Dave and Gary head out early in the morning for a day of shooting cans and drinking beer in the country. When they try to get home that night, they find the city in gridlock as a zombie outbreak has overrun the town.
While Gary's wife and son are waiting for his return, there is a knock at the door. The police are advising everyone to lock all their doors and windows, and stay inside. As soon as the policeman steps off the porch, he is set upon by zombies. Oddly enough this prompts Gary's wife to decide to go outside, get in the car and leave. Geez lady, at least wait until the zombies have wandered off.
Eventually she meets up with Dave and Gary at a friends house which is isolated and in the middle of nowhere. As time passes, they wonder if the zombies are still out there as they haven't seen or heard anyone in a long time. Hmmm, did the zombies learn how to drive? Because you can hear traffic in the background.
The main problem with this film is that it's an amateur production. There is lots of padding, bad sound, bad pacing, uninspiring camera work, and not much happens during the movie. The zombies are mostly absent from the film, and when they do appear they seem to have white face paint on. Also if it was the zombie apocalypse, wouldn't you at least keep your porch door shut and locked, just in case?
I give anyone credit who can actually get a movie filmed, edited, and completed. But at the same time, just because I admire the dedication and effort that went into it, that doesn't mean it's good.
As a side note, while I was watching it I wrote down the words horrible and slow. But I honestly can't remember whether I was referring to the zombies or the movie.
