Jaume Balaguero, 2007

This is what you might call a great id movie. It's a fantastic roller coaster ride, executed nearly flawlessly, that doesn't really amount to much in the end. Still, it's hard to complain when you're fed a steady diet of scary zombies - and not just scary zombies, but that great European staple, scary demon zombies. The creature at the end, in particular, was tremendously upsetting. In the first long shot, I figured it had to be CGI - there's no way to make a person look like that for real. As it approached, though, I saw that it was indeed an actor in makeup, which made it all the worse. Good fun, and bring on the sequel.

7.5/10
