It had such promise.<\/p>\n
Or, should have.<\/p>\n
How could you go wrong? Slow zombies<\/a>. {{Arnold Schwarzenegger}}. A plot.<\/p>\n It was also [almost] direct-to-video.<\/p>\n What am I talking about? {{Maggie}}. The worst movie Ahnold has been in since {{End Of Days}} (and\u00a0boy<\/em> was that one bad).<\/p>\n No, it was worse than {{End Of Days}}.<\/p>\n I don’t know where to begin. So let’s start with the conclusion. It sucked. Bad. And not in the {{Red Heat}} kind of bad – more in the {{Gigli}} kind of bad.<\/p>\n The zombies in this movie are slow (a plus), but they also take weeks to turn into one after being bit (which, conveniently, gives the non-turned ample time to plan to eliminate them, and time for the turning to get their affairs in order before being dispatched). In the whole movie, I think, there’s only two encounters with “real” zombies – which could have lots of promise. Focusing on the humanity of the situation could have been good.<\/p>\n But it wasn’t. The pacing was atrocious. {{Good Night, and Good Luck}} was this slow, but for a reason. This movie was slow, I think, so that they could call it a “movie”. It’s listed at 95 minutes from IMDb<\/a>. Pretty sure it’s really only about 52 minutes long.<\/p>\n And even that was about 41 minutes longer than it should have been.<\/p>\n I’ve only not seen a couple Arnie films – make sure you add this to your list of ones of his to skip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It had such promise.
