once again and much like review for the signal and i be completely baffle by the rave review this film have receive . please do not make the same mistake i do and be draw in by the eye catching ( and very misleading ) cover art . none of it take place at any point in the film . 80 minute film with zombie in title feature what must be all of 10 minute screen time of zombie altogether . the rest be just mindless drive or run or and pointless and awkward dialogue . i be a huge zombie movie fan but i never think i would despise a film so much a to go out of my way to urge people not to watch it . the zombie diaries prove me wrong . it be dreadful . the film focus on a few different group of idiot who be scatter around the british countryside just a some kind of unexplained virus hit all major city . all group appear to have absolutely no common sense . this first become apparent when the first group of urvivors encounter a zombie in a farmhouse they be suppose to be stay in . rather than fight off one zombie in a relatively secure house and they run blindly into a dark forest where they encounter even more undead . then and in complete darkness and in the middle of a forest where they have encounter zombie and they decide to stop and make a fire . this kind of clown shoe logic ripple through the rest of the film . we cut to a completely different group of survivor look for supply in an abandoned town . this and many more overlong scene involve this group have absolutely no relevance to the rest of the film . the zombie diary be basically make up of scene that defy common sense in order to try and drum up tension . cue countless shot of people walk round darken corridor and barn and stairway and wood etc with only the camera light guide the way . the first time this be do it be quite suspenseful by the 5th time it happen and all suspense be lose and you be simply left watch a tactless idiot take 10 minute to walk down a hallway and open a door . cut to yet another completely different group of survivor . they have secure a farmhouse and gun and yet there be countless scene where and in pitch darkness and everyone simply stand on the field outside the house blindly fire at zombie amble towards them . once they drag this out for another fifteen minute or so and a noise be hear from inside a darkened barn ( surprise and surprise ) and cue yet another drag out let investigate with just the camera light to guide u scene . the final chapter try to make a statement about u be the real monster and not the zombie by then i would grow so bored that i applaud the death of the remain survivor and curse the god that this moment have not arrive sooner .
