Condemned

This is a very well shot horror comedy with a nice sense of the absurd. The cinematography is far above average. The story is standard zombie pap, but delivered with an atmosphere that catches a certain fancy, rewards attention to detail, and reminded me of "Rec" (the original Spanish version 2007,) and Dan O'Bannon's "The Return of the Living Dead " (1985.)

I didn't realize, until I checked out the IMDb page after watching the movie, that the lead girl was Sean Penn's daughter. She was pretty impressive... attractive in a tough sort of way... kind of ugly-cute like her father. She most certainly grasped my attention and delivered a compelling performance.

This is not a bad film.(Of course, it's not a great film,) But it is well worth a watch. It has a definite grounded attitude, sense of the absurd, and a cool, (but admittedly gross,) visual style. It well deserves at least double the 3.5 rating in its IDMB main page.
