Wonderful character development!

Very well executed

Best movie ever!

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

THE REZORT is a typical cheap and digital zombie movie, perhaps made with a bit more bloodshed than most in this genre. The plot is somewhat novel and involves a group of characters heading off to a remote island (it's one of the Canary Islands according to the on-screen map) where they're allowed to go around and kill zombies for fun. Inevitably the usual outbreak occurs, with the tables turned and our protagonists now themselves becoming hunted by the living dead. I'm a fan of Dougray Scott but he's on autopilot here, mainly struggling with his American accent, and the rest of the cast are worse. There's plenty of action, though, to take your mind off the familiarity of it all.

The entire movie is filled with clichés that will make you puke in your mouth. Then you've got the "twist" that's so obvious and bad it's a joke. How this movie even got made is a joke, talk about wasted money.

If you haven't figured it out "Z" is for zombie in all these misspelled titles. After the first viral zombie outbreak, "Brimstone Protocol" was issued, which were drone strikes...in Star Trek philosophy it is "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the zombie." Two billion people died, and Valerie Wilton (Claire Goose) is now making great profits by turning an island not cleared into a resort hunting ground. People pay outrageous sums to hunt and kill zombies. They have a careful Jurassic Park set-up. It is more like Deer Camp where "sportsmen" rest in a tree stand while shooting animals with high powered rifles in a baited field.Melanie (Jessica De Gouw) has issues dealing with what happened. So in order to deal with killing 2 billion people (she also lost her father) it is recommended she go kill a few undead herself...like taking more poison to cure the effects of poisoning. We watch Sadie (Elen Rhys) download a virus into the Rezorts computer (My spell check is going crazy). We already know the outcome as the Brimstone Protocol was issued for the island. This whole story is a flashback. The only question is will our final girl escape, how, and will anyone else survive? There is also a slight twist.I liked the film and the character Archer (Dougray Scott) which could have used a high dollar tough guy star. Melanie, our main character was by design to be slightly mousy. She projected a protagonist that was bland. I liked the original idea, decently executed. Valerie Wilton needed to be a more of a flamboyant showman. The island was supposed to located about where the Azores would be, but was filmed in the Philippines.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

The Rezort is much better than some people here are giving it credit for, and I think at least some of the backlash is just a manifestation of zombie oversaturation.Putting that aside, what we have is a tense British horror film with some great cinematography, very solid production values, and a premise that hasn't been done before in the genre -- imagine Jurassic Park with zombies instead of dinosaurs.The Rezort exists on a tropical island -- after humanity finally eradicated the undead, at the cost of 2 billion lives, people discovered the island had also been overrun and was crawling with zombies. Instead of bombing the island, they put up fences, created trails, and built a first-class resort for people who want to go on "safari" hunting the undead.That sounds like the story can go only two ways -- either awesome or cheesy. But the script goes a good job of showing us why each of the characters went to the resort, and what they hope to accomplish there. For Mel, the main character, it's a way of dealing with the PTSD from the earlier zombie outbreak and the horrors she endured, like watching her own father turn. She's accompanied by her supportive boyfriend, Lewis.The group also includes a pair of teenage gamers, Jack and Alfie, who think the island is going to be one big FPS game; Sadie, an attractive Welsh woman who's visiting on her own; Archer, a sharpshooter who seems to enjoy it when things go wrong; and Nevins, the park-employed guide who takes the visitors out onto the island in a Jeep.The movie establishes early on that this is an expensive, luxurious place. Upon arriving at the island's dock, guests are offered champagne as they're driven to the palatial main resort. Once there, they're given shooting lessons, offered their choice of firearms, and feted in a first-night party by the resort's pool, with the park's creator wishing them good luck on the hunt.Needless to say, things don't go as planned and the park's billion-dollar security system is compromised, disabling active defenses and allowing the undead to breach the island's fences and the resort itself.I'll leave the synopsis there to avoid spoilers, but it's worth pointing out that The Rezort is tight from start to finish, with solid performances and attention to detail. Guns run out of ammo, people act the way they'd act in a crisis. The story unfolds realistically, which isn't often true of other zombie films and TV shows.Overall this is a good addition to the horror and zombie genres.
