2.5/4

This is a serious, austere film that feels as if it's barely restraining the B-movie within. In the end, it fights itself to a draw.

Carballo also fails to capitalize on the climate of paranoia the script attempts to engender throughout.

2.5/4

Carballo offsets the lack of surprise with such efficient suspense builders as propulsive music, ambient noise, realistic lighting and judicious handheld camerawork while efficiently explaining the science and politics behind what is happening.

2/5

Director Manuel Carballo seems to be trying for the psychological unease of Blindness, or perhaps of something by Cronenberg, but it's never more than artificial terror wrapped in bland social commentary.

Cuttingly sharp and incisive SF horror; a chillingly polite film about the fascism that rises quickly up in a moment of fearful crisis.

A zombie movie in which the normal people are to be feared. Modest in scope, but very effective.

Better than most zombie movies. Interesting concept - the zombies portrayed as the victims - the way it would be if zombies existed in real life.

Provocative Zombie Apocalypse With A Hard Emotional Edge, Which For Whatever Reason Doesn't Quite Go The Distance In The 'Care About The Characters' Department. For This Reason When People Are Fighting To Survive The Crazy World, & It's All Going Disastrously Wrong, It Gets A Bit Boring, Cos The Care Factor Wanes Away Rather Than Waxing Into The Crescendo That Was Probably Aimed For But Sorely Missed.
