About
You may enjoy this if you like zombie horror with a found-footage, “keep filming” hook and occasional gnarly set pieces, similar in spirit to The Crazies or The Dead; Not for you if shaky POV and frustrating character choices annoy you.
Pros: fresh found-footage angle; some suspenseful moments; memorable gory kills | Cons: uneven acting; slow, directionless stretch; blunt social commentary
