Audience Member It was unashamed to be campy and amazing. Over the top in the very best way. It couldn't have been done better. Anyone and everyone has to watch and enjoy! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Zero character development, overacting/bad acting, story plot although semi original is rife with familiar movie tropes. The landscape CGI is okay and the zombie death's are gory enough for any zombie movie fans but overall the effects are not great especially when considering the films budget. Very disappointing. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Never Trust A Skeleton With A Shotgun.. Or Anyone Who Says This Is A Good Film! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Although you can tell there was genuine effort put into making "Army of the Dead" the results are unfortunately incredibly mediocre. The acting ranges from passable to pretty bad, the special effects range from okay (such as the skeleton army, which is often show and cut in ways that look good despite the low budget) to laughably bad (some effects such as blood spurts and explosions are computer generated instead of being practical and those are some of the easiest effects to do in live action films). From a low budget production you can forgive the bad effects but the real problem with the film is that it isn't paced or written very well. At times you'll be wondering where the film is going and questioning whether what happened makes any sense or not. The only reason to watch this film would be if you yourself were thinking of doing a low budget movie and you wanted to see how it shouldn't and shouldn't be done because both aspects are seen in this movie. For everyone else, this isn't even "so bad it's good" territory. (Dvd, September 18, 2012) Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member not half but minus 9 and a half Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was sort of action/thiller. I don't think it was such a good movie. the skeltions looked way to fake. storyline was fair good though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
