I guess Nicholas Cage was busy

This movie is so bad Nick Cage didn't bother signing up for it! The best part of this movie was the ending, as in, it's over and I can now attempt to deal with the two hours I'll never get back.

Arnold as a Midwest farmer is as believable as Arnold as a Midwest farmer. Someone thought they could get the big man to show his acting range........fail. This movie is NOT scary for starters. If you're going to see a horror flick this ain't it. It's a bad drama with limited zombies and virtually no action. That being said I know, I know, it wasn't supposed to be an action movie. BUT, one would believe that a film that is about a zombie virus, with zombies, and Arnold would have something more than father and daughter moments.

So this is a drama. A pure drama genre movie meant to show the love of a father (Arnold) as he stands by his zombie infected eldest child (Abigail Breslin). It's depressing, slow, and the actors are unbelievable in each of their roles....with the exception of Abigail Breslin. Poor child deserved a better script to work with.

So if you're going to watch this be prepared to take a long nap.
