5/10
Asylum production, not good, not awful

Watch this movie when you're drunk and you won't be disappointed... a lot.

I watched a lot of Asylum movies and they all have a big problem: Bad CGI.

This movie is no different. Storyline is OK, acting is OK, just the CGI and inaccuracies are a problem.

To begin with the CGI has the design of a 90's video game. If you can't afford decent CGI, than please don't let the plot depend on it. The mutated tigers we're just awful.

The next thing are the inaccuracies. Again, if you watch this when you're drunk, you probably won't notice it.

Ving Rhames and his partner manage to salvage a 50 Cal machine gun, they put it in a shopping cart. Of course they shot the hell out of a group zombies. Problem: I can't imagine that there's no recoil from such a big gun, but still the cart doesn't move an inch. Also when they're firing you don't see shells coming out of the gun and the ammo belt doesn't move so in fact there aren't going any bullets in the gun...

There's a point where they see the hideout of a sniper, which is dead. They kill the zombie sniper but leave a big sniper gun WITH bullets at the hideout?! I mean, they're fighting with crowbars, sledgehammers and machetes, leaving a big gun is just retarded...

The last thing which annoys me is the fact that there is no clear way of killing a zombie. Sometimes a head shot doesn't kill a zombie, sometimes it does, slitting his throat sometimes kills, sometimes even a body shot kills it. We all know that a head shot or chopping his head of is the only way to kill a zombie...

This could be a far more better movie if they got their facts straight and invested just a little more in their CGI...
