Greetings folks!
Todays zombie thriller is called Edges of Darkness. This movie rated 1.75 stars on netflix and 3 and 1/10 on IMDB. you can view the trailer HERE.
It starts out rather quickly as a family is attacked and torn asunder by the zombie horde. one lone rescuer steps in clearing a path and rescues a son and mother combo. They are taken back to a remote and solitude apartment complex where each survivors has his or her own apartment. it turns out the kid is sick and needs his meds or he wont last long this forces the mother who has played total bitch up until now to eat humble pie and ask for help in getting across town to get his medicine. Now why not not just bring that shit along. I'm sure Max Brooks would agree that needed medications should be a priority on your things to take.
Not only are we having to deal with Zombie but vampires as well. Spoiler Alert * The black couple are vampires *. WTF? why do we need vampires in a zombie flick. I mean seriously a good zombie flick is hard enough to put together without some random vampires thrown in the mix.
We have a black couple who keep to themselves, a white couple whos male ego is driven to be the hero, and a loner girl who kicks ass when the time is called for. it is this loner girl we see at the begining helping the ill fated family. Spoiler alert * It appears the mom has been bitten. *
somehow and for some reason the computer has come alive and look for energy sources. what the hell for I have no idea. The black couple has kidnapped a young girl and is keeping her hostage. and now the male thinks they should find a male captive instead.
The loner girl goes out to find the medicine and instead gets taken hostage by a chain smoking priest.
as the loner girl remains captive we see that the asian guy dean is writing what is going on with her. this makes the viewer wonder what is real and what isnt. in fact he even starts to questions the reality of the situation himself.
our black stud leaves to find a mate for the female captive. during broad daylight I might add. yup its a stinker of a movie. Dean and Dana are the "white couple". for some reason the plant is killing off lifeforms to run Deans computer. the priest is one of three looking for the antichrist. who supposedly has taken the shape of a boy. coincidence?
Stellie and talie seem to hit it off really well. in fact natalie willingly offers up herself to setellie. Dana is talking to a zombie she named morris. Dana Dreams of dancing the waltz with a couple rounds of zombies and comes to realize a moment of clarity.
Stellie is dying and natalie has some hidden tricks up her sleeves. all the while the compyter is still trying to find more sources of power. Dana being it's main target.
If this has peaked your curious minds please watch the rest of the movie to find out what happens to all of these characters.
I give this two out of 5 for gore factor, 2 out of 5 for acting
I give this movie 2 severed thumbs way , way up for this movie.
Remember folks I watch this shit so you dont have to.
