The Clearing

This is worth a watch, but only once. Good fathers day movie for teens to watch, they may appreciate dad a little more.

It is a shoe string budget production with limited number of sets and locations. Special effects are extremely minimal with very quick camera shots to hide it.

The acting by the main character, the dad , is very good. With a better script and more money he could have carried the movie a lot farther. Oh well.

This movie is more like a snapshot of a couple days , not explaining how the sickness starts or even if it is world wide. For all the audience knows it could be just the immediate few miles. No way to tell.

I would not call it a zombie movie. The infected would be a better way to see it. They are not dead. And they die just fine. More of a 28 days effect than anything else.

The sick are pretty convincing, I have to admit. The daughter is your typical spoiled teen brat so no issues there.

There is no closure to the bigger infection story, the audience is asked to be content with the predictable ending involving father and daughter.

Probably a better watch if you drink a few beers first. I have given up alcohol, so I had to watch it dry.

I seen worse.

I'm not a massive fan of zombie films. But this movie wasn't too bad. I've seen alot worse.

Lacks originality, logic, it's repetitive, and the acting is absolutely terrible all around.

If you've ever seen 10 minute of a zombie movie, imagine playing that in a loop, and you get this movie.

Without giving anything away (there's nothing to give away!), here are a few inane points: zombies appear out of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, where a father is camping with his daughter for a couple of days only. What are the odds?!

Also, the zombies scream in pain when hit; aren't zombies supposed to be dead, and unfeeling?

Year 2020 saw cheap, silly movies like this one popping up like mushrooms after the rain. I don't know if it's the fault of COVID-19, or the free streaming lowered the entertanment standards, but movies like this are worthless, and a total waste of time, and other resources such as bandwidth.

A good looking cover to a long, very boring movie with a lot of stupid plots.

Full of cliches and massive plot holes. Why did the little girl leave the camper in the first place? For a person who rather play on her phone, why did she leave it? Zombies now can climb ladders and like to fist fight.
