It's not a bad film.
It's definitely not a good film.
The acting is so so.
The effects are alright.
The story is okay.
But if next-doors dog doesn't require you pushing back in its piles, then this is a pleasant way to spend am hour & twenty minutes.

This is such a mind numbingly terrible movie I was at a loss of words, years from now there will be contests held to see how long you can sit through it. Terribly shot, with mediocre acting at best, it chooses to saturate itself with internet jokes and watered down video game references instead of developing a plot or believable characters. The pacing is all wrong, and the failed "action" scenes left much more to be desired.
It actually appalled me how little they put into their characters, it seemed that with so much useless dialogue clogging the scenes of the movie, you'd be able to at least personalize one character, sadly this wasn't the case. HVZ is a terrible movie that isn't worth the 103 minutes it took from me, avoid it if you can.

It takes a lot for me to not allow a movie to finish so I know what the ending is like. I even finished "2012:Ice Age" and that has got to be one of the most ridiculous movies I have ever seen or reviewed.
Now before anyone says that I don't get the genre, I love "The Walking Dead" and have seen almost all the zombie apocalypse movies out there but this one was just...BAD.
The plot was err...lame, although with some creative writing it could have been made into something.
The dialogue for this must have been written by an eight year old because in reality, my cat could craft better dialogue. Now that doesn't mean that all good movies have great dialogue because there are some out there with very cheesy dialogue, but with a good actor or actress it can be delivered very powerfully.
Unfortunately for this movie, only one of the actors appeared to have actually studied the craft. I think the casting interview consisted of one question, "Hey, want to be in a zombie movie?" I place this movie into the category of: "There are some thing we just wish we had never seen."

The first 4 reviews actually misled me into watching this movie. Anyone giving this film more than 2 stars is obviously in cahoots with the production.
Overall: unbearable. The quality of the production itself is decent, but even with all the rogue pop-culture references and randomly-placed aerial shots, these just don't even begin to make up for the story and acting.
Acting: terrible, with the exception of the "Brad" character who is pretty much the sole source of comedy in the film - so he doesn't count.
Plot: terrible. The very beginning was somewhat interesting, enough to lure you in, but then it becomes incredibly dull for the majority of the movie. If you enjoy endless, pointless, and mind-numbing teenage conversation mixed with a flat plot development - this film is for you.
This film was so bad, in fact, that it rubbed off on the film we decided to watch afterwards. This is what I get for choosing a film with such an unimaginative title like "Humans Versus Zombies."

OK, I went to the screening with the assumption that this would be an OK movie due to the budget size, but let me tell you I was completely surprised at the content of this movie. It was well shot, great cinematography, great soundtrack, the acting was really good, you really believed the emotion and were drawn into it. the comedic element of the lines in the movie really surprised me and made this a very enjoyable movie...
although it is not the most kid friendly as it had a few adult scenes, but what horror movie doesn't? Brian Jaynes really out did himself. you can tell that the cast and crew really worked hard and they came up with a winner in my book. 5 stars. the only reason I gave it an 8 instead of 10 was because it did have a few imperfections but they did not detract from the enjoyability of this movie. would definitely recommend it to my friends.
