From brilliant to mediocre.

Rating: 6/10 (29 July 2002)

It started of like a rocket, moved along brilliantly for about 45 minutes, and then slided back into mediocrity.
I had seen previews of the movie and I had a hard time convincing myself to visit the theatre when it was finally released. Fair is fair, I have to admit that I left the movies with a reasonably good feeling. The first part of the film was catching and it was well on its way to become my all time favourite horror movie. Then it sort of went over the top. In trying to keep the attention of the audience they stretched the zombie action for to long and the climax with the mutated monster was greatly over-done. The last part of the movie and the average acting performances of the main characters will probably keep me from buying the DVD.
I would have liked a bit more suspense and imaginative horror. However the die hard horror fan will probably have a very very good time.
