Humans Versus Zombies



YOU DON'T TAKE A SANDWICH TO THE BEACH
The film starts out with a zombie virus infection breach then goes headlong into a world infestation. There is a 2 weeks interval between the events. The comic book that comes with the DVD goes into more detail, but really doesn't add anything to the explanation which was given later in the film, one which I really appreciated as it pretended to have some basis in fact. The action takes place on a college campus where students engage in a game called "Humans vs. Zombies." These students believe they are zombie experts and then the apocalypse happens (Rev. 20:13).

Zombie movies are pretty much the same. Find a safe haven, purge zombies. It is the characters that separate great zombie films from pack. I liked the zombies eating people in front of the "Humanities" building and the characters in this film:

Tommi (Dora Madison Burge): She has a gamer web site and is a hot cyber chick all the guys want, especially James. She is pretty, smart, savvy, and can make quick...

I don't think was bad as a lot of people wrote if you think about it.
It's the closest to how it would really start to sink in to people that there was something even going on. It didn't have the best effects but when your running for your life, and just trying to get by to survive. Well anyway I enjoyed it.

A classical take on the new Zombie craze!
As a self proclaimed horror flick aficionado who wants to be as brief as possible, I will say this:

Humans vs Zombies is an independent film that was written and directed by people who "get it". This was a very good story line, great filming, good acting, and good special effects. If you like the classic zombie movies from "back in the day" but want a more modern feel to it then this is the movie for you.

I loved the character dynamics, and interactions. I also liked the idiosyncratic mannerisms displayed by each actor. In total this movie was worth the 1.5 hours and the 3.99 to watch instantly on Amazon. I am so pleased by this film that I will definitely look into other movies directed by Brian T. Jaynes. The ending was exactly what this film needed to. Great job guys!
