4/10
The usual comedy horror
30 January 2018
Warning: Spoilers
DEAD BEFORE DAWN is a pretty silly Canadian comedy horror featuring the usual high school slackers with few brain cells to spare between them. They accidentally unleash an ancient curse which turns the dead into demons, much like DEATHGASM, although the emphasis is very much on zombie flicks here. The usual silly jokes and cheesy gore prosthetics follow, along with mannered acting and unlikeable characters. An early Christopher Lloyd cameo is one of the best things about this otherwise lacklustre production. The main thing that spoils it is the direction, which switches to stupid slow motion every time there's a big action scene and makes some moments almost unwatchable.
