ThiefHott Too much of everything

Console best movie i've ever seen.

Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Nigel P People are stupid. Some people are very stupid. Usually, characters in horror films are at least slightly stupid, otherwise they wouldn't constantly get entangled in the mess that fuels the drama. But when the leads are six forensic undergrads who embark on a scientific expedition, you expect a certain degree of sense. Their project takes them to a remote island that was once used as illegal biological testing grounds for life-term prisoners. When we get our first glimpses of what remains of these prisoners, the effects are stomach churning.Also, the Canadian woods used as location used are pleasingly bleak and bathed in winter crispness. To their credit, the undergrads do many things right here; it's just that the walking dead keep on coming. There are many, many zombies in popular entertainment currently, and as is often the case, their ubiquity has reduced their effectiveness. Rather like the found footage genre, there are still effective stories to be told, but you have to search for them.I enjoyed '13 Eerie' a lot. Although it is all played straight, I suspect the effects planners had a great deal of fun conjuring up the imaginative ways in which people/zombies are impaled, stabbed, mangled and injured. The results are joyfully convincing. The ending is especially amusing – when the credits come crashing in, it's hard not to laugh out loud. Intentional horror is rare in these kind of films, and it works very well here.The zombie creatures are very detailed and suitably gruesome, but their torso/body-suits occasionally let them down, betraying a certain bulkiness or fold in the fabric. But they are a force to be reckoned with – they run, snarl and hiss, indicating their infection has given them a certain primal ferocity. On a personal note, I have watched a lot of horror films recently that have struck me as banal and formulaic and it made me wonder if I was becoming over-familiar, or tired of the genre. Luckily for me, an enjoyable experience like '13 Eerie' has restored my faith and enthusiasm.

one-nine-eighty Lowell Dean directs this 2013 flat horror film which finds itself somewhere between average and so-so. 6 undergraduate forensic investigator CSI wannabe's (including Katherine "Ginger Snaps" Isabelle, Brendan Fehr, Brenda Fletcher) are out in the field (on a deserted island) learning from real life (but still staged) situations, their seemingly always angry professor/ coach/ mentor has set up 3 dead bodies which he sourced from a morgue and placed them in random situations for the students to investigate. Things go wrong when more bodies are found close by and soon enough zombies begin attacking the group who have to run and fight for survival. The zombies looked cheap, make up and effects were equally cheap, and I was angered at times by the lack of care taken in the delivery both in the horror element and the investigation element. I guess one saving grace is that instead of using CGI which would be easy the director and crew have stayed old-school and used prosthetics and fake blood. In regards to the CSI stuff - why is it that certain forensic investigation based films/TV shows show a blatant disregard for preserving the crime scene? The young investigators seem not to care about polluting the crime scene with their hair which is never tied back, they randomly touch corpses and areas around the corpses and they disregard what should be lesson 101 for them. Don't get me wrong, I'm not training in the art of crime scene investigation but evidently I know more than the director and cast who put this cliché filled film together. Character development is weak so you never real feel any emotional connection for the stars as they bumble around - for example why is Tomkins (Michael "Stargate SG1" Shanks) so angry all the time? Where did Nick "Lock Stock and Two smoking Barrels" Moran get his American accent from? This film feels like it could be a lot better but unfortunately comes across rushed and aesthetics over substance. 5/10 from me sorry, not the best horror or zombie flick, not the worst either but dull enough that I'll probably have forgotten it in a few days.

David Biron Loved it!! The mutants, or zombies(whatever I don't care) are totally credible-The story isn't that bad at all and the cast is fine! I'm a fan of Jesse Moss, Katie and Fletcher. If you are looking for a fun, entertaining zombie flick, I don't quite get why so many haters(???). This is a low budget Canadian film and the special effects and zombies were better than many Hollywood zombie movies. The music fits perfectly with the dark atmosphere of the film and I had fun watching it! This isn't the best horror film you have seen, yes couple of flaws, but who cares??? I've seen it a couple of times already since it's release and I still enjoy it!

arfdawg-1 Six forensic undergrads embark on a scientific expedition to a remote island that was once used as illegal biological testing grounds for life-term prisoners.This movie is WAYYYY better than some of the reviews suggests.Yes, the undead are sort of cheesie.And yes, it's a flawed film that sometimes borders on totally unbelievable.But's really a decent concept and a lot of it is unexpectedly good.Plus it's got a great surprise ending. Wait for it!I think think this was a solid six.Watch it and judge for yourself!
