7/10
Decent Indie Flick....with HORRIBLE editing!

Really this movie wasn't nearly as bad as some of the reviewers are saying...(It's not as bad as, let's say, Birdemic or something like that) It's a pandemic type movie but really more of an atmospheric thriller that just uses as pandemic as the background.

My main issue with the movie was the editing - it was so poor and left a lot of things scratching your head. As an example, in one scene one of the main characters is kidnapped while one sleeps. It literally cuts from that to the sleeping character going out looking for her. It doesn't show him waking up, or hearing something that wakes him up, or him realizing what had happened and freaking out.

There were a lot of similar gaps that unfortunately made the movie hard to understand in some parts. I'm assuming the director wants the audience to simply infer certain things about the plot and tried to use flashbacks to parlay important pieces of information regarding the back story, but it was done too choppily and poorly for that to work.

However, overall it is still a decent movie. I love horror flms but the zombie genre has pretty much died out for me, and I appreciated that this was a pandemic style movie that really took it in its own direction.

It's probably really worth a 6/10, but I felt bad looking at some of the other poor reviews so I gave it a 7/
