Another Z flick? Is there a quota for this crap or something?!

I can never get enough zombies, if they are good ones. Haven't seen this one yet. But found footage, I am beyond sick of it. That and the night vision shaky cam. I hate that stuff with the hatred of a thousand burning suns.

I couldnt agree more, Z movies are a plague on the film industry when they are done wrong, Darkest Day is just one of these, but found footage films... those I really dislike, no plot and no skill needed...
It was a nice refreshing change to the genre when Found footage came to the screen, with Blair Witch, like it or hate it, it was wonderfully done on a shoes string budget, now we have all these wannabe's running around making trash movies.

Z movies however is still a strong genre, but they do need a few key factors to make them worth the effort, good actors/director/makeup/script and a plot, this film failed on most those factors, look at World war Z, complete waste of time, even with good actors it still flopped, and it had a huge budget, I liked the movie, but as a whole it failed also.

I think that Dan Rickard did use some interesting techniques while making this but not enough to make me sit through it again, oof scenes/shaky camera and poor dialogue and wth happened to the plot? its like watching 28 days later in a comic strip.

I can't recall seeing a zombie in recent years and I watch nearly everything that gets released in the US. I believe the last one I saw was World War Z in 2013, and I have high hopes for the sequel directed by David Fincher. There appears to be a big following anticipating it's release, so it's safe to conclude that people have not had enough of zombie movies.
