Undead (2003)
8/10
Better Then You Would Think It Is...
25 October 2006
Okay, from all of the things that have been said about this movie, I really had no idea what to expect. In all honesty, it sounded like just another zombie flick that would be crap (since a lot of them coming out recently are). The first half of this movie is just a straight arrow zombie story that all of us have seen again and again, but, the last half of the movie is something else entirely.

The movie starts out in a small Australian town with meteors shooting to Earth turning people into flesh crazed zombies. A group of people hide out in the basement of a country house trying to figure out what to do. It is when they decide to hit the road to get to the local hospital that things become really weird... aliens?

The first half of the movie was loosing my interest. Sure, there is plenty of gore and crazy action, but, I have already seen it all, and from better movies. The second half of the movie really isn't quite what you expect. It seems as if the writers said "enough of this zombie crap, let's do something original". And it finally got my interest and I really started enjoying the movie at that point.

For those of you that like something a little bit different with your zombies, I would check it out. You should enjoy this. 8/10
