Ok, so I was just gonna watch the movie, keep my thoughts to myself and get on with my life... until I saw some pretty outlandish reviews. I thought, "Those poor zombie-lovin' folks are gonna fall right into that trap of thinking this is a great movie unless someone stops them!" Someone's gotta set the record straight."The Rising Dead" is your basic low-budget zombie flick and like so many others, falls prey to the same elements, over and over again. The shaky acting, the thin, drawn-out script, etc. "Fast paced action"? It's about as fast-paced as a lullaby. I will be honest, the movie does boast an attractive cast, and I will give them points for their attempt at special effects. Also, filming in the lush tropical jungle was nice but don't be deceived. "The Rising Dead" probably won't make any Top 10 Lists.
