Zombie Nation (2004)

Truly Dreadful Film

Masterful Movie

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This movie is bad. Bad acting, bad dialogues, bad Music, bad sets, bad effects, bad Story, everything is bad. You know, there's movies which are so bad they're good again, movies so bad you can actually laugh about it, and then there's this. Cringeworthy movie. The plot makes no sense, some of the text is pain-inducing, and you have to wonder... Who greenlighted this? I mean, seriously, there can't actually be a Studio which says "OK, let's get this out on DVD"... Somebody must have realized that this is crap?I hate Uli Lommel for this. I don't know how to describe it... Take ANY Uwe Boll movie, multiply the bad with 100, and you get this... It isn't even a real movie. I've seen wedding Videos with more effort put in it.

No scratch that, Zombie Nation IS the worst zombie movie ever and down there as among the worst movies ever made. As terrible as Vampegeddon, Zombie Night, Vampires vs. Zombies and Dead Men Walking were even they couldn't come close to the unwatchable ineptitude that is this dreck! There are movies that are so bad it's good, but there are movies that leave you reeling in disgust at how intelligence-insulting it is and ones where you struggle to see how anyone can find any good value in it, and Zombie Nation is one of them in the worst possible way. It's one of the most amateurish-looking movies there is, the sets look like someone's basement, some of the lighting is so dark that it's not easy to make out what's going on, the "raccoon-mask-like" make-up for the zombies can't even pass for make-up(likewise with their costumes which look like cheap Halloween hires) and the camera-work and editing are so jumpy and all over the place that it makes your eyes hurt. The audio is recorded so low that it's not always easy to make out the dialogue and when the volume turns up in "changing the volume on the radio" fashion you're not missing much when you're hearing repetitive dirge-like music that sometimes takes away from the mood and dialogue so cheesy it makes the toes curl that makes kindergarten talk seem mature in comparison. The story is barely there, instead it moves along at a snail's pace and is full of random scenes with absolutely no relevance that you have no clue what's meant to be going on and action scenes that look incomplete and reminiscent of playground bullying. The characters, well the few that show any kind of relevance to the story, are obnoxious and without personality, most of the time they're like walk-ons, while the zombies have barely any screen time and when they do appear they look terrible and are the most emotionless and least threatening zombies imaginable. Lommel's direction is typically inept, and the acting gives the impression that nobody wanted to be there which accounts for the uniformly lifeless-as-a-corpse performances. To conclude it is very difficult to put into words how awful Zombie Nation is, I really try to be a subjective person and am very respectful of other people's opinions but given the nature of the movie this is a very rare exception where it is impossible to be subjective. Only to be seen if you are curious as to see whether Lommel is capable of making a halfway-decent movie or whether it would be another one of his atrocities(of the movies I've seen of his so far, all of them have been that). 0/10 Bethany Cox

The numerous shortcomings of this filmhave been detailed in previous reviews Sob I'll spare you and concentrate on the "Financial" aspect of seeing this "film".I watched this on Netflix (streaming) which is $7.99 a month. Through some simple math, I estimate that it costs about 11 cents an hour For this service. An hour & twenty minute movie therefore costs about 15 cents to watch. I have never felt this ripped off over 15 cents in my entire life.Despite all that, I do think it must be seen to understand how diarreah-esque this mishap is. Thanks for reading this.

Well what can I say, no worry about spoilers here, I didn't watch enough to ruin anything, his review is more of an ulli review. Watching this film made me cry and beg for Uwe Boll, what am I seeing I don't even f$@&"@/ know. Crap crap crap is all I can really say about this, very disappointed, watch Berlin Undead if you want a unique movie but this one OMFG this one sucked. I love zombie movies and generally I sit through the worst even The Video Dead was better than this load of rubbish. This movie was even horrible when I was drunk, so many good zombie films out there so do yourself a favor and skip this load of elephant excrement, not even good as cheap entertainment. Someone please put me out if my misery, I think my IQ dropped fifty points
