The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

More low budget zombie films from a vastly overcrowded market, this one kinds of falls in the middle due to not having much in the way of originality, but does kind of entertain in a way, for the most part.Once again, you've got a zombie uprising and a couple searching for their missing daughter. Things go well for the most part until...sigh...everyone ends up trapped in a building, which is something that's been done since Night of the Living Dead.At the point we end up in conflict/drama land, except the acting here is a bit dodgy, which adds to the entertainment. It's not a bad film, more of a kind of blah film. Some not bad zombie effects and grim ending, but don't expect anything new here.

Well I watched this film a few years ago but my version of the DVD was called Armageddon of the dead. Although the film has terrible writing and acting, me and my friends still enjoyed watching it as it falls into the it's so bad it's good category. The characters in the film make awful decision and the special are horrendous so the film is so much fun to mock especially with a group of friends. So even though the film is terrible you can still have a fun and enjoyable time watching it. The best time to watch this film so that you get the most out of it is late at night drunk, then the film will seem brilliant. But if you watch it sober with a bunch of film fanatics then you will have a awful time.

For the love of humanity, all copies of this movie need to be destroyed. Do not be tempted to watch it, you will be sorry. 40 years of watching films and I have finally found the worst film on the planet.There is no budget spent,there is no plot, there are no actors and there are not even any zombies in it, just people covered in watered down pink paint. Anyone involved in the making of this ham fest should be ashamed of themselves even the person who sold it to you should be ashamed.The best thing about it was the end credits because I just couldn't wait until they arrived. This has been a public service announcement.

...then ever watch Risen again.I'm fairly unbiased when it comes to zombie flicks. I mean, I even own the Zombie King series so that says quite a bit. But disappointment can't even begin to explain the dirty feeling that Risen left in my brainpan.Plot synopsis? Sure! Outbreak occurs, family loses child, must find child. I hope they didn't pay their writer.Acting? Nah, hope they didn't pay their actors either.Special effects? Whoa, also no; very much on par with Day of the Dead: Contagion in that everything just looks like fake blood, and a point that would seem so crucial to a zombie movie was missed entirely: the zombies don't look dead at all.I drove a long way to Chicago, as I do every year, to see this and a few other flicks. Before driving back next year I'll be sure to check IMDb and ensure that no-one from Risen was involved with any of the films so I know to save myself a 10 hour drive.
