You just know this is going to be a bad movie

The description for a movie available on Netflix:

"A Civil War veteran returns home from a hunting trip to find that his son is missing and his wife has turned into a zombie".

Poor guy! Survives the most costly war in US history, in lives lost, only to have to deal with a missing son and a zombie infestation.

I don't know what they pay the people who come with such ideas for a movie plot but I could do it a heck of alot cheaper and still provide the same quality.

1. I know this movie...

Watched it. I don't recall the name to it. I thought it was just okay...nothing special. It held my interest, at least I didn't fall asleep watching it. Watched it about a month ago.

2. That sounds like a more interesting plot than Rise of the Zombies.

Showed on the sci-fi channel. That two hour show had good actors with a bad zombie plot. For no reason that makes sense, there was a science team on Alcatraz that needed to go into San Fran to find a doctor who they thought had a cure for the virus. The key is, that they were constantly on the go. The body count is high as the characters make stupid decision after stupid decision to act like they had never seen a zombie movie before. Here are just a few obvious things they overlooked:

1) Always check every room and car in the safe house to make sure it's safe.

2) Always look under the car before you coax the pregnant woman out of the vehicle.

3) Always cut the caesarian baby's umbilical cord when the baby's mother gets bitten by a zombie.

4) Never leave a depressed woman in a streetcar on a hill in San Fran with the keys on the seat.

5) When driving away from Zombies, it's okay to drive down Lombard Street slow and safely, because Zombies aren't smart enough to take shortcuts.

6) When you finally coax the nearly insane geek doctor to remove a desk and other office furniture to open the door, it's a good idea to push all those furniture items back against the door so you don't have to worry about a Zombie breaking through a narrow, commercial thick glass pane to reach in and grab your hand and bite you.

7) If you're looking for a safe place to put your daughter while you go fight Zombies, don't leave her in an open prison cell. Close the door and lock her in before leaving.

And now that I trashed it, does anybody know how it ends? The stupid DVR stopped just five minutes before the ending. The last I saw they were on the helicopter getting back to Alcatraz.

3. Sucks to be him!

I don't particularly like Zombie movies much, mostly because they make boring villians. All they do is lumber around aimlessly chasing live people everywhere and biting and infecting them- and may I say that for a bunch of mindless drones they actually seem to be amazingly fast and intelligent when it comes to hunting prey. I much prefer Vampire/Werewolf movies because at least they have higher brain functioning and can make for interesting characters.

The first two Resident Evil movies, although taking a more sci-fi approach to zombies, were pretty good IMHO but that storyline is starting to get repetitive. How much more of the world is T-virus-free by now? I do confess that I loved Zombieland but that, of course, was more of a comedy.

4. Well, there is a market for those movies, particularly now that streaming service is popular.

There are a bunch of companies that create movies that they hatch up upon hearing about a Hollywood movie title.

Which is why there were Abraham Lincoln undead hunter movies out there, that was pretty badly made.

I don't watch them but, since streaming services and dvd bins need fillers, that is what they are for.

As for me, I use Netflix to watch TV series.
