Unfortunately what this one fails to do is be interesting. A slow pace isn't always a bad thing, but when you're characters flat and there just isn't anything happening, it's hard to care about what's going on.

There isn't a likable character in the bunch. Almost the entire film consists of watching these characters sit around and peer out there windows under quarantine and wondering what's going on. The answer? Not much.

The problem is that it's going for an atmosphere of mystery to build tension. It just doesn't work because anyone with any with zombie films has seen it all before. The Danish aren't able to bring anything new or exciting to the table. Things only get interesting when these character finally decide to leave the house. By the time that happens there are only twenty minutes left to sit through. All the build up and then it cuts out as soon as things start to look interesting.

Overall it's a dull zombie movie. One with predictability galore and crap characters. It's nice to see the concept taken seriously though. Lord knows we have too many b-films rearing their undead heads. It's just that none of that makes all of this any less boring.
