SyFy, you had me a Zombie. Adding the Apocalypse was just icing on the cake. I like zombie movies and I know a lot of them tend to be somewhat "bad" movies. I was surprised with this one though. I was expecting a train wreck because some of the SyFy movies are (yet I watch them - ummmm...). Anyway, it was better than I thought.
The directing choices (or acting choices) when the characters were discussing their past didn't fit well with me. It seemed too 'mushy'. I would think, after going through all they had, that by the time they were discussing it, they would have been more matter of fact about things, not so hesitant and retrospective.
All in all, it was a decent Zombie movie. It wasn't Zombieland, but it was worth watching if you like Zombie flicks.

Yes, this was on SyFy earlier today. What can I say? It entertained me. It had the qualities I look for in horror movies - the 7 teens on their way to a party, the weird town they get stuck in, the crazy town people, and it even had a midget!
The blood and gore were appropriate and not as bad as I was expecting. It was low budget, and it was predictable, but it was a better viewing experience than I expected.
I have to admit that I am really into the horror genre right now. Maybe it is because it is October and Halloween is approaching. Or maybe I'm about to go psycho - ya never know these days! (insert maniacal laughter here).
Favorite Scene: When the kids enter the freak town of Wormwood.
