fondling a flat chested woman holds more excitement then this


first and foremost, this is one of blockbuster floppy, jallops which came into my palms because it was the most interesting looking one which should tell you about blockbuster.

second, if you've seen one zombie movie, you seened it all. despite 28 days later and dawn of the dead remake, running fast or moving slow is nothing new.
dead people est only humans, and seem to attack living people.

third, when the son of the corporate's chairman of the board (im guessing the main character) get's his face blood splattered by a zombie who got cut by an industrial saw while attempting to orally molest his sinews, should tell you that it's straight BS.
If you know zombie 101, you know that blood, bites, saliva, and kind of intermitent dead contact automatically makes you a zombie. my case is backed up by how easily this bleeding blood sap quickly enters the blood stream of would be zombies, quickly turning them. since when did the properties of blood on skin become isolated to this fact?

fourth, you know who's going to die and speaking of which, what the hell are people still chained to trees doing unscathed, only until they're found by the chased, only to then be eaten?

fifth, have you ever notice in zombie movies, no matter the gore or stage of decay, people never mention anything of odors? i'm sure if my impending doom moment came from zombie assaults, i would smell it, especially if there's a gang of them.

Actually your third point wasn't my main problem with this film, since the skin acts as an effective barrier to most viruses and pathogens. In 28 Days Later, contact with the skin wasn't enough, unless you had an open wound that let the virus into your bloodstream. The father who became a zombie got zombie blood in his eye, which is a direct route to the bloodstream.

I agree with your other points and found myself almost shaking my tv screen when they abandoned their truck without even trying to ram thru the locked gate. You can break free a person chained to a tree but can't outwit a padlock? That's unforgivable character stupidity. Later they couldn't hike out with the chopper patrolling since it might shoot at them. Uh, maybe night would be better since it's a civilian chopper without night-vision equipment? Duh.

This made as much sense as most 'horror' movies where some slasher has just killed a good friend, so naturally a couple is overcome with lust and must find privacy to have sex. Privacy so they too can be killed of course, but that level of stupidity makes you root for the slasher/zombie/maniac. I was hoping the zombies would make a clean sweep in Severed.

It was really sad to see the guy who played a recurring character on Stargate SG-1 in this film, as the traitor named Carter. Maybe the name was a joke since he had a romance with the character on SG-1 named Carter, but unemployment would be better than dreck like Severed.
