Day of the Dead 2: Contagium Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
jlthornb51 This is a motion picture that demands to be seen. Intense, horrifying film that is a significant addition to the zombie genre. Inspired direction coupled with an imaginative script make for an often uneven but always terrifying motion picture experience. The make-up is some of the most creative ever done in cinema and is a vital element in some of the brilliant scenes both shock and entrance the audience. The performances are incredibly powerful and uniformly excellent as a cast of talented actors give everything they have to the overall success of what is essentially an ensemble effort. A relatively substantial budget is certainly reflected in the production values and special effects which will leave most viewers speechless. While this film is sometimes not accepted as an authentic entry in the Day of the Dead series, it is an admired stand alone film that offers a powerful story that is both unique and very well told.
movieaddict1988 After watching this, I am in no doubt, that this film doesn't deserve a star rating. (ok, probably half a star at the very most) I was extremely disappointed with this film. Please if you are a fan of the first Day of The Dead film, keep it at that. Day of The Dead 2: Contagium has absolutely nothing to do with the first film and is just a cash-in because Taurus Entertainment Company hold the rights to the original 1985 film. So in their eyes, this is an official sequel, but the fans now this most definitely not to be the case.So the bottom line basically is, please save yourself the time and don't watch this film!
alistairc_2000 This is less of a review and more of a warning. You might be suckered into thinking that this trash has something to do with Romero's classic it has not.I was really interested to hear that they were going to make a sequel to G Romero's Day of the Dead, then I found out he was not involved. Just as well as this is number 3 on the all time terrible list for zombie movies. This movie has nothing to do with the first movie and has a first when you become a zombie you become telepathic... tele-pathetic more like... avoid this unless you enjoy pain......If they had let it stand on its own merits rather than trying to lay claim to a classic this would have just been pathetic. As it is its not so bad its good its just play bad. I love bad horror movies but this one left me completely cold. It was another one of those movies I suffered at Frought fest. That was when I could be bothered to go.
Elswet As a spin off of a sequel, this isn't bad. Not really. The premise may be ludicrous, but once one considers the source material this spins from, this story line seems quite logical, actually. We do tend to enslave anything we consider of lesser intelligence with stronger backs, so the idea of domesticating the zombies to perform manual labor tasks, etc. is not quite so strange.Considering the budget, this is not so bad, but I can say I am entirely thankful they did not continue with this line, and reverted back to the original "Dead" series.All in all? This is a franchise fan's movie. I won't say that casual viewers cannot enjoy it, but I generally would not expect it. It's bloody and visceral like the rest of the series, and not for younger viewers or the squeamish.It rates a 4.9/10 on the Movie Scale.It rates a 0/10 on the Romero Scale (It's NOT a Romero Film).It rates a 7.4/10 on the Splatter Scale from...the Fiend :.
