Watch a bunch of frail looking anemic kids

Watch a bunch of frail looking anemic kids and one with no legs knock the faces off zombies that easily have 100 lbs on them. These people wouldn't survive the fist 5 minutes of this movie. Enjoy having the popular girl and outcast girl argument after people are dying and other meaningless teen drama? I was honestly surprised that nobody had a pronoun attack in the first 20 minutes of the movie.

A Soska or Tubi film ?

A Jen & Sylvia Soska directed film which suffers from the fact Jen & Sylvia Soska are not the writers.After Rabid, the Iconic American Mary and Dead Hooker in the Trunk my hope are always high when Soska Sisters release a new film. I love the Living Dead films so when this was announced almost a year ago I thought we were in for a treat.There is some good casting in places, some decent practical effects but it's all let down by the script.This doesn't feel like a modern horror where the protagonists make smart choices. This Jars especially as some are supposed to be the descendants of Ben from Night Of The Living Dead.This feels more like a Tubi Original rather than a Soska Sisters film.

Been done before and better. Soska Sisters take steps backwards with each film.

Plot holes galore. Unlikeable characters and dumb script.Soska Sisters haven't made a decent film since the entertaining AMERICAN MARY. Rabid was an insult to the original and Dead Hooker in a Trunk was just ok.This has so many annoying parts it just spoils the whole thing.Unlikeable characters who don't seem to like each other at all so why are they friends or together!?The script is lazy and full of holes and the charactersaking more than. Your normal dumb decisions.The acting is bearable (except that awful actor the Soska Sisters keep using) who this time was blessedly only in it briefly as a Zombie Paramedic. (He is the worst wooden actor out there, ruins any scene or film he is in.This could have been fun.A festival to celebrate the memory of all those killed in the '68 Zombie outbreak. (Seemingly suppressed and dormant ever since) Yet meteors bring it all out again which just happens to coincide with the Festival (Right!!) Some cheap but ok looking practical FX makes for a couple of ok death scenes but it's all so background and edited so quickly don't see much. Maybe because not best quality FX.Couple of ok gore gags.You usual trend of diversity inclusions are here but don't feel forced like most others and aren't distracting so that's good.It's a shame.I wanted to like it but was left disappointed and struggled to keep my attention. I simply didn't care for the characters at all. The main lead was cute but that it. Rest were cliché after cliché.I remember Return of the Living Dead 2 Rave to the Grave having a similar feeling. And YouTube series Zombie Rave/ Beyond the Rave having similar theme but with vampires.Soska sisters had potential to become a popular name after the fun American Mary but seem to be taking a step backwards every film they do. And now seem destined to survive in low budget Tubi level hell. Maybe they are happy with that. But I think it's a shame as they had potential. Need to work with better scripts and better actors if wish to continue imo.
