I love horror movies. I love bad horror movies and I love
good horror movies. Being a George Romero fan I love zombie movies too. But
when a zombie movie goes bad it goes really bad. That happens with this film.
In the future a virus has killed most everyone turning them
into blood seeking zombies. But a few survivors have had children that have a
natural immunity to the disease. Not only that, the zombies don't attack or
attempt to eat these children. With three bloody lines across their necks, you
know exactly what is coming. Hello? Gills anyone?
The story is told by a young girl as she treks her way to
the sea where her dreams have told her to go in search of a giant octopus and a
ship that will take these children away. Spoiler alert if you care: yes, they
reach their destination and they then change.
It doesn't make a difference if I told you the outcome of
this movie or not. Having to sit through it was torture that even being eaten
alive would have possibly been better experiencing. The film takes the zombie
motif and tries to turn it into an art film. Ho hum. The worst sin a horror
movie can make is to be boring. This film does that in spades. Let me just say that a second viewing of PLAN
9 FROM OUTER SPACE would be more entertaining than this film. Watch it at your
own risk.
