an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It was a superb idea, combining vampire and zombie as a new hybrid in the movie. Unfortunately the horror scenes weren't as much as the expected, instead it was more like an action flick. And it wasn't gore enough for a zombie or a vampire movie. Too many gun shots and explosions instead of bite the chunk of flesh and suck the bloods.

If you like Action, If you like Horror, If you like Vampires, If you like Zombies, If you like Vampire Zombies, then you'll like The Dead Undead.If you only enjoy big budget Zombie/Vampire flicks, then this is NOT the movie for you.The Dead Undead is a low budget Horror flick that is surprisingly good (For shooting this movie on a 1 million dollar budget, they did a pretty good job) When I 1st started watching, I wasn't expecting to like it at all but as it went along, it just got better & better.There was a ton of shooting going on with a few explosions which was pretty awesome.I especially enjoyed the individual stories of how the good vampires came to be (Where was the story of Jack?) It was a nice touch & it added to the movie.I really have no complaints.I would hope there would be at least a sequel because of the way it ended but since this movie was made in 2010 & it's now 2017, I don't see it happening.If I can find it on the cheap I wouldn't mind adding it to my DVD collection.If you get a chance to see The Dead Undead, give it a look.You might be surprised

The only part of this movie that actually had me intrigued was that Aries looked like a younger Ron Jeremy. I absolutely LOVE Zombie movies, so I'm used to most of them being cheesy, but they are fun to watch. This movie however...I can't even say they take the (cheese)cake, because I don't think they deserve a slice at all. The actors were horrible. The script was horrible. The predictable teens,swimsuit, and shower scene took out any points for originality. The fact that this was the one and only zombie movie I found myself falling asleep to over and over is horrible. Gunfire blaring out of my speakers almost non-stop and it actually had me yawning? And the flashbacks were like bad Xena reruns. The big grin I had when I found this at Red Box definitely was me jumping the gun. I'd actually like a refund of my 99 cents just on principal, lol.

I think overall the movie was pretty good. Anyone could tell that it was a low budget film because you could tell the gunshots were fake, and some of the graphics were pretty, well, lame. I personally thought the plot made up for the mostly bad acting and the bad graphics. I think they should make a second one detailing where Jack came from, since he "made" everyone else. They should also make a second one with all of them searching for the "sacred place." But keep the same main actors/actresses, Luke Goss, Cameron Goodman, and Vernon Wells. If they do make a second one, I would hope that they would spend a little more money on the graphics and get some better actors/actresses.
