Excellent adaptation.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Piece of dung movie. This guy who made looks like the kind of guy who brags about the success of others. He's like that scrub from the TLC song. He latches onto the success of others trying to impress the girls but usually get sloppy seconds. Do Not Waste Your Time. Not much else to to say about this piece of crap.
Mack (Bill Steven McLean) is six miles north of Portland, Maine with his son Jesse (Ben McLean) teaching him manhood survivor skills when a localized zombie outbreak occurs. They travel to Portland in their plastic window Jeep saving Ashley (Hannah Elaine Perry) along the way. They end up in the building where the whole incident started attempting to save the innocent people who work there...even those that don't want their help. Jesse has a notebook and keeps track of the different ways he kills zombies, hence the title, although a comprehensive list would have been nice.This is the second best zombie film to come out of Portland, Maine ("Night of the Living Deb" was #1 in case you had doubt). It is designed to be a camp cult film, and certainly has many elements to make it one. It spoofs the zombie craze. The dialogue had humor and the characters were quirky and they had effective running gags. Acting was poor by design...I think. Pretty good for a low budget film. Decent sound, camera angle, and no mics in the picture. Nice to see someone actually use what they learned at film school.No swearing, sex, or nudity.
Another settlement needs your help, preferably starting with better movies. The acting is below expectations. The price is too high. Time I will not be given back. Did anybody get paid for this movie? I should have been paid to watch this movie. If you have such a low budget why not make a movie that was more budget friendly? Somebody watched too much of the walking dead and decided this would be a great idea, unfortunately it fell on its face in both horror and comedy. It was cringe worthy at best. The sound is cell phone quality, Picture was about the same. Quality of acting was pretty awful as well. The only actor that did a great job was the zombie in the wheelchair.
What a great way to spend time with my wife and friends. I am a huge fan of the Walking Dead series on AMC and love funny zombie movies like Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland. So this movie was a "no brainer" (no pun intended. We were cracking up at a few of the more memorable zombies but loved the pacing and plot. Excellent running gags throughout the movie too. The main characters were believable and the ladies were very easy on the eyes too. I have always been a fan of lower budget movies that do not rely on CGI for the big effects. My hat is off to the directors and producers and the sound guys were great too! Cannot wait 2 see the sequel 8). Great movie from a Maine crew with Maine actors filmed in Vacationland.
