LOL a couple of the replies. I would put it in the "I didn't like it too much" genre. It had one good scene for me that I thought was disturbingly believable (guess which one it was?) but the rest of it I couldn't believe. That is to say, in my case, the movie did not suspend my DISbelief. Well it was a bad night that night. I watched it with two other friends and we kept picking it apart until finally we were predicting the next thing that would happen and the next; and finally we were laughing at everything that happened.
But part of the reason THIS happened was that I had heard all the stuff people were saying about it...how it was the scariest zombie movie or whatever. (Dead Zombies, Live Zombies, I'll ignore the distinction here.) So I was frankly intimidated and not anxious to see the film because, well, scary films scare me. Suffice it to say that when we started watching the film and the attacks started occurring, I sat back and said, "This isn't scary! I've seen really serious zombie movies, and this is like a piece of delicious toast with zombie marmalade on it. The critics are wimps if they were scared by THIS!"
However!! a lot of REALLY smart, wonderful people like this movie, so I think they're tuning into something that I wasn't getting. So it's not like I'm trying to disrespect the folks who like it. However, when I saw the " 'suck' genre" suggested, I did laugh, and it was a REAL laugh, not one of those fake ones!
