GL84 Following a worldwide zombie outbreak, a small band of outlaws in the post-apocalyptic wasteland band together to drive out a demented psychopath that has taken control of an army of zombies and stop her before she turns the rest of the human race into the creatures.This here was quite a decent enough effort. One of the best points found here is the fact that there's quite a lot to like here regarding the exploits of the different clans at war here. There's a lot to really like about how this one sets up the whole storyline about the downfall of civilization and turning it back into the Old West backdrop which in turn sets up the war at the heart of the film. Using the zombies as a soldier for the evil army is a fun idea that really gets a lot of play here with the film's big action scenes here featuring the zombies attacking, from the opening ambush of the defenseless town being overrun by the creatures, the bloody bar-fight that thins out the herd and the blazing battle with the zombies at the supply depot out in the desert which offer plenty of big thrills. The later half all features tons of big action scenes against the zombies as well, from the shootout in the whorehouse to the battle in the underground mines with the zombies to the massive finale where the zombies overrun the town and forces everything into a sense of chaos. Featuring everything going wrong at once as the zombie hordes going crazy and ripping everyone to pieces as well as unleashing plenty of strong gunfights to finally put everything down, the high-energy sequence gives this a really strong finishing stand against the zombies and the ensuing rampage works giving this one plenty of action. Alongside the great-looking zombie makeup and plenty of bloodshed, there's a lot to like here while holding it up over the few minor flaws. The biggest issue against this one is the fact that the film never really bothers to develop any kind of coherent story as this one seems to just ramble on incessantly for no real reason at times. There's never an explanation for why the whole army comes together and what the whole point of the zombie army is supposed to accomplish other than she somehow got to control them which is another facet that's never explained. This one doesn't give anything about why or how they obey her, and overall it really seems forced in how the whole apocalypse happens. The other minor issue with this one is the CGI gore which crops up far too often here and stands out for how bad it is being CGI blood-splatter which is all the worse. These here are the film's biggest issues.Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.

ctldy Being an old fan of Nick Carter, I decided to check out the zombie film, Dead 7. And well, let's put it this way, he needs to stick to singing. The acting was terrible! One thing I noticed about this movie is that there were different types of accents that the actors were trying to pull off. Yet they would seem to forget they were in character. One minute one of the male actors, if you can call him an actor, sounded like he was in the old west (where this movie is supposed to take place) and then the next he didn't have an accent at all. And I'm not talking about one actor in particular. There were a few laughs. Joey Fatone (*NSYNC) with his lover, the Rum bottle, and AJ McLain (Backstreet Boys) as a Joker type villain. The only thing good about Carter's performance was his looks. He didn't do well in his other films so making another was a huge mistake. Other stars of this failure include Jeff Timmons of 98 Degrees, Erik- Michael Estrada of O-Town and one of the 90's decade's most talented singers (at least in my opinion) Jon Secada. With TV host Carrie Keegan playing the female lead. The plot doesn't start off well, and it doesn't develop at all. It's easy to root for the "boring" zombies. I'll say it again, Nick Carter needs to stick to singing. Maybe he had a good idea when starting this script and it didn't turn out well. Or maybe he just wanted to help himself and his fellow former heartthrobs get some extra dough. I hate to be another viewer giving this film a bad review but let's face it, this one should have stayed back in the Old West where it came from. One should be used to bad Syfy channel movies by now! But this is one of the worst. I give Dead 7 1 out of 10 Washed Up Boybanders.

slaus-01434 OK guys....I really wanted to like this, cause I like zombie movies and boy bands were my jam (and still occasionally are-especially backstreet boys and even spoke to AJ on the phone once (thanks to my sister and her ex husband-her ex went to school with AJ). I got most of the way through before turning it off. I have never written a movie review on IMDb before. I get the comedy aspect, for it to not be taken seriously, some of the acting was decent, but some other times....I felt like a bad porno from the 70s-80s was about to break out. There was no story line really, it was a mishmosh of different story lines and one of the scenes with AJ, why did he have to act like bad imitation Captain Jack Sparrow? That kinda ruined it for me in the beginning. And the lighting is all off balance and too washed out a lot. I'll probably watch it again and give it another shot when I don't have anything else to watch.Btw, I used to love the SyFy channel, that channel used to be awesome and started going downhill, so I hoped this movie would be somewhat decent and bring the channel back to a little bit of it's former glory.But seriously guys, please stick with singing, if you guys are going to act again, please don't act like one of those awful movies on the Max Movie Channels after 11-12. I can't take it and makes me either want to laugh or vomit. I know Joey is good-I love him Greek Wedding 1 and 2. Howie and Nick were semi decent.I would never want to put anyone down and if you want to continue making movies, we'll be there for you to help cheer you on for your dreams.

xxstaindrosesxx-1 The title of this movie matches perfectly. Everything from the dialogue, script, plot, acting, and even the tone of the film is dead. From the very start, the tone and vibe of this movie feels off. What should feel like a Western movie, somehow comes off as a mixture of the modern and past, but failing as if it doesn't know which one it's trying to be. In the end, it's really neither, and just a movie with low budget sets that don't fit the feel of the movie whatsoever. Not only do the sets feel out of place, the entire feel of the movie does too. It's set in a post-apocalyptic world, and yet they still have vehicles and a few other modern devices. Why is this set up like a Western then? It's all over the place.Aside from the tone and feel of the movie being off, the writing is atrocious. Nick Carter should stick to writing songs, because the only thing about this movie that was good was the song they all sang together for the credits. The plot is so weak, that you're not even sure what it is. There is a villain, but there is so little back story on every character in this film, that it's nonexistent. It seems like some cheap story a five year old tried to write up for a class assignment, and even a five year old could probably write better.Beyond that, the acting is darn right awful. Aside from small notes like AJ McLean, whose Johnny Vermillion character probably brought the most to the table, the other actors are just horrible. Even then, the only amusement he offers is his funny laugh throughout that sounds like Batman's Joker has asthma. Otherwise, everyone in this movie is horrific. Facial expressions are absent, while dialogue is off and completely weak. Nothing in this movie fits the way it should.Everything felt forced and some of the plots seemed to be Nick Carter's idea of wish fulfillment. Maybe he would have fulfilled his deepest desires if he could actually play a decent lead, but instead his one-liners are something left to be desired, and you WANT him to die in this movie, just like every other character. Of course, that's within the first five minutes of the film, and sadly not everyone is introduced within the first five minutes, but you want them dead anyways. They're THAT bad once they come onto the screen. All in all, this movie isn't even a decent B movie. It's just idiotic and a waste of time. Seriously, these boy band members should have just teamed up for the song, or went on tour together and made a band called Dead 7, because their only talent is singing.
