I'm a huge fan of horror movies and was really psyched about seeing this one. I was expecting the typical zombie romp with lots of aliens, gore and silliness, but it just failed to deliver.
The first half of the movie was really slow. I believe in some character development and all, but that's not really what was happening. I stuck through it, though, and was a little hopeful when the alien leech things I saw in the preview started running around the town.
Unfortunately, that was about the climax of everything. Saving the day just wasn't as difficult as it should've been when they were up against an army of zombies with a hive-mind, and I was disappointed. I was happy with the fact that nearly the entire population of the town died... but why couldn't I watch? The humor made it watchable, and I admit that it might appeal to people who would be more interested in the story and less in the zombies. I didn't feel ripped off, but it certainly didn't live up to my expectations. It's worth a watch, but I would wait for the DVD.
