Viewing Notes

Finally knocked this off the DVR. Easily one of the better produced The Asylum features that rivals or beats their last zombie feature Zombie Apocalypse. Thing is I’m tired of zombies… esp. this year. So as much as I can appreciate the earnest effort here (not the usual tongue in cheek humor) I’m just not all into this one even if it is a better play on zombies than The Walking Dead (and bonus for being set on location in San Francisco). Also the effects are pretty damn good. Wish I could be more into it.
