Storyline

Following a near-apocalyptic zombie outbreak, humans are once again in control. If an occasional rogue zombie finds its way into everyday life, it is quickly disposed of by the authorities. In this day and age, people know how to handle "Zee's". The latest craze is the Zombie Safari - Zafari - a chance to go out and shoot the undead in the wild. The ultimate blood sport experience, and for many the ultimate therapeutic revenge following the losses suffered during the outbreak. Little do the vacationers realize they're actually in a highly controlled environment, where the zombies are always kept at a safe shooting distance. Nothing is left to chance, nothing is unplanned. So far.

Goofs

In the initial exposition, it's explained that the last major concentrations of undead (except for the Rezort island) were wiped out ten years in the past. However, nobody ever questions how it's possible that the Rezort has had undead shooting expeditions for years without ever running out of them.

User Reviews

Not a b flick SYFY not bad at all

This is a good movie.The producer wanted a Jurassic Park-like movie with zombies instead of dinosaurs.They succeeded.I won't bore with what the movie is about more than that.I was impressed by the acting.Most b flicks have actors with poor skills.These actors act as if they were in a big budget blockbuster.No phoning it in, in The Rezort.Character development happens while the action takes place so there is no boring first half hour.Thank you for that! This is how an action movie should be...just enough character development as we go along so we care about the characters and still get to be thrilled by the action.

The location(Phillipines) and props are interesting and engaging.This doesn't seem like a low budget movie.

However,i would have preferred the "disaster" happen a little less suddenly,it seemed a little rushed.It does set up several situations for us to want follow up on though.The zombies are different from the usual zombie in that they seem a little smarter than they should be..but that makes the Rezort and it's purpose all the more compelling and controversial.A little cheesy at times but nothing too over the top.

Great make up effects,great camera work..this is a professionally made movie.Worth a watch...you might even watch it again.It borders on b flick for its few flaws but overall this is not a b flick SYFY movie.
