The Forever Dead (2007)

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

After a zombified bunny gets lose from a nearby lab, it spreads an infection that travels quickly through the woods of North Carolina. Numerous people try to avoid the outbreak to varying degrees of success or lack there of in this extremely low-budget film.Five films into the Catacomb of Creepshows 50-movie collection and I've already got to the first truelove worthless film. Even the other bad ones had somethings to say nice about them (yes even the abysmal "Demons in my Head") Not so here. It's overlong, none of the myriad of characters have anything close to a story arc or development, the sound is atrocious (The talking parts too soft, the screaming WAY too loud) May god help me, but I even think "Redneck Zombies" was better than this turd.

This is obviously not a high-budget movie. The acting skill varies, the special effects are not very special and the sound is uneven. It's a little over-long for an Indie horror flick - the loss of twenty-odd minutes would help the pacing a good deal – and the subject matter isn't particularly original.That said, it's rather fun. You get the impression that the cast and crew enjoyed their time making the movie, and it feels like it was made by fans of the genre. This isn't one for fans of glossy Hollywood horror, but it's oddly likable in its own way. It's not a film to rush out and look for, but if you stumble across it in your travels, you could do worse.

This looks like something you'd find at a yard sale in a box of old VHS tapes. I watch a lot of sub-par films, but I think that this movie beats out most of the worst of them. The camera work is painful to watch, and this could have been helped in part by the use of an occasional tripod or some rigging to steady the nausea inspiring work. The story isn't horrible, but there's far too much going on to be interested in any parts of it other than the "rabid rabbit." Far too much fake blood, far too much reliance on screaming, and some work truly needs to have been done on the dialog in this movie. The problems outweigh the positives from a viewer perspective.

...in a certain respect they're right. When Compared to higher budget horror, and more specifically zombie, flicks it's crap. Complete trash. But when you realize it's made completely on the cheap, with a group of friends, locals, and nearby extras and industry people it's just about as good as anyone could do. It's cheesy, over the top, sub-par edited, and the sound effects are definitely old school. But I loved it. It's a great truly indie horror. Fun and gory. I think the only complaint I really had about the movie was the long haired redneck that kept staring at the camera. Other than that small issue I got what I expected. Stop being so hard on people who do what they can with what they've got, and start being harder on this high budget cow pile industry that keeps force feeding you multi million dollar "independent" flicks and series movies that don't even stay true to the source material.
