Daniel Baldwin excelled himself in one of the worst movies , he's ever starred in ! And the lead actress Tuckie White (aka 'Lacie ) has hopefully given up acting as she has Zero talent . Further , The script was appalling with Lacie just saying the same thing!.
One of the characters said she felt like she hadn't eaten for days and was hungry. There was a vending machine in the room that she could have broken to grab a couple of chocolate bars , which of course she didn't do ( It would have been the highlight of the movie if she had ! )
There have been low budget movies made , which have been really good because the acting , directing and script have been excellent . However , none of those qualities existed in this movie . Also one of characters lost all her hair whilst turning into a Zombie but in the next scene she had a full head of hair! ( She needs to market that Zombie shampoo cos she'd make a fortune!)

The US army wants a new biological weapon and they are testing it on volunteer students who want to make a quick thousand dollars. Once a group is selected they are put into the facility equipped with cameras, then gassed which is how the drug is administered. They sit back and watch the results.
The drug makes them bleed from all orifices, then gives them a surge of energy making them incredibly strong wanting just to kill. They look like demon zombies. The difference in this film is that the infected people can be killed like how anybody could be. They don't take 50 bullets and keep going.
My only complaint is the overplayed premise and Daniel Baldwin's presence.

No spoilers: Three of these turd movies about the same crap came out the same year. The Facility, Blood Work and this. This was the worst of the three. I couldn't rate any of them over a 3. This one is the worst. If you make it pass the classroom scene you might make it to the end.
So, this was hilariously bad. Like, MST3000 bad. D'list bad. The only actor I recognized was Daniel Baldwin and that should give you a clue. 😆 However, I managed to watch it anyway just to giggle at the horrible quality of the direction and terrible performances. It just might be the worst movie I have ever seen. 😂🤣
I was lured in by the promise stating "The Walking Dead meets 28 Days Later" on the cover of this movie. So yeah, I must admit that I had some expectations for this 2012 movie. Which, I oddly enough, hadn't heard of before stumbling upon it in 2019, and I am a huge zombie fan.
Nevertheless, I sat down to watch "After Effect", and when I saw that Daniel Baldwin was in it, I knew that the movie was not likely to live up to what was promised on the front cover. And right I was, because this was quite far from both "The Walking Dead" and "28 Days Later". This was something else alright.
The movie definitely had potential, I mean a group of people locked inside a testing facility to undergo some military experiment. But that is where it stopped, because the movie settled into stupidity and sluggish mediocrity pretty quickly. Director David McElroy didn't really come up with anything particularly great here.
For a zombie movie, "After Effect" was not delivering anything worthwhile, and it was hard to take most of the characters seriously. I mean, some of the things they did and said was just downright stupid. If you sign up for testing and getting paid, why would you turn all scared and start yelling and screaming when you are lead to a room and they close the door behind you.
"After Effect" was not a memorable movie, yet I managed to sit through the entirety of it, hoping that it would improve and turn out just semi-adequate. That just never happened.
My rating of "After Effect" is a mere three out of ten stars. The movie was sluggish, boring and just downright uneventful. It was crammed with pointless characters that you don't really care about, and writers David McElroy and Marc Menet just didn't make much of anything noteworthy here with this 2012 movie.
