Infected

I can't believe all these actors agreed to make this movie. Everything is awful: acting, story, effects. Jokes are bad too. Story goes to nowhere. From the first ten minutes you can say how it will end. Director tried to attract our attention with the help of Michael Madsen(and it kinda worked).

Oh, and one more thing: zombies look very sick, even for them. I hope people won't be able to watch this movie and damage their brains.

P.S

Comparing this movie with other recent low-budget movies, I can say that it's one of the worst horror film in years.

Being a huge zombie aficionado, I basically devour - no put intended - just everything that includes zombies. Unfortunately the zombie market is swamped with releases that are questionable and probably shouldn't have had seen the light of day.

As was the case with "Infected" (aka "Infection Z"). And I assume that the "Infection Z" title is a bad attempt to cash in on the blockbuster "World War Z" movie. But regardless of the reason, then this movie was really not worth the effort.

The zombies in the movie were far in between shots, and they weren't actually zombies as in the sense of being shambling and decaying. Well, it does make sense if this is the first stages of decay. But still, with the ridiculous sounds they were making, it was more of a spoof on the zombie genre than it was actually appearing as a proper, serious movie.

And as hard as it is to take Michael Madsen seriously, then it came even more difficult given the horrible hat he was wearing just about 99% of the entire movie. That hat was just ridiculous to look at.

The most uplifting part about "Infected" was perhaps that William Forsythe was in the movie, but it was hardly anywhere remotely near enough to make it worthwhile suffering through the entire movie. I did manage to stick with the movie to the very end, hoping that there would be just one moment to make it worth it, but there wasn't such an occurrence.

The DVD movie I received from Amazon was titled "Infection Z" and it had a very apocalyptic image of a metropolis in ruin and flames on the back cover. This was the worst kind of misleading imagery ever. Because the entire movie takes places at an isolated homestead somewhere out in a forest in the middle of nowhere.

What can I say about "Infected"? Well, stay well clear of it, or you might be infected with a bad case of boredom.

This movie was so bad. Really, really bad. It's like watching one of those crappy, instantly forgettable 1980's creature features but without the charm.

This is a siege movie and there isn't really anything more to the plot. People are infected with a zombie-like virus and attack our heroes, who are all hanging out at that eternal target of flesh eating monsters, a remote farm house.

Michael Madsen and William Forsythe are featured prominently as a couple of tough old hunters and both are bad, although different kinds of bad. Madsen gives the same gravelly, slightly disinterested performance he's been doing since Kill Bill. Forysthe goes the other route, with a weird piece of crazy over acting that left me feeling embarrassed for the talented character actor. Christy Romano, child star of Even Stevens and of Mirrors 2, is literally the only good piece of the cast and she is really trying to do good work. She doesn't have that much screen time though.

This flick has crappy picture quality, lame effects, laughable dialog, and is all around terrible. Just avoid it. It isn't even funny.

The guy in the cowboy hat was awful. He yelled in scenes that didn't call for him to yell at all. He sounded like a man scolding his children not directing commands to other adults. I'm also not sure the point of the son at the end in that garage. That went on forever and nothing even happened. I was shocked that the refrigerator that he appeared to attack to open had no food but yet the freezer was working well and it was spotless, clean. Come on guys, low budget doesn't mean it should be crap.

This is not entertainment, it's anti-tainment. If you've rented this for say 99p, I'd say you'd have a strong case for getting your money back under the Sale of Goods Act, because it is not fit for purpose. You won't even enjoy this if you enjoy bad horror films, because this is not bad in a good-natured, well meaning way - it's bad in a needing-to-go-to-the-dentist-for-a-filling kind of way.

Mundane. Boring. Utterly devoid of interest, it is something that must be merely endured. If you've had the misfortune to buy this, I urge you to destroy it without watching it. Take your time about it, it's the only way you're going to have any fun here. A lot of people were involved in making this film, yet astoundingly not one of them seems to have thought "hold on, this is crap, isn't it?" All of these people should be stripped of whatever filmic credentials they possess and prevented from working in the industry again, under threat of lengthy jail time. Their equipment should be slowly crushed in front of them, until they get the message: "this is not for you - find something else to do. Shame on you. Shame on you." As for Madsen and Forsythe's involvement.....I am flabbergasted. I can only assume somebody's got a big sheaf of very incriminating photos indeed locked away in a safety deposit box somewhere.

I found myself wanting to fast forward to get to the adverts, only to realise there were none. I longed for the superior plot, dialogue, casting and scoring of say, your average Go Compare advert.
