I love bad movies. Not this one though. Apart from the super quick cutaways to the awesome graphics of the gameplay.

My friend rented this piece of crap and begged me to watch it with him. I knew it would be bad, but I never ever could have imagined just how bad it could be! I mean it, there is no real plot and the zombies look so fake that at times I though I was watching a comedy instead of a horror. The actors look bored, and the filmmakers clearly have no respect for their audience - this is obvious from the way that the real life action is interspersed with footage from the video game on which this is based - almost as if they think the audience are so moronic that unless it is made explicit that this is based on a game they will not comprehend it. I almost didn't because the game was actually great fun and there is nothing fun at all about this film!

In august me and some friends went on a trip to the mountains for the weekend and we brought with us this particular movie to watch it the same night. Me and the guys just love scary movies and we were exited to watch this one. During the movie i felt that no one was enjoying this but no one spoke till the end of the movie. Our first impression was oh my god? who's idea was that? is this really supposed to be scary? In brief our night was ruined by this clumsy boring movie that i wouldn't give this more then 1 star over 10 and u'll do the same when you watch but i don't recommend you because u'll be wasting your time...and get this , another movie was also made by the same director and its called alone in the dark and i also had the bad luck to watch it and its better than this one. So i just wanna say when you think a video game is cool , it doesn't really mean we have to watch the movie about the game...

Yes its obviously and there is all kinds of faults. But at the endof the day, I was entertained throughout the whole movie. Even if just when i'm laughing at how terrible some scenes are. Most of these movies are meant to ne horrid. BUT they DO entertain. To me the really atrocious and unwatchable movies are the ones that dont entertain. And you get bored snd choose something else. This had a fairly quick pace that made up for it's flaws slightly.

Being a fan of the "Living Dead" genre of films, I thought, despite the awful rating given to this film by my fellow users, I'd give it a chance. (BIG mistake) The acting was nothing short of terrible. The plot, non-existent. The "Matrix inspired" freeze and pan special effect was grossly over used. (pardon the grammar) The insertion of clips from the video game made the action scenes ridiculous and added nothing to the film. If anything it made it a bigger joke than it already was. If that was even possible. And the gore was mediocre at best. From the beginning, I knew this would NOT be one for the DVD collection and as the film went on.. and on.. and on.. it became apparent that I may possibly be watching the worst film since Plan 9 from Outer Space.

I rented this film not knowing who Uwe Boll was, and boy howdy what a harsh lesson to learn. This film is utter tripe, beyond being humorously bad like Troll 2. The second Uwe Boll started splicing in-game footage of Sega's House of the Dead into the opening sequence this movie was destined to be crap. It perfectly exemplifies his status as an amateur director, using a technique that might have sounded cool on paper (to a 5 year old) but comes across as laughably (in hindsight) pathetic. Poor acting, predictable characters, heck, even the nudity is poor (no offense to the actress). Maybe Uwe Boll is actively trying to be like Ed Wood, believing that after he is dead a neo-Tim Burton will create a masterful biopic of his awful movies. Bah, I feel like I'm wasting so much breath on Boll, and he doesn't deserve it. The movie is rubbish, don't bother.

I ordered the DVD of this film in the hope that it would be a half-decent zombie film. Unfortunately, it didn't even manage that. In one of the DVD extras, a 'making of' documentary, one of the producers says "that they didn't need to worry about the script" and that the main problem was the zombie makeup. However, the makers would have been better off spending more time and effort getting a decent plot and script, rather than getting a contraption that took entirely useless 360 degree shots that didn't even fit into the action. This film makes Resident Evil look like a zombie movie masterpiece, I advise you not to watch it, it's not even "so bad it's good", it's just plain bad.
