Storyline

Trivia

A plan by the survivors in the movie was to make it to the southern tip of the Baja peninsula because the zombies could not walk that far in under one day. At the beginning of the movie, Rourke (Johnny Strong) comes across a zombie girl holed up at an abandoned gas station in the middle of the desert inside of a freezer just after sunrise. The scene suggests it would have taken too long for the zombie to reach another city in less than a day.

Goofs

In the shootout near the beginning of the movie several of the car windows are shot out multiple times.

Pretty Entertaining

Really enjoyed William Kaufman's and Johnny Strong's last outing together in Sinners and Saints back in 2010. That's also the last time Johnny Strong had been on screen except a small short in-between. I wish I could see Johnny Strong do more movies as he normally does quite well Sinners and Saints was a great action flick and I enjoyed Daylight's End just as much.

This movie had a lot of what I like, post apocalyptic setting, lot's of action, some Sci-fi mixed in. This was a good movie for what it was. I see many people saying it's good for a low budget flick while that's true, I have also seen many big budget movies that were really bad. If you have a pretty good script like this and some OK actors and actresses, even on a small budget it can be very enjoyable. That's just what this movie is a good way to spend a few hours. Sure it's not earth shattering but we did enjoy it for the few hours we watched it.

So go in with an open mind and don't expect the world and you might just come out having enjoyed this flick.
