Review of Severed

Severed (2005)
7/10
Not bad
29 September 2006
What makes this movie good is the fact that it's well done on a low budget. In this film we find out WHY there are dead folks whom crave living flesh. These zombies are the, Romero, slow moving breed filmed like the fast paced zombies of the "DoD" 2004 (blurred and jerky).

As for the plot, they give you a reason as to why things go the way they do. Much like in "28 Days" you get to watch environmentalists get eaten. Always fun watching nuts like that get what they deserve. Sure the gore isn't in your face like a lot of movies tend to over do (I guess when you have no story to tell you need to try and make people sick).

The acting is WAAAAAAAY better than you will find in movies like Dead Alive. They pull it off. Which is all you should really expect in a horror movie.

Another good thing is the length of the film, 136 min. Good pace.

If you are a fan of the Romero zombie stuff rather than the "ZOMBIE 5" junk, check it out. I will add SEVERED to my zombie collection. Well done, or should I say RARE done.;)
