Viewing Notes

via Netflix

Akin more to the 28 Days/Weeks Later zombie style than the traditional style, this actually focuses more on a small group of survivors and what they have to deal with instead of fighting zombies. I liked the change up a bit and it felt a bit like the Dawn of the Dead remake which is one of my favorites. This isn’t anywhere near as good though.
