Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "The Lost Tape: Andy's Terrifying Last Days Revealed" is a 16-minute live action short from 2004 and this one's closely connected to the popular "Dawn of the Dead" as we find out a bit more about one of the minor characters from one of Zack Snyder's better received films. It's all about the found footage component here, so the camera is static being put up by the title character, which means no great camera work, but still a convincing film overall. And that is pretty much 100% thanks to lead actor Bruce Bohne who carries this convincingly as a one-man show from start to finish. The longer it went, the more enjoyable it gets. The situational comedy about the character of Andy lets you forget at times how much of a tragic story this little film actually is. I guess we can be lucky that we don't have to live during the same scenario like Andy overall, regardless of broken our own world is. But takes it too far perhaps. Back to this one here: From what I saw, I'd probably also watch a full feature film about the character. The lead performance was top-notch and the contrast between the scenes in the past and in the now was handled pretty well. Overall, this short film is easy to enjoy, even if you haven't seen the big blockbuster movie from which this is a little spin-off like in my case. The title spoiler isn't a problem either as it is much more about the "how" and "why" than about the "if". I give it a thumbs-up and recommend checking it out.
bootderek Bruce Bohne was the perfect choice to play the gun salesman named Andy, who is pretty much alone in his gun shop fending off the zombies overwhelming the world in the film. This bit of footage is a pretty convincing way of showing how he struggles to survive and retain his sanity. I found it pretty funny that the only other thing he could really talk to was his fish. This was a good extra and I still enjoy watching it. I didn't give it a perfect 10 because of the fact that he drinks and swears. But whatever. This was still pretty good and I can't wait for a sequel to the actual film.9/10
SiNyLiny "SPOILER" When you watch the DVD you meet Andy who is alone on a the roof of his gun shop several blocks away from the Mall where the other survivors are staying. You get to know Andy through his relationship with Ken.The DVD extra fills out Andys character a little more.You see he was a family man, failing marriage, a father who loved his daughter and seemed like an all around nice guy who was all alone during the "end of the world".I thought Bruce Bohne did a good job and enjoyed the extra footage.
Quicksand ALL the extra "films" on the DVD for "Dawn of the Dead" are incredibly lame, with horrible production values and questionable acting. This one is the more unwatchable of the two (if such a thing is possible), because it points a camera at a not-particularly-talented actor and has him improv for like 40 minutes.It's not a comedy, it's not a drama, in fact it's not anything at all, it just happens to have the same actor who played a (non-speaking) role in the film. Is that supposed to entice me to watch? Ed Wood made better "films" than this one. This was just someone's bored afternoon that they tried to pass as a DVD extra so they could charge an extra ten bucks. Don't fall for it.Watch the movie, not the extras. Awful... and what's worse, boring. The backstory it purports to "explain" isn't even consistent with the movie. Or zombie lore. Or technology, since he uses a VHS tape in 2005.
