saw this one over at the local electronics store for $ 10 . 99 with a recommendation on the front that it be a worthy addition to any gorehound dvd shelf by rue morgue . so i figure i couldn not go wrong on this one . i shoulda put it back on the shelf and invest in that 6 dvd lone wolf and cub collection instead . where do i start . ok and the plot . well and the plot isn not much of a plot . it in a world where zombie be overunning society and our story center around a group of police like soldier call the zombie squad . theyre guard a facility where some scientist be work on a cure for the epidemic . meanwhile in another part of town a cult run by a guy wear old people sunglass and you know those huge black one and be do human sacrifice and worship the zombie epidemic mainly because the cult leader son be turn into one . the cultist be cause problem with the zombie squad and scientist over philosophical difference and that where trouble begin . so and that the story really . the major character be name after famous horror director like raimi and romero and carpenter and etc . ( side note represent the box claim that this film be make with the help of a legendary hollywood director . this be mislead . it turn out that sam raimi of evil dead fame merely help finance this pile of dung . ) the act range from competent to go back to the drama club . please . i mean some of these performance be just god awful bad and it apparent why when you look through the dvd extra . there an audition section on there where they show that everyone in the movie be just walk on whose only requirement in the audition be to tell an interesting story about themselves and scream . no act out any dialogue or anything . well and you get what you get i guess . the special effect be pretty cool in some part of the flick and lame in others . i have read some review that say the effect be awesome . believe me and they be not . theyre not even really that gory except for a shot here and there . factor in that this film be shoot in super 8 and a filming format not even up to stuff with an average $ 300 video camera you can get today and and you get the picture . the box claim that this film be digitally remastered . i hate to break it to the film maker but transfer the original super 8 to dvd do not constitute digital remastering . there also a dolby 5 . 1 soundtrack but it doesn not enhance the experience . i barely notice anything significant come from my rear speaker . the dvd be load with extra but they be pretty boring . one amuse extra be the frightvision 2000 reunion clip . it show some of the original cast member and director talk about how look back on it again they have realize what a wonderful film they make . i guess time really do make you forget . there be maybe 15 or 20 people in the audience listen to them talk one of which be some goth guy whose face say please shoot me now . all in all this one isn not recommended kiddy unless you be into self torture .
