This is certainly not as bad as I thought it was going to be. This is a film that's fun to watch just so you can make fun of it. It's loaded with cheesy moments, but I really enjoyed the shootout scenes between the survivors and zombies. The actors were bad except for maybe two or three. The story has absolutely nothing to do with the game outside of the name, a Sega logo, and a guy whose last name is Curien. It's a stupid, campy, B-movie adventure that gave me enough okay entertainment. I wouldn't recommend it to most people, but I found it to be a fun, campy zombie adventure.

Honestley. I have no idea why would anybody would want to see this movie. To me, it makes little sense and I'm still trying to figure out why did the happy campers turned into zombies. Sure, the gamelpay clips looked (kind of) cool, but even that can't save this crappy film. Bad indeed.

an asian wearing a one-piece american flag swimsuit jumps(in slo-mo) 10 feet in the air, while a zombie frontflips, throwing an axe, while the asian fires a shotgun shell 50 feet away at said zombie. the axe misses, but the shell hit the zombie dead on in the head... CRAYZAY!!!!

Uwe Boll got paid to spin the camera in a circle. I passed kidney stones with more enjoyment. I think I am going to go watch the grass grow. If Boll wants to fight everyone who hates his movies he'll have to Fight the World. After seeing Uwe Boll number three you should expect worse every time. Never hire him to direct again.

You people are ridiculous. I can't believe you are taking the time to analyze this movie as if it were actually supposed to be a scary survival horror movie. Yea it was bad, it was an awful movie, but it was funnier than most of the comedies pumped out nowadays. I only watched the last hour and I laughed constantly. You really could not have expected a serious horror movie based on... a video game.

i hated this movie from beginning to end. the only thing i found hilarious about it was before they met that cop on the cliff with all the guns the teens were all helpless nd jus trying to stay alive but as soon as they pick up a rifle and some grenades they learn kung fu nd suddenly decide to fight.

Man, this movie was the worst i've ever seen. It wasn't even the tiniest bit scary. Whole movie was just shooting zombies and blowing them up with grenades and then shooting them some more. Don't waste your time here or you will regret it.
