Hope it makes it this way by kikuchiyoboy	Sep 12th, 2007 10:16:37 PM
Haven't seen a thing in the theater in a while.
Is the signal tapping your feet in the men's room? by Cruel_Kingdom	Sep 12th, 2007 10:41:11 PM
You know, as in a gay invitation. Just wondering.
I'll see it by krushjudgement	Sep 12th, 2007 10:41:34 PM
That's all.
Not like Cell at all... except for the premise by Bass Bastardson	Sep 12th, 2007 10:58:23 PM
ummm... okay.
I love these low budget movies by ewokstew	Sep 12th, 2007 11:09:33 PM
made on digital. I think they used a Canon XL-H1 with a mini-35 adapter. I love film, but these are great times when you can shoot something and actually have it picked up for distribution despite the fact that it wasn't shot on film.
Yeah. The digital age definitely opens up a door. by kikuchiyoboy	Sep 13th, 2007 12:20:03 AM
It's like giving everyone a Film camera and an moviola. Good times can only be had.
Actually, "not like the Cell at all... by ButtfuckZydeco	Sep 13th, 2007 06:30:07 AM
except for the premise." Would be a great way to go. The only good thing about The Cell was its premise. I'm glad I got to read Stephen King up through Misery before I ever got a dose of The Tommyknockers and what followed, so my experiences with the earlier books weren't tainted by the crap. Hell, he was on such a tear, I didn't realize he had started sucking until about 100 pages into Insomnia, 7 years after the transition happened. This flick is way more to be good than anything Roth will do with that crap.
Tarintio-esqe Change of Pace has me Worried by redfist	Sep 13th, 2007 07:52:25 AM
If it is just a balls out violent zombie flick that would be great, but if they switch over to tounge-in-cheek too cool for school black comedy in act2 like the guy says....well then count me out.
Follow up to my review by phunkysai	Sep 13th, 2007 10:15:17 AM
To the people that are questioning why I said "Not like Cell except for the premise"... what I meant is that the premise is a signal that makes people crazy. Beyond that, it is nothing like "Cell" and you'll understand why when you see the movie. To Xiphos: I didn't rehash the plot because other reviewers on this site already outlined the plot in detail.
i will get out and see this by FILMFUNK	Sep 13th, 2007 10:42:35 AM
it looks kind of good. gave up reading the Cell and it reminded me of 28 days later and so does this and hope it's better than Right at your door which I thought was a bit shit!
a signal cause people to go crazy,..... by liljuniorbrown	Sep 13th, 2007 02:07:34 PM
Crazy like killing themselves or each other? Or does it make them murdering zombies? Are we talking funny like Shaun of the Dead? I need to know this stuff before I part with $22.00 for a pair of tickets and a $40.00 trip to somewhere like O Charley's.
