A generally solid if somewhat flawed indie zombie effort
Traveling to a secret rave, a group of friends decide to pick up some extra drugs from a local dealer to spice up the event, but when they find the drugs are laced with a chemical that turns the infected ravers into flesh-eating zombies they are forced to band together to escape the situation alive.
This was a decent if somewhat flawed genre effort. One of the films' better features is the overall solid enough means of getting the zombie virus unleashed and loose within the party as it captures the raver lifestyle decent enough. Despite some of the budgetary limitations coming into play, the first half here still comes off rather well with the way they take the drugs from their source and absentmindedly provide it for the guests to consume. The resulting zombification and massive swarming scenes of the undead forces succumbing to the drug and ripping their victims to pieces has a lot of fun here with the constant attacks throughout the abandoned building where they hold the rave allowing for some genuinely strong sequences of the creatures attacking. With the whole thing driven by some great practical effects for the zombie action and kills throughout here, there are some fun factors to be had with this one. There are some drawbacks here that hold this one down. The main factor against it is the generally problematic structure of the film where it never seems to know what it wants to be. The encounter with the drug dealer, the relationship that develops involving the former lovers coming back together, or the quips that get thrown about involving the group trying to stay together give off a goofy tone that flies in the face of the material found here which is far more serious in nature so this kind of wacky content falls incredibly flat. On top of that, there's an absolutely infuriating and maddeningly stupid setup that's supposed to provide a human victim to the proceedings but is so unnecessary and useless that nothing about it works as the motivation is stupid, the rationale about it is even worse, the scenes playing it out so lame there's no scares to be had, and it just ends this on such a whimper there's little turning back. As well as the aforementioned budgetary limitations, these are the drawbacks to be had with this one.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language, Graphic Violence, drug use, and Brief Nudity.

Attrocious
This is a film that lacks just about any assemblance of any skill, poor performances, poor story, poor everything. Feels like it was made for all of £2.50 and that's being optimistic, my how Bruce Payne has slid down the scale.

What A Stinker.
This one is a bad comedy. It gets 2 Stars because I watched it to the end and it gets an extra star because they did show some boobs. Otherwise what a horrid stinkfest. Seriously I write better things than this in my sleep. 3/10
