Plot |
"When there is no more room in Hell, the dead will walk the Earth". This movie takes zombies to the next level. They are no longer the slow moving lifeless corpses of past movies and once a person is bitten, it's only a matter of seconds before they're turned. Like the original, a handful of survivors take refuge in a mall.

Pros |
You don't have to sit through 30+ minutes of BS and buildup before the action starts, this movie wastes no time. There's a ton of gore and fire power intermixed with some humor. This movie has an interesting mix of characters; some likable and others you can't wait to see die. |
Cons |
Purists are not going to like these new and improved zombies. Ironically, the word zombie is never uttered during this film. The mall cop is quite annoying. |

Recommendation |
If you're in the mood for an action-packed zombie flick with lots of gore and some Olympic class undead, this is for you. The extras are worth checking out; everything from how it's done, a mock-up newscast and the "home movie" made by Andy from his gun shop. |
