This is another basic zombie movie that follows the usual pattern of a viral epidemic which breaks out in a major city. In this case, Berlin. It's rather short (approximately 59 minutes) which I think is a negative factor because, even though it was a low-budget film, it was pretty enjoyable and I would have liked to have seen a bit more of it. The acting was decent and the storyline was about as realistic as any movie of this type could be. I also liked the fact that it introduced two new ideas which I thought have merit and are worth mentioning. First, the use of bright flashes of light which cause the zombies to temporarily retreat was quite interesting. Likewise, the use of sedatives to slow down the virus in an infected person was also very original. In summation, for such a low-budget film this was surprisingly good. Again though, I believe it would have been better if it were 20 to 30 minutes longer. Hopefully a sequel is in the works.
