2 background mistakes
2009-11-13 - Quite apart from the implausibilities that others have commented on, there are 2 incongruities in the background. The first is in the opening scene in a bank in Berkeley. The window says Savings and Loan?? This is an American term. As far as I know, it is never used in Australia. The equivalent Aussie term, which came from the British, is Building Society. Remember that the movie is explicitly set in Australia.

The second is when the plane crashes and the police and fire brigade arrive. One of the cop cars is a black and white cruiser, just like in the US. Australia doesn't use such cars.



Quirky Zombie Movie - Recommended
2009-10-25 - "Undead" is a quirky and somewhat campy zombie movie set in an Australian fishing town. Horror movie purists and diehard zombie fans will likely dislike this one. For me the movie started off very unevenly and at first I thought that it was going to be unwatchable, but it did find its way not too far in.

There was a lot of blood and gore applied liberally to the sets and even some decent special effects, but what made this movie enjoyable were the humorous elements and an odd plot twist. The acting ranged from bad (even for a low budget horror movie) to fairly good. The cinematography was really nothing special at all.

This was an interesting diversion and I would likely watch it again. Recommended.

Good Fun
2009-06-09 - I myself enjoyed the movie, i can deffinetely at least recomend renting it but don't go into it expecting a serious zombie movie

super-entertaining aussie zombie/sci-fi
2009-04-26 - If you like those absurdly comical horror-gore movies of Peter Jackson 'Bad Taste' and 'Braindead', as well as Evil Dead II & III, then this movie would suit you.

The acting is awesome and done with credibility, and the storyline is so absurd it's comical: its a zombie horror movie with a sci-fi twist.

For storyline and such it's gets a low score, not much in it makes much sense....but that's not really the point with zombie movies, that's not why you watch them.

But for entertainment value it gets 5/5 !

To me this movie belong on the cult-shelf.


A film destroyed by horrible music and bad cinematography.
2009-01-24 - This film has one of the worst music soundtracks I ever heard... and it's a shame because the it promised so much. But my guess is the producers did not have a penny left after shooting and had to create and record the music soundtrack on their 90's home computer. It sounds like plastic music where everything is synthetic... it's intrusive, boring, irritating, adds nothing, expresses nothing and it's everywhere!!!!

The cinematography is also a big problem because is it too dark and most of the time it is pitch black. The basement scene is ridiculous: all you see are flashlights moving around (with that horrible music). How can you relate to characters you barely see?

Special effects are a mixed bag. The early minutes of the film, when the meteorites fall from the sky are simply fabulous! The makeup effects are also great. But after the first 20 minutes, the effects get crappier and crappier. The light spots from the clouds look as bad as bad can be.

The actors seem to be good, but the characters are cardboard looking... and the cops look like they came from an Ed Wood film. Then the "Cowboy" character who uses the triple shotgun has a voice that looks like an impersonation of Clint Eastwood. And it looks like it was dubbed.

And most of the "fresh" ideas we see have been done before... like the legs that keep on walking after it's zombie torso has been separated by a blast. I've seen that one before.

And the story. It has none. It's just "people running from zombies" with some aliens thrown in at the end just to pretend there are new ideas here. And the zombies do nothing. They are slower that Romero's zombies (laughs).

So... there's nothing new here.
