Zone of the Dead (2009)

I'm bored to death, and I prefer that than finish the movie.

I'm home alone, out of things to do. Movie as a great way to pass time. Seeing I'm very limited on option, I've decided to NOT watch the movie and twiddle my thumb than torture myself with this piece of abomination.

I can understand low budget, could determine the popularity of the movie. But I've watched quite a few VERY low budget movies, and I've actually bear to watch to the end, enjoyed it even. But this movie is so bad, it's so terribad that I couldn't find a hip enough term to describe how horrible this is.

The acting. Honestly, are the actors not chosen before filming? It's as if they were just picked off off the streets and brought them into casting. Their facial expression is totally wrong, out of place, their body language is absolutely...Well, the actors are "derping" almost through out the entire film. Yes, you do need professional training to be some great quality actors/actress. But you do not need such to be good enough to impress, for example*****Minor Spoiler****: the stance on holding a firearm. The protagonist is a 20year CIA agent, yet he does not know how to hold a pistol and flashlight together.

The camera. It shakes so very often on purpose it literally gave me a headache. I do not know what it is trying to achieve by filming the movie on a roller coaster, heck! To exaggerate, even filming on roller coaster is better than this.

The dialog. It is just so horrible that I mentally wanted to rip my hair off. I believe the cast are well over age of 25, yet their dialog sounded more dull, stupid, untrained than a 13years old.

All in all, I know the definition of like and dislike is pure personal opinion. And I myself can accept a large varieties of opinions quite well. But honest to God, I could not comprehend how any sane human being can rate this movie past 4 stars; And 4 stars is a very generous score for this abomination.

Save yourself some time, some bandwidth, some money, some pain. Just go search for a better zombie title.
