    Hey, i watched this tonight after searching for ages for a zombie film I had not seen. Though it was ok, watched a dubbed english version. The original movie is french.

    For people who haven seen this movie what is your opinion?

    I liked it.Dubbed movies tend to take away from the movie IMO.Its not a zombie classic by any means but its a fun,throwaway piece of comic book cheese.

    I enjoyed it, but also found it the most frustrating Zombie movie ever.

    By the end of some of the scenes which involved martial arts style combat and people pumping bullets into the chest arms and legs of the infected i was literally screaming "Shoot them in the ****ing head"!

    Forgettable but enjoyable. Definitely a one to watch for Zombie fans. It was pretty well made on a small budget. Loved that scene on the car.

    It's pretty much Left 4 Dead meets Assault on Precinct 13. It's a thoroughly enjoyable film but the aversion to head shots really annoys, it's repeatedly shown that a bullet to the brain is the best way to stop the oncoming enemy yet our heroes repeatedly waste entire mags shooting the zombies everywhere but the head.

    Yeah, I didn't get why they didn't just aim for the head either. I thought it was an enjoyable, late night, zombie film. I've never really seen someone take on a zombie with martial arts before, so that was good.

    I'll have to refer you to Peter Jackson's Brain Dead then, when a Father Ted lookalike kicks the shìte out of some zombies :pac:

    I watched the original version and I wanted to like this film but I thought it was a bit crap, it started promising but quickly nosedived. I love cheesy movies and especially zombie movies but I couldn't warm to it. Had some good pieces alright but some non-sensical plotholes and terrible dialogue left a sour taste by the end.

    One of the more forgettable zombie movies I've seen, even in the cheesy so bad it's good factor.
