...this brainless action/horror product apparently gave a number of solid B-movie actors the opportunity to tour beautiful Sofia, Hungary. Oh, and make a shaky-cam movie. The results are mixed, and mostly forgettable, despite a veneer of $9.5mil in production quality. The gimmick is a reality show in the near future after an 85% fatal zombie apocalypse. Manhattan is a quarantine zone into which a camera- embedded SWAT team is inserted in search of some nefarious secret project. The story borrows tropes from across the spectrum, mashing them together into nothing special. The acting is okay, the pace is mostly good, but the plotting and dialog are routine and disengaging. This is video game level material. Fine entertainment for the indiscriminate zombie junkie, but otherwise pure make work.
