Directed by Nick Lyon. Written by Keith Allan and Delondra Williams. Starring Mariel Hemingway, LeVar Burton, French Stewart, Ethan Suplee, Chad Lindberg, Heather Hemmens and Danny Trejo.
Plot: it’s your basic survive the zombie apocalypse movie.
SPOILER ALERT: If you’re looking for a Danny Trejo movie, go somewhere else. This is not the movie for you. Hint: he doesn’t last all that long.
The movie isn’t horrible. It has it’s fun moments. And there’s a dog the doesn’t die. But most of it was just terrible. There’s a lot of good actors and not one of them could save the ridiculous script. The effects were sloppy. The story was weak. I suggest you stay away.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.

This was pretty dreadful and I thought if nothing else Danny Trejo is always fun to watch. As your spoiler alert mentions he wasn’t in it long, which was a huge disappointment. But it was fitting with the movie. Good review and a great warning to others.

Thank you so much. We were pretty disappointed with the Trejo thing too.
