I know it is a quite old movie, but because it was a zombie horror movie, I think that it was worth a shot.
The story revolves around survivor of the zombie apocalypse where they stayed in a mall and hoped someone will come to save them. But help won't come, right? Then the group decided to go outside to a small island rather than wait to their doom inside the mall.
The sound! I don't think it was Netflix that made the sound doesn't quite right. I kept on turning the volume up and down, for when they were talking, their voice was so silent to the point where it was really hard to understand the conversation. On the other hand, when zombie pops up, the sound suddenly got loud. It create a more realistic atmosphere, like on a busy street we can't hear other people whispering. Nevertheless, it left a bad impression.
When people have been bitten, they turn. I like how they seems to think rationally to ensure the group safety. Like when the pregnant woman was tied to the bed by her husband. Her husband did the right thing. But then the old lady found her, and they shot each other. Usually on a zombie movie, someone - usually a blond, or black person (Hollywood racism) just make a really bad decision that expose the group to a worse situation. But they can managed to get a reasonable storyline here.
Though, the death when the group was on the run, where a woman died by a chainsaw, for me, that was just plain stupid. Why would he does that? He was panic because of a zombie dangling behind the truck?
Spoiler here, I really like the ending. Credits were shown with the epilogue, where they continue their journey using the boat to the small island. only to find that it was also infected.
