Extinction

Caution: This Might Contain Spoilers!
If you enjoy my blog, you may enjoy my facebook page!

This film is based off the novel Y pese a todo written by Juan De Dios Garduno. Lu is living with her father, Jack, in a safe city where with a neighbor, Patrick. Lu has grown curious about the neighbor that her dad forbids her to speak to. They also discover that the virus that destroyed the world has evolved. 

This film was directed by Miguel Angel Vivas. The zombies are a backdrop to the character story. The film takes a lot of time to establish these characters and explain their history. Even though there aren't many zombies shown, it has an action packed ending. The icy backdrop adds a small element to creepiness. The zombie variations are unique and frightening for the brief time that they appear on screen. There can be some arguments that they aren't true zombies, but that's only for the die hard fans. Jeffrey Donovan played the role of Jack. This actors lifeless performance suited the film. Quinn McColgan played the role of Lu. She was a great supporting actress for Donovan and Fox. Matthew Fox played the role of Patrick. He was good for his role.

I give this film 2 out of 5 stars! It has a lot of potential that it doesn't fulfill.

This film can be seen on DVD.

Answer to last blog: Stan Lee made his appearance in Deadpool as the Strip Club DJ.

Non-Stop
Robocop
3 Days to Kill
The November Man
