2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Randall-Flagg01 What a great zombie movie (actually a 5 part series). Pros: gorecharacters you care aboutgreat overall ideatensiongood jump scaresCons: fast zombies, but hey, they work herethe Patrick character is way over the top. I get that's what they were going for but I would have shot the bastard.

devonmmunn The reason I checked this out was the man who created it (Charlie Brooker) also created Black Mirror, an anthology series I really enjoy, and to be honest, I was kinda disappointed. Now I isn't the worst series I've ever seen, it's actually pretty decent (the I episode being Episode 2) I didn't care about the majority of the characters, the only one I remotely cared about was Kelly. The first episode spent a little too much time on the reality show, to the point where I felt like it was bogged down by it, now while there were a couple sequences that were thrilling, but one of the worst things of the series is whenever there's an action scene (or any intense scenes there is) the camera shakes so much that I'm more distracted than in the edge of my seat (there was even shaky cam when a zombie was just simply in a pool) and the characters didn't receive much development. So overall, if you're looking for a fun, entertaining zombie series, I would say give it a go, but don't expect too much

kosmasp Or how about "Big Dead Brother is eating you"? There are quite a few lines you can come up with, with a premise like that. And for a TV show it is pretty graphic in its depiction of violence and blood (not for the squeamish then). The premise is more than nice, actually intriguing. The fact the undead are running might put you off (depending on your liking, I do like the slow ones myself), but give it a try, it's not that long (just over 2 hours).While effects and make-up are great, you couldn't do it without the acting talent. Andy Nyman is on great form as the main "human" villain in this piece. Of course, as he also states in interviews in the bonus material, his character doesn't see himself as the bad guy. And some might like him the best. He definitely stirs things up. Decent and good effort then.

Charles Herold (cherold) A number of reviewers here have described this as satirical, but it's really not. Yes, the premise as written - reality TV show is interrupted by zombie apocalypse - certainly sounds satirical, but once the zombies show up there are only rare occasions where the Big Brother theme comes up.The first half hour of the show is all set up, detailing the pre- destroyed lives of the protagonists. As with most horror movies, this prologue is pretty tedious; almost as tedious as actually watching an episode of Big Brother.Once the zombies show up though, the Big Brother set is just a place for a handful of survivors. The zombies themselves are very scary, fast-running, ravenous creatures who eat not brains but everything. The movie is effectively creepy and scary.The movie can also be pretty annoying. The worst thing is the character of the director. If this show is going to be called satire, the director is probably where the satire lies; he escapes the zombies by doing something so remarkably despicable that he might as well hold a sign over his head that says "bad guy." But satire or not, he is annoying, particularly towards the end, where he is featured in two of the grossest scenes in the series.Dead Set can get very gory, and since I don't like gore, I sometimes had to look away, particularly towards the end. Some of the gore seemed reasonable considering the subject matter, but other times it felt like someone just said, "ooh,wouldn't it be cool to really gross people out?"There are no real surprises in the story, which follows a typical zombie-movie path. The show is considerably less imaginative than the first season of Walking Dead, and the Big Brother premise seems forced and gimmicky. But the series is effective and fast paced, and overall I enjoyed it.
