of my directors: "zombies do not RUN!!!" They don't) and if a zombie-fan, a total thrill-ride.

GREAT STORY!!! GREAT ENDING!!! Who cares the budget: no one can tell, cuz it's good. As philosophical as I expect from Germany, but without the total angst. Together, yet apart. Hopeful, and hopeless. God, it's just GOOD!!! I really wish I was an extra on this one. I'd die for it.

For a rather short film (just over an hour) with a rather low budget it's not too shabby. The "dead" act like the infected from 28 days later, rather than zombies and are repelled with bright light but do love the taste of flesh! The action takes place in and around an apartment block and a courtyard so don't be mislead by the cover. I liked the film but found the main character to be a complete pain. The guy is a complete plank and its hard to sympathise with him though the other main characters (or should I say, character) were fine. In the middle of the apocalypse, he is completely smitten with his girlfriend and worries about her whereabouts which is plausible but he still comes across as rather stupid and pathetic. However this is a nice change from the hard as nails lead you expect in this type of film. Some people should be warned that the film is in German which posed no problems for me as I don't mind subtitles but folk do seem to moan a lot about having to read subtitles these days...

This is one of those flicks I was trying to get in my hands. It is officially out and should be easy to find but when I ordered it it was always delayed but finally I was able to get it from the UK. It's an independent and it shows but not on the effects. It only shows on the amount of actors and on the way the script was written. There are a few CGI shots but it's only the apocalypse of Berlin and it worked out fine. The zombies itself are okay in the way they act and are created. But overall it's more a love story than a real zombie flick. Nevertheless, the zombies do appear at regular base just when you think that it's going to be boring. There is a bit of red stuff and only in the beginning there is a bite in the neck where it's a little bit gory. Further on the gore is left out. Still by clocking in at 61 minutes it's surely on to have in your zombie collection. A really nice effort by the director and his crew.

A man (Michael) goes to Berlin to try and reconcile with his girlfriend (Gabi) under the guise of "returning her keys". When he gets to her house he finds that she's not there and that zombies are ruling the neighborhood. In other words, they're all over the f!!cking place. With the help of a young man (Harper) he is forced to barricade himself in her apartment. In fact everyone in the apartment complex that overlooks a courtyard is trapped; they're only able to communicate with each other by shouting across the courtyard. How the outbreak of zombification started is not known. A special report that conveniently begins as soon as Harper turns on a TV set, highlights terrorism as one of the public and news media speculations (a "German September 11th"). To this, the authorities respond with "ridiculous". So the people in the movie don't really know and neither do we the viewer. But who cares? This is typical of many zombie movies. The important thing is that this is one of the better made ones.

The zombies in this movie are aggressive, ravenous, and know how to hustle for a bite and taste of human flesh. I think it's beginning to dawn on horror movie producers that one could still have some kind of life with the slow zombies since the only way they could catch a healthy man, woman, or child is by surprise. With these new strain of zombies you're pretty much shut down in your house and really horrified. I mean, no work, no school, no social life. Anyway, some of the challenges these trapped people face is to find a way to close the gate to the courtyard below and to navigate the apartment complex to get away from zombies and bring assistance to each other. We all love situations in movies where people are trapped or confined in some place and have to use their courage and ingenuity to survive ---if they're done well. And it's done well here; very entertaining. Don't miss! Love, Boloxxxi.
