Just watched this little French film, more infected olympic screechers ala 28 Days Later than zombies, but it was an ok flick. Kind of a cross between Rec and Dawn '04, silly as fuck in places, but an ok way to waste an hour and a half. Anyone else seen this? It's not brilliant, but it's not bad, either.

Be warned, if you're completely anti-runner, I'd steer well clear. I will say, though, it's got one of the best head shots I've seen.

Don't mind running zombie or infected, like shamblers better, but no hatred for their speedy cousins

Yeah, it was alright. Just mindless fun. But I really couldn't get past the fact that, even though they knew that the only way a zombie would go down was with a shot to the head, they NEVER SHOT THE DAMN HEAD!!!

Thanks for putting me onto that film, it was Bloody (pun intended) good fun.

It was almost like a companion piece to (dare I say it on these forums) Dawn 04, same kind of zombies, It wouldn't be hard to almost say it was what was happening in France at the the time of Dawn 04.

The scene in the underground garage with one of the people standing on top of the car surrounded by the horde could have been taken straight out of the Dead Rising game.

Do agree what was said about the cast not aiming for the head enough, can only think its was a parallel universe where zombies films were never made.

Please give this movie a try, don't be put off by the running zombies or me comparing it to Dawn 04, its a really enjoyable zombie film.

A solid 7/10 from me.

Yeah I typically do that... but lately I have been been trying to support movies that I would like by purchasing it or netflixing (is that even a word) it.

But I wouldnt mind a PM...

I will just have to purchase it at a later date.

I just hope Hollywood doesnt redo it with Shia Lebouf and release it before the original comes out here.

The makers of La Horde fart in your general direction, Monsieur!
