With a title like Storm Of The Dead you naturally expect a zombie flick, this isn't.
Immediately I found myself a tad uncomfortable as the film opens with a series of news reports about a storm raging across the Caribbean and hitting Florida which is exactly what's happening in real life at time of writing.
Once I'd gotten past the shock of that I gave this story about a militia search and rescue mission gone wrong a try and was confused at the absence of zombies.
The story culminates quite well and is fairly interesting, but the route there is slow and poorly constructed.
Storm of The Dead is hyper low budget make no mistake, but I feel they still could have done a lot more with the material.
The Good:
Some nice ideas
Some interesting characters
The Bad:
A bit deceptive
Amateurishly made
Very slow burner
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
If you have the choice between travelling on land or wading through a swamp was then do the latter, especially when chasing someone
