Critics Consensus

Extinction has a few intriguing ideas, but they -- and some game performances from its talented stars -- are lost in the movie's muddled plot and frustrating pacing.

Martin Tsai

Los Angeles Times

"The Walking Dead" must really be leaving its mark on the entire zombie subgenre.

Devan Coggan

Entertainment Weekly

Vivas tries to add a family-drama twist to an otherwise standard survival story, but the characters aren't complex enough (and the secrets aren't explosive enough) to elevate this beyond a basic zombie flick.

Rated: C

The film's core problems: too little zombie and too much plot.

Rated: 2/5

On paper it sounds quite good and... I had high expectations for it, something that surely has influenced how it ended up being such a huge disappointment. [Full Review in Spanish]

They tried to create something with a deeper story focusing on the survivors, while also updating the zombies into something more terrifying. Unfortunately, it just fell a bit flat.

Rated: 5/10

Film Thrills

Extinction has an interesting spin on the zombies themselves and does a good job of featuring two very different ways to live out the zombie apocalypse, but ultimately adds little life to the subgenre.

Definitely not the worst movie I have seen. If you're looking for a movie where the characters have to fight humanoid monsters it's worth the watch. It also has a decent ending.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Extinction is a good movie with a lot of good scenes. It reminds me of The Walking Dead and other movies that come after they had the original ideas. Plus there's an intriguing story behind it not just kill kill kill.

Fast zombies. Dramatic. Some of the characters behave in a way that doesn't make sense, e.g., when there is imminent danger of zombies, then why leave the door fully opened when it could be closed or partially closed. it's fine. It has unusual looking undead. It has long stretches of quiet moments. The set, lighting, etc., create the atmosphere.
