Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away
StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Leofwine_draca ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE is The Asylum's stab at the zombie genre and an obvious homage/cash-in on the success of THE WALKING DEAD. It sees a disparate group of characters trekking across a post-apocalypse America, searching for salvation and risking their lives in a constant running battle with the undead.The film is hindered by a cast of rather poor actors and some very dodgy CGI effects, but in other respects it's surprisingly engaging. There's no denying that Nick Lyon is a poor director, or that the lead young actors are rather wooden, but screenwriter Craig Engler would go on to create the surprisingly entertaining TV series Z NATION and seeds of that show's success are visible here, not least in a solid pacing and plenty of low rent zombie action.Cast-wise, we're limited to an almost forgotten Ving Rhames in support (perhaps making up for his appearance in the execrable DAY OF THE DEAD remake) and a sighting of Lesley-Ann Brandt, who once propped up TV'S SPARTACUS. The most memorable thing about this film is the unexpected climax, and I can't work out whether it was genius or awful; a bit of both, I suspect. Certainly it's something you won't expect or have seen before in this sub-genre. Treat ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE as a TV movie precursor to Z NATION and you might just enjoy it a little, like I did.
Marc Davis Why? Why why why do I waste my time on SyFy films? We are expected to believe in comical to horrible special effects. Acting? Horrible. Editing? Horrible. Storyline/Plot? Passable. I had trouble coming up with 10 lines for this review because there is absolutely nothing worth writing about.Ving Rhames is the headliner in this mess of a film. I guess times are hard.Don't waste your time. It's not worth the 1 star.
devastationyay -If your going to make a zombie movie, at least put some stock into your special effects and makeup teams. If the film is going to have a generic plot with wooden acting, at least give us some good eye candy instead of the horrible CGI crap that is rampant in this movie.-I see a lot of people comparing this to the Walking Dead, and while I will agree this movie does have a guy good at archery and the "coincidental" name drop of that guy "Kirkman", comparing this mess to the Walking Dead is a travesty and just flat out dumb. Read the comics and you will realize how creating a character works, and it translates well to the show.-The Walking Dead has very complex character development, it is very believable of how people would react and change in that kind of crazy situation. This movie doesn't even have a fraction of that. The characters are blocky and don't seem to be affected by events that should shatter them.-Ramona and Billy are some of the most irritating characters maybe ever.-Too much CGI, bad CGI.-I love the zombie genre so I figured why not, I wish i hadnt.STOP COMPARING THIS TO THE WALKING DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
flipsidemaster i came into this movie with extremely low expectations. this movie isn't that bad compared to the awful stuff syfy usually puts out. this movie plays out just like a video game, moving from safe house to safe house. the characters are all video game characters: the big black guy with a sledge hammer, the ethnic girl with the katana, the leader with a bat and a gun, the punk girl with the spiky hair rocking a bow and arrow. they have to fight waves of zombies and there is a mini-boss that they must find a chainsaw to defeat and then a final boss to beat the game. make up was good in the beginning but by the end it was people in masks. overall not bad.
