    A serious version of "Zombieland". More of a horror then comedy. Not a bad movie, little slow in parts. I say C
    "We die, or worse yet, we die and comeback." After the collapse of the US economy and a horrific vampire epidemic sweeps the country very few humans are left. Along with vampire hunter Mister (Damici), Martin (Paolo) decides to drive to Canada for safety. This will probably be a short review. The only way to explain this really is that this is a serious version of "Zombieland", only with vampires and not zombies. Both have a older and a younger man who travel together and kill bad guys. They meet a girl on the way who joins them. Only thing this is missing is a cameo by a big name star. Unlike "Zombieland" though this one went straight serious and horror, which isn't a bad thing really. Overall, not a bad movie, but I prefer the comedy one better. I give it a C.

    Would I watch again? - Probably not, but it made me want to watch "Zombieland" again.

    *Also try - Shadowland & Zombieland
