Average good movie, fun as any other of its type, 11 August 2009
6/10
Author: Mauricio Silva Barrios from Brazil

I watched this movie on Fantaspoa/2009. It matched my expectations. This is an average zombie movie. It's well produced, good effects and good sound (considering a low-budget zombie film), good takes. The story is no big deal, but one really can't do any different with zombie movies. And it's light and a bit funny, so it reaches all audiences. All the clichés are there, so if you're into originality, don't watch it. If, on the other hand, you're in the mood to just relax your brain a little, but not with a girl's romance, this is a good choice.

It looks pretty much like a regular Hollywood teen movie, but with zombies. At least it's entertaining, you can get distracted for more than an hour. Much more than some million-dollar "Horror" movies can accomplish.
