About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a grim, slow-moving zombie survival trek with a classic feel, closer to Diary of the Dead than Quarantine; Not for you if you need fast action, lots of dialogue, or tidy resolutions.
Pros: strong setting and scenery; classic slow-burn zombies; practical gore effects | Cons: very slow pacing; uneven acting and dialogue; unsatisfying ending
