Aside from what i've read here, a bunch of reviews i found on the internet were really positive about this flick, so I decided to seek it out so I'd have something to watch tonight. I just finished it.

I agree with dabruce about the ending and the main character doing a really stupid thing, it was very retarded, and annoyed the hell out of me.

However, it actually appeared to be a pretty well made movie, didn't appear low budget at all, even though it was, and there was some gore in it. The movie really just wasn't entertaining though, every scene and idea in it (except the whole tree sap thing) has been done before in every other zombie flick, especially the second half of the movie which seemed to be mostly a combination of scenes stolen from 28 Days Later and Day of the Dead.

Plus, what action there was, was hard to even get into, cause the director insisted on filming 80% of the movie with that whole shaky camera B.S. that is way overdone now.

So yeah, basically a waste of time, although not completely as bad as I thought it would be.
