Severed (2005)
one of the best zombie movies of the 2000'th
loved it. great acting, great suspense, no bullshit. good camera work too. the plot was interesting and not predictable like most of the horror/gore/zombie movies i saw recently. the zombies were cool and the movie as a whole had nice special effects.
even the story behind the background of the development of the "disease" makes sense in a way (after they explain it) and doesn't sound too idiotic like the onces we heard in the past. at least this one did'nt come from outer space , ah?
other excellent zombie movies i saw lately: REC [2007] - maybe the best one - its in Spanish though, but very very special. the mad [2007]
Dreamcatcher (2003)
you must be crazy - this movie was awesome !!
you must be crazy - this movie was awesome !! not a boring minute. it shifted between different topics so fast, kept my mind busy all the time. i didn't see that alien invasion thing coming , it was quite a surprise. indeed it was obvious there was an "alien issue" of the background with some higher power kinda' thing, but i didn't see the end coming. i bet both of us had our share of crappy movies in the past, but this one ... boy oh boy - it was a piece of art. great acting, great script, great special effects, constant suspense. what else could you ask for? how can you say it was "so so" ? you must be crazy.
The Gore Gore Girls (1972)
don't watch this movie
what a lousy movie, took me 3 times to finish it. The thing i disliked the most was the infantile sense of humor. jokes made by a 10 years old child. not funny. pretty annoying actually, for example when the detective cant get a place at the bar he yells "she's taking it all off" and then they all run "fast foreward" slapstick kinda' rush. so stupid. and also a guy sitting at the bar smashing fruit to work out his post traumatic stress disorder. on the bar! and the bartender is supplying him with more and more fresh fruit. thats supposed to be funny? and i mean ... i love good ol' exploitation gore flicks, and saw a lot of terrible movies, but his one is plain bad. and also the "gore" is not that exciting. don't bother. i wouldn't recommend it.
Le notti del terrore (1981)
This Kid is scary !!
Loved this movie, enjoyed every moment. Even though the zombies looked simply like guys wearing masks rather than a "special effect" kinda' zombies, which was a bit disappointing, i will let it slide since these were the early 80's, and unlike many other excellent Italian zombie movies such as "flesh eaters - Zombie 2" or "cemetery man" that came much later, where the zombies were pretty convinsive, i hold much respect for the Italian horror film industry.
And by the way i don't think the acting was that bad, unlike some other comments here, i mean come'on ... we've all seen much worse im sure. the acting here was OK. But whats up with this kid ah ??!! what a weird looking dude, looks like he have progeria - this disease where the young kids age faster. he looks like an adult. loved this little guy.
All and all: excellent zombie movie.
