This classic zombie movie doesn't hold back on the gore. I'm not a huge fan of the kind of horror that simply seeks to gross me out. While there are moments of gratuitous guts and gore, this movie offers much more. It reminded me of The Walking Dead series in the way that it focuses mostly on the drama between the surviving people. This movie puts us inside an underground bunker with this small group of survivors who are seemingly safe in their little fortress. The problem they run into is that the real monsters are the living people inside the bunker. The interactions between them are extremely tense. The suspense is real as we watch and wait for the moment when it all falls apart for these survivors. With the exception of the zombies, the acting is really good.
