Skycrap

This movie is just plain bad. The acting is was unnatural and horrible. The man character 13, had the charisma of a depress teenager who was forced to make this movie and spoke his lines like it was read while being filmed off a teleprompter. There was absolutely no energy, hard to believe with a movie about survival and fighting alien zombie need a hefty serving of Red Bull to boost energy of the actors. Even though I thought the picture quality was decent, but the movie felt it was done by high school kid.

Sorry to burst the lead character's bubble, but he shouldn't take acting seriously as a future occupation.

Oh btw, who the heck has time to go on dates when zombies are hunting you down? What kind of joke is this... who wrote this crap?

He's crap. Crap actor and ugly to boot.

"spoke his lines like it was read while being filmed off a teleprompter."

I think all the characters did. Jump to any part in the movie and all the children just read their lines, clearly trying very hard to enunciate properly and sometimes putting a slight emphasis on certain words like during a dull political speech (eg "they said my FATHER was a TRADER" "damn right, one of the BEST")

I just tried to watch this one.
Got bored instantly. Had to fast forward tons of scenes to avoid getting sleepy.

Acting was dull. Story was really dull. The girl was ok (Coliee) but the rest of the cast can't act (or perhaps, didn't).

I'll give it a try sometime in the future (if i feel like wasting a good 90 minute space), but for the moment i'll refrain from giving it a score. Unlike some people that just give it a 1 and didn't watch it completely, or give it a 10 because "they support the movie". Thats how IMDB Score looses meaning.

BTW, i love low budget films when they have at least one of : acting talent, good story, ingenuity, well used fx (even if it is 80s like), or you can relate to the story/lead.

This movie had none of the above. (well, it did have some decent fx, but badly put and utilized)
