But still so bad work with the handheld camera the night vision shots ...
Nah it didnt feel right or good, it just make the viewer feel tired.Acting is bad like every low budget movie,
the plot starts really really well i could make such a good movie, but they ruin it with all these holes that dont make sense...
Especially in the start and in the end where they make the most tragic decisions.
And .. zombies are actually not much like zombies, they are too slow and easy to handle. the only real use of them would be for a rape (like it already happened in the movie). since they were easy to beat, I would use them for that too :)

World of the Dead: The Zombie Diaries 2 just barely surpasses its predecessor, mainly because of the fact that it recognizes that more than walking around and verbally droning about the possibility of other lands being overtaken by zombies is not substantial enough for a feature film. Directors Kevin Gates and Michael Bartlett actually thrown some plot-progression and some events into the sequel to their Dimension Extreme-distributed film to provide for not only some much-needed life in an undead environment but, thankfully, something to reminds us why we're still watching.The horror genre is at such a treacherous time in its life, where studios have realized the go-to for quick cash comes in the form of remakes, sequels, or the constant ubiquity of ideas such as exorcism and the "found footage" method of filming that true fans must not simply "take what they can get" but look under rocks for films of the genre that will satisfy their needs effectively. The Zombie Diaries unfortunately failed to do that, and looking at World of the Dead: The Zombie Diaries 2, it doesn't improve on too much worth noting. However, it takes considerable risks at being more than a throwaway release and dares to at least be occasionally vile and inexplicable which, at this point in the "franchise's" life, is kind of relieving that, unlike its main focus, is still alive and breathing.This time around, the film takes place about three months after the viral outbreak in the first movie began, and has since wiped out almost all of the world's population, leaving its victims as mindless, literal zombies feeding off the reminisce of the human race. One of the largest surviving groups comes in the form of experienced, well-trained soldiers, whom have taken refuge at a military base in the rural lands of Europe. After months of not coming in contact with any survivors other than themselves and spending most of their time warding off persistent zombies, the base receives communication from another, coastal military base that informs of safety and refuge in a nicer part of Europe. Thank goodness because, in a rather unbelievable chain of events, somebody left the gate to the military base wide open and allowed it to be flooded with the undead, so the soldiers need to make a run for it. The film follows the tight-knit group of fighters as they cross Europe's snowy terrain in hopes of starting a new city or state in what looks to be a promising place of comfort and, at the very least, reliable solace from the undead.The film plays like we're watching video of people playing a game of paintball or laser-tag using large areas of land as their massive playgrounds. The most exciting footage is when we see the gang of soldiers stealthily maneuvering through uncertain land and attempting to avoid potential run-ins with zombies. On top of that, writer/co-director Gates fuels the film with some much-needed elements of excitement and peril, such as scenes of gang-rape, scenes of extreme violence, and Holocaust undertones. It's not that we are particularly gleeful that the characters now have the possibility of being raped in their minds, but it's the idea that something is finally occurring in this previously dead-on-arrival franchise that makes the film quietly remarkable.However, the problems with The Zombie Diaries still exist in its sequel, which are the frequently agitating lack of steadiness in the camera, the occasionally bothersome and frequently interchangeable characters, and the fact that some scenes are way too poorly lit, even if the motive behind the film is to evoke suspense and fear. World of the Dead: The Zombie Diaries 2 is far from a good sequel, but as an improvement on its heavily-flawed predecessor, it does rise from the ashes in some regards to create at least a more watchable film than the first which, the more I think about it, should be the tagline for every sequel to a mediocre or downright awful film.Starring: Philip Brodie, Alix Wilton Regan, Rob Oldfield, and Vicky Araico. Directed by: Kevin Gates and Michael Bartlett.

Rape culture film ~ nothing to do with zombies. I expect far more from the UK, firstly. Talk about a director and writers twisted pathos coming out in film! What a freaking waste of film. And the actors, you should all be .ashamed of themselves for doing such a bloody, heinous film! Could you have come up with something other than 20 minutes of taking advantage of a woman and the mentally challenged when the world is coming to an end ? You had to take care of the mighty hard on? You honestly think people want to sit and watch a woman get raped when there are zombies around? What was the point of the film ? What's with the camera man ? Do you know what focus is ? Seriously some of the biggest load of rubbish I have had witness to in years! Get it together people!

This film started out annoying the hell out of me by first showing you this family that's about to get attacked. The annoying part was they were using the camera to purposely pan away from danger and then wham when they panned back to the door. If a zombie is in my house and the only entry point to the room I'm in is the door I'm not gonna turn away especially when I hear it nearby.I still gave this film a second chance, zombies man I can't seem to get enough of them. I thought it was going to be a mockumentary but it just seems like the people are just taping what happens to them. This is your typical run of the mill zombie and it's the end of the world movie, nothing here you haven't seen before think 28 months later.There were a couple of rape scenes (one with a zombie) that weren't necessary at all.
