  1. Looks Creepy.

  2. I haven't read the book, but this looks like a bit of a departure from it. I think the book is just a collection of people's experiences (i.e. short stories) from the "Zombie Wars", without a central character.
     
  3. alterego is correct. The book is based on multiple people's experience of the outbreak. Some very well done. The problem I have with what I'm seeing in the trailer is... I Am Legend with Brad Pitt. No creepiness and no suspense like what one would expect from this title. Mainly a straight up action flick.

    I'll reserve judgement for when I actually watch.
     
  4. Think about the movie Love Actually. It was a collection of 8 short stories that revolved around a strong central character played by Hugh Grant. That worked pretty well.

    And the human pyramid thing is creepy.
     
  5. This film seems to have seen it's share of rewrites and reshoots as well, which can sometimes mean big-time studio meddling.
     
  6. Way too much bad CGI on the zombies.
     
  7. I didn't think it looked too bad. The problem is that actors wouldn't be able to do that so it's obviously fake.
