This film truly sucks. It's not even worth watching for free. Don't do it to yourself.
The script is mind-numbingly dull. It's 95% talking with some very average jokes occasionally and about 10 zombies. The plot is non-existant. The acting is weak, but the actors didn't have much to work with. The cinematography and direction is basic and uninspiring. At least the sound/dialogue is clear. The zombie makeup is not bad.
They also use paintballs to kill zombies...
I'm all for low budget, but this is not good at all; it's boring and there's way too much dialogue. Even with low budget you can still make a great film. The director and producers chose not to do this. In fact, I think the director didn't actually do anything.
Zombie films are easy prey for low budget, but the filmmakers are just lazy here. Apparently it's a bunch of guys and a token girl hiding in a telephone exchange with zombies outside. Sound like a great premise for a zombie film? No, it really doesn't.
At the time of writing it has a 4.9 rating on IMDB. It doesn't deserve this rating. It deserves a rating of zero. I would've given it at least 1, but it lost that when a zombie picked up a swipe card and immediately went and used it to open a door. Unfortunately 1 is the lowest I can give this total bucket of puss.

I don't get why this film has as many good reviews on here both from users and critics.
I didn't find it particularly funny nor horrific. The acting was not that good either.
I keep getting suckered in by Zombie films and regretting it...
Still at least it's not found footage...Only give this a go cheap or on TV etc...

This is a boring, terribly written, poorly executed, cheaply shot, amateurish production. Even for a deliberately stupid zombie comedy "Shaun of the Dead" knockoff, this movie is pitiful. The acting is horrifyingly bad. The jokes are terrible. The story is mind-numbing and stupid. There is nothing good about this movie whatsoever. Not even an occasional laugh, or any cool effects or zombie kills. There's only a handful of zombie extras and it looks like they made this for about ten bucks. They repeat the same jokes over and over. This is the worst zombie comedy film I've ever seen. Skip it. You're welcome.
This was just God awful. Definitely no Shaun of the Dead. I don't know if there's an Australian humour that doesn't translate, but I had to turn it off after 50 minutes. There honestly wasn't even anything redeemable enough for it to deserve one star.
I see a bunch of negative reviews and I gotta say they're wrong. This movie is hilarious. I don't know what they were expecting but it delivered what I was expecting. Loved it.
