I'm giving this movie ten out of ten not because I think it's the best film ever, but because I think it achieves exactly what it sets out to deliver and deserves some credit! I found the trailer for this film accidentally on YouTube and okay, it's obviously low budget, but as a fan of especially British indie horror movies thought I'd track down a copy and give it a go.

The effects are actually really good (though the zombie mutant things are a bit disappointing when they finally arrive). There's a lack of big scare moments but overall I just found the whole thing entertaining. It's tongue in cheek - in some places actually quite self referentially funny - and whilst very short, the pace is refreshing and kept my interest up.

No, the characters aren't well rounded but they do tick all the boxes and I cared enough to enjoy watching the nasty politician guy get his come-uppance (and the pretty girls running away from the radioactive mutants). And there's a subtle twist at the end as well.

It really depends what you want out of a film... if you want high brow art or a big budget studio picture, avoid this film, but if like me you enjoy a refreshing change of pace and an entertaining little British action flick, this is actually really quite good.
