Gary D I almost skipped watching this movie when I saw a 4% rating. Then I thought I’d watch a little just to see how bad this movie really could be. Much to my surprise I watched the movie to the end. I wouldn’t try to say that this was a must see, but I found it entertaining, and worth checking out. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/23/24 Full Review Garvis W 2% Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Emoji M This movie is already dead. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Audience Member get this awful movie to 0 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This has nothing to do with zombies but evil flies that terrorize a greedy businessman a cop and a convict all staying on this island for different reasons...Insepid comes to mind. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Freakin ridiculous! If anyone owns a copy of this, take it and burn it. Wait, first spit on it then burn it. I borrowed this copy and will strongly advise the owners to dispose of this in the proper manner. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
