Great Film

First, I wanted to say that I really liked it a lot. I had been reading in the reviews how people kept saying that the film had an original and truly unique look, and now that I have seen it I would have to agree. I know it was made on a low budget, but it has a great professional look. The details are super crisp and the color is fantastic. I love the blending of the real life, the models, and CGI effects, it all comes together for a very stylized effect.

Aside from the zombies, the story reminded me a lot of the classic movie, “On Dangerous Ground” with the whole notion of the hunter and the hunted. I think the main character Patrice LeBlanc does a fantastic job in the film. He has a great look to him that I think would help make the sequels a great success. I am not sure why, but I kept getting this cool Jean-Claude Van Damme / Dolph Lundgren vibe from him... Maybe its from watching Universal Soldier to many times as a kid, but I definitely think its a good thing.

What movie were you watching? Because it isn't the same one I saw. Terrible from start to finish. You must be the director's mom if you're saying you liked this movie, although I doubt even she could sit through the entire thing.

I actually liked the trailer but wanted to know if anyone else watched it before I downloaded it. The postive review from this David guy was very suspect but now I know it is *beep* I won't waste my time.

I saw it in 2008, at a Film Festival and I thought that it was the best one that I saw. I've seen loads, and I mean loads of B and Z movies, and this is one of the best low budget films I've ever seen.
