I will admit that this is not the best zombie film ever made. However, it has enough good qualities to offset most of the faults. While the acting and special effects are clearly below average, this film does have a decent plot, good action and the director (Nick Lyon) manages to keep the tension throughout the movie. It also introduces some new elements to the zombie repertory by presenting both slow and fast zombies. The fast type being more recently infected. Another new element is that the zombies are slowly evolving by adopting basic tactics. Both of these new qualities actually make sense and enhances the zombie legacy for possible future use. I also liked the presence of Ving Rhames ("Henry") who always seems to add an intangible quality to these kind of films. Likewise, the inclusion of a few attractive females like Lesley-Ann Brandt ("Cassie"), Lylan Bowden ("Myrah") and Anya Monzikova ("Sara") certainly didn't hurt the movie in any way. In short, while this may not be a "great" zombie film it is probably good enough for most zombie enthusiasts to add to their collection.
