Is this for real?

[anthonyw61185 · 1/10 · 8 April 2014]

Okay, thankfully I only lost an hour of my time, instead of paying any money for this. This is horrible and that says a lot for an independent movie. This is supposed to be a zombie movie right? They had what like 2 zombie attacks? And it was the same zombies over and over again. What is even more surprising is that there was a script for this. I guess the "directors" cared more about a boring story than zombies. Seriously, who decides to put in a 10 minute scene of someone on a cell phone? Don't even get me started on the "gun fight scenes". They are laughable and just down right sad. It's really hard to imagine that they thought they made a good movie.

Seriously, don't waste your time watching this. This is a very poor excuse for a zombie movie. I would rather watch Warm Bodies over and over again, than watch this again. This is more of a student project movie (that would probably fail as well), rather than a real movie.

I do respect the independent community and the filmmakers. But this isn't anything close to a film. It's a shame that anyone with a camera thinks they can make movies. They can't and this movie proves it on all points. This will be the last time I watch anything from this company. I just can't stomach wasting my time with their "movies".

A very shaky mess.

This film was a mess that seemed to be filmed with a dated camcorder as most of the shots throughout the entire film were either out of focus, completely dark where your unable to see anything at all, wildly shaking camera shots or just a poor choice of shooting altogether such as pointing at the ground, etc.

You can forget seeing zombies in this film because you will hardly see any at all, a few quick glances at some, and a few glances at the end. A couple of times, something would run by with glow sticks on their head which I don't understand how it tied into the movie or maybe it was a zombie fresh from a rave, who knows?

The dialogue in this move is awful and at ties either forgotten or just plain ad-libbed by young people who did not appear to be trained actors and it showed. It seemed like this was rushed, poorly planned and done without editing. I'll give this movie 1 out of 10 shakes.

Flush this down!

This movie is best described in one word.....CRAP!

How can this be a zombie movie, with like only 10 zombies? After 10 minutes of watching this. I started playing a drinking game, anyone something made no sense at all. I was plastered 35 minutes into this movie. That is how bad this movie is.

It really is a shame that independent movies have came to this. Any idiot with a camera and go film something. That is exactly what this movie is. This had no planning at all, horrible acting, bad script (was there even a script for this. I know it says writer Jordan Salkil, but I doubt there was a script), poor editing, extremely poor directing, and numerous other things that would max out the word count.

Two of the best things in this movie are - - - 1. One of the soldier's camera zooms, when its steady. I'm not sure if it is an actor doing it. But whoever was filming at the time, is a total moron. They should stay away from any type of camera. That includes a camera phone. 2. What the hell was Project 51? A guy in some type of slicker suit? You could barely even see it, because of the poor editing and camera work.

This movie is best described this way. After you go to the bathroom and you see the turd floating in the toilet. You try to flush it, but it won't go down and it clogs the drain. That is exactly what this movie is. You try to get rid of it, but it won't go away. I was going to comment on the video, but Eye Open Pictures or New Order Films or whatever they call themselves, is to chicken to have open comments. I guess they are embarrassed of this piece of crap as well. Hopefully no one bought this movie. Because that is the same thing as burning your money. IMDb really needs a 0 on the ratings, because that is what this needs.

Terrible on every level

Just like the title says. This movie is terrible from the start.

Acting? - You can tell there is no script. The actors just keep repeating the same thing over and over again. I think there was more swearing, than anything else.

Direction? - There was a director? There were TWO DIRECTORS? You can't be serious?! Was there really a need for a director? It seems this was just some moron holding a camera and told the actors, to think there are zombies out there.

Script? - Like I said earlier. There is no script for this movie. I don't even know why there is a credit for this. Because THERE WAS NO SCRIPT.

Zombies? - Yep. There are like a total of 10 zombies and they used the same people over and over again. It's not hard to see zombies being reused. I think these zombies were going trick or treating, because the make up was HORRIBLE!!!!

Editing? - Thumbs up for your weak editing skills. It was very oblivious a scene on the street was filmed twice. Nice work.

There was a $10,000 budget? Really? I mean come on. Really?

I am really thankful that this is for free online. Because I wouldn't even give them 5 cents to see this movie again. They would seriously have to pay me to watch this movie. Just like the rest of Eye Open Pictures movies, this one is with the rest, TRASH! Don't even waste your time watching any of their movies.

I am currently in film school at Iowa State and this movie breaks every rule, you would learn in school. This is nothing but friends taking a camera out and thinking they are filmmakers.

Waste of my time

I am all for low-budget movies. That is the beauty of finding stuff on Youtube. You will see all times of low budget movies. So I really do have a high tolerance to bad movies. But Dead Will Rise 2, I can't forgive at all. This movie is without a doubt the worst piece of crap, I've ever seen in my life. It is like the director or in this case directors, didn't care about anything about this movie. You have a "zombie" movie where you have the same zombies throughout the movie. It is very easy to tell, they recycled zombies around. The movie pads its run time with a 10-minutes of a little kid talking to the camera. I had to fast forward that part, because it was a complete waste of time. There is also a park scene at the beginning that MAKES NO SENSE! Maybe I need to watch the first one, to understand that.

Then we get to the special effects. We have an arm ripped off and zombies rip open the stomach. It is very clear that the arm was totally fake. They made no effort to making it look real. The zombies ripping open the stomach, looked cheap, with dollar store effects. I couldn't tell if it was sausage or what. But it was absolutely terrible looking.

There was even a shot of a zombie sitting in the bathroom. How did a zombie get trapped in a bathroom and decide to sit down on the toilet and wait for the door to open? Horrible attempt a cheap jump scare.

I haven't watched the first movie and I'm very hesitant to even check it out. What's funny is that there is a writer for this movie. There is no script for this at all. The dialogue is sub-par at best and the story drags on. The pacing is the biggest killer of the movie. A lot of things that don't make sense at all. I'm not trying to totally discredit the movie. But the lack of effort put forth in this movie, is terrible. The editing, lighting, sound (all from the camera by the way), directing, "writing", and acting are just horrible. I am all for independent filmmakers to make movies. But this isn't even worth trying.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS MOVIE!!!! This is without a doubt the single worst movie I've ever seen in my life. I've checked out their other trailers and they look equality as crap.
