Review of Wither

Wither (2012)
4/10
Wither: Bit of a drag
16 August 2017
This Swedish zombie film "Borrows" a lot from several horror classics including The Evil Dead (1981) Despite this it finds its own identity and actually has a fairly decent premise behind it.

The zombies look interesting and stand out from the average, the movie has a budget behind it and the performances aren't entirely terrible. So why the low rating?

The problem with Wither is it simply isn't very well made. Despite a lot of action the movie is oddly boring, the sequences are highly uninspired and the subject matter seems wasted in the hands of someone who didn't know how to utilise it.

Wither isn't bad, it's just a drag. A slow, unexciting, unoriginal drag.

You know what this undead vs young people in a cabin in the woods needed? Bruce Lorne Campbell!!!

+ The concept + The creature effects - The pace - The action sequences
