Transit 17

This was a Dollar Tree pickup and I realized within minutes that I overpaid for this. I'm not sure what they did with the post production on this, but for a bit I thought the thing was actually CGI rather than live action shot with a cheaper HD video camera. The sets replace any real dressing with masses of video screens, meanwhile. The director stars as Tex and has an ever-evolving generic southern accent (and a tendency to say "massa-cure" rather than "massacre", and as bad as the male actors are, the women are *worse*, apparently cast for shapeliness rather than talent. Not that it matters; the script is a bowl of cold, lumpy oatmeal.

The film is mostly a combination of 28 Days Later, Escape From New York and The Road Warrior. The film brings us back to the good old days (the 80's) and is a highly entertaining and blood soaked action that I thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. The flick is a little campy, but looks great and favors practical f/x and delivers huge with tons of great gory action. Seemed to be a lot of bad reviews, thought i'd give it a chance and I really enjoyed it....violent, action style film....bloody brilliant. I'm pretty sure you're going to like this movie a lot. And don't be to worry about all the gore in the previews, it's actually also pretty funny at times but all over a great movie to watch.

In fact, looking at the physiques of the extras, I'd pay reasonable odds this was a passion project of a gym, or enlisted then for at least two principals and a whole lot of army dudes. There's some imagination in the setting, the plot has a least an attempt at complexity, but the script is pretty average and lapses into cliche and trope. Still, the actors are charismatic, they do make good use of locations and the editing is competent which makes it at least watchable, if not good.

This film is great. I was surprised how good the quality was, lighting, plot, action, atmosphere. It never bored me at anytime. And yes there are a few zombies in it and zombie haters might not like that. But this movie is not about the few zombies, it has a real nice story and plot. The acting is average, but the camera work and VFX considering the budget has a pro feel that can stand up against several hollywood blockbusters. It was worth every penny.

I have read reviews before where someone said it hurt them to watch the movie. I always thought that they were just exaggerating. It turns out I was wrong. I chose this movie because it has a 5.5 rating on IMDB. This is a poorly written poorly acted film with special effects that looks more at home on a Halloween kindergarten wall collection. I didn't think it was possible to have everyone in the film act that campy. Nothing felt natural or normal. It was truly painful to watch.

It says a lot about a movie when even the official description has a typo AND a grammar error.

The writing , the actors , stories flow , everything just good , best movie. I like how they fight againts the enemy.. yes rate only for the cure , this movie can beat all hollywood movie so far... I wish i can give 100 stars for this movie.. I never waste my money for this movie.. since the cinema opening only 5 persons watch this movie... Nobody knows this movie WAS A GOLD. worth it. just worth it. everybody should read the review 1st before watch this movie. bcause i dont want them ruined their friends days just becuz of this movie.

In 2026 there is a zombie outbreak. The government wants to kill the infected and isolate the uninfected. There is a group known as "the resistance" who wants to create a cure or vaccine, terms they use interchangeably. There is a 15 or 16-year-old girl who is resistant and they want to take her to her rich father and destroy an antenna or something. And then maybe create a vaccine or cure because the government can't or won't. The plot wasn't tight. The acting and dialogue were sad. Plastic guns shooting CG fire. I noticed in one scene the rear passenger interior light was on. They must have had the driver's side door opened when the shot. Next time, take the bulb out. Pay attention to detail. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

As a low budget filmmaker, I know the hardships and limitations when there are limited funds. The actors I have in my series Dead Nightmare on YouTube were free and are better than the ones in this cluster of a film... We're talking poor pacing, poor acting, & the plot/story takes forever to get into action... The backdrops, equipment, & wardrobe was cool... but that's it. If you love low budget B films, the you can give it a whirl. Otherwise, stay clear.
