The folks at Le Coin Du DVD have reviewed Deadlands: The Rising and gave it a 7 out of 10. Also in their review they compare me with Romero in many aspects of style and gore.
Here is the original French Language Version

Here is the English Translation (Via Google Translate)
Since the clear threat of an epidemic or virus possible on a global scale, the horror film has not ceased to convey his fears in convincing scenarios and apocalyptic as 28 Days Later or the recent adjustments to Last man on Earth (I Am Legend) and Invasion of the Body Snatchers (The Invasion). Gary Ugarek, young director and screenwriter, is the current trend with its very first effort: "Deadlands: The Rising."
The premise of departure is all that is more simple and original. The United States are victims of the terrorist attacks that ultimately cause a chemical explosion at the heart of a small American city. The inhabitants of this city realize that the dead come back to life and that the contamination is spreading rapidly and painfully. No fewer than 14 months of work and $ 15000 invested by the director himself were used to concoct this horror movie. Despite the many restrictions the film itself by the will and the passion of young Ugarek which now has the blessing and respect of some in the business, including the production team of the film Dawn of the Dead. For $ 15000, gore fans will be greatly since filled special effects tripe, crocage flesh and makeup are repoussants and bloody way you like. No wonder the film has won no fewer than 4 awards Weekend La Peur, Film Festival french horror presented annually. These moments of enjoyment are forgetting horror games clumsy actors and a script too classical.
Sometimes it is surprising that the low budget films like this can offer some bonuses on DVD as big Hollywood films that do not present the main program. To accompany the feature film, director Gary Ugarek stake of a 28-minute interview on the film. He recounts the difficulty of coordinating the scenes of attacks by Zombies hours with the schedules of actors and permissions of the city. It tells us that this film is part of a trilogy and that he had the blessing of having some middle names, it is already beginning to turn the rest, this time with a little more funding. A short interview with the producer suit and a ten-minute essay called "I am Zombie Man" which tells humoristiquement the daily schedule of a zombie.
Filmed with a camera MiniDV, it is surprising to see that the quality of viewing on the big screen does not really the visual pleasure of the film. It perceives a weakness in the dark moments when the lack of discernment contrasts with the soundtrack which is much too low in the final output with the soundtrack. But in the end, these technicalitées are pardonnables despite pleas.
Without great brilliance, "Deadlands: The Rising" stands out for his passion and his primary message gore makes it an interesting entertainment for those who love the movies "écrapou" and zombie. A new Romero was perhaps born!
