Horror? Oh yes...

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2007)

First thing - this is NOT a zombie film. Sorry to be pedantic, but zombies are a totally different premise. The people in this are DISEASED, not UNDEAD.
Anyway, the review. It has been a very long time since I came out of a horror film and felt horrified. Yes, I know there are plot holes and continuity errors and the like, but really, if you're watching a film like this with that agenda, you're gonna find a problem.
From the opening scene, the tension built and never let up. The main protagonists were put in an uncompromising situation from the start and when it seemed that it couldn't get any worse, guess what...
Now I know there will be many who disagree with this, but let me qualify my statement. In order for you to feel this way, you have to be willing to suspend your disbelief (something that any movie fan should be au fait with) and try and put yourself in the same position as any of the characters. The true horror comes from being able to appreciate what is happening WITHIN the story that has been laid out for you.
I don't want to say anything about the actual story, because 1) enough people have already and 2) this is an experience. Any fans of intelligent horror should see this film. Simple. As. That.
