Baby S This movie is over the top an it is really funny to watch as well Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/23/24 Full Review Audience Member DEAD RUSH (2016) directed by Zach Ramelan, produced by Lexy Robidoux, Zach Ramelan and Karl Janisse, and screenplay by Raven Cousins, Zach Ramelan, and Gavin Michael Booth is a Canadian Zombie film. DEAD RUSH opens with a terrifying scene of a young girl called Amy (Amylea Devauge) coming to in the back seat of her parents' car. Her father has been impaled and her mom is injured. While Amy and her mom barely make it to safety, a Zombie is on their heels. Amy's mom (Jamie Elisabeth Sampson) tells her daughter to hide and then goes back out into the hallway to confront the Zombie. Amy doesn't listen and follows moments later to find her mom being overpowered by the Zombie. Amy makes a dash for it but is chased into a dead end situation. She decides to defend herself and picks up a sharp wooden object from the floor. While in the throes of a fight with the Zombie, the movie cuts to 3 weeks earlier. What happens to Amy? Well, you've got to watch the film to find out. We meet our protagonist David (David Michael Moote) in a love making session with his lovely wife Megan (Raven Cousins). Both Moote and Cousins give fine dramatic performances. David finally takes a call from his paranoid father (Timothy Paul McCarthy) who wants him to watch a conspiracy video. You get the feeling something is wrong and things aren't as they should be. Megan is worried too and she suspects it has nothing to do with her pregnancy. While out on the town to celebrate his birthday with his buddy Wayne (Charlie Hamilton), things really take a turn for the worst when David finally takes a frantic call from Raven. David and Wayne rush to get to her but encounter chaos in the streets. It's the onset of the zombie plague. People are turning. David arrives too late to save his lovely wife. David and Wayne take shelter in a gym and barricade themselves inside but that situation comes to a tragic end. Although David manages to break free, he ends up crashing his vehicle. Is it the end? No, it is just the beginning of his journey. He is rescued by Carly (Caleigh Le Grand) and taken in by a survivalist group headed by the Reverend Patrick Rock (Rich Piatkowski), a 온라인카지노추천 evangelist. I loved Rich Piatkowski's portrayal of the disturbed obsessive Reverend with his black and white views on the plague. And Caleigh Le Grand's performance of the tough chick is spectacular to watch too. Again, something is just not right. David shows signs of infection. When David witnesses Patrick dispatching a member who is infected as doing God's work, David realizes he is at risk. When out on a mission with some of the other survivalists to locate a girl with has been bitten but shows no signs of infection and who may represent a possible cure, things go terribly wrong. Ambushed by Zombies, William (Austin Duffy) and David are the only two who make it back to camp. William confronts David and wants to denounce him to Patrick, but Carly intervenes. When the camp is attacked by Zombies, David heroically takes a stand and does what he can to save his friend Carly before he turns. I love DEAD RUSH. It has all the elements of a fantastic zombie film and can hold its own against any of its big budget modern contemporaries. The danger and rescue scenes are blood curdling and terrifying and so are the Zombies. Kudos to the screenwriters (Raven Cousins, Zach Ramelan, and Gavin Michael Booth) for coming up with an original script. The director and cinematographer have created a visually appealing film. I particularly liked the use of weaving David's dream sequences into the fabric of the film. I liked the use of out of focus shots, jerky camera movements, slow motion, extreme close ups, low angle shots, flickering lights, and sound effects to create suspense, fear and emotion. I also enjoyed the way David the protagonist was shot. We catch glimpses of him but are mainly exposed to him through his video phone conversations with his dad, video diaries, or when reflected in a mirror. Fans of the Zombie genre will definitely love it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Hard line (2016)(dead rush) 23.2.21 4.2/0. It wasn't that it was particularly badly made, it was just a bit boring. The circular ending was the best bit. A good book comes in useful in this case. D.B. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member terrible disjointed story that made sure you didn't give a shit about a single character. the main character we see through the eyes of is a completely useless waste of skin and would be the first dead in any other horror movie and does nothing to help anyone until the very last before he dies, you cant get on board with his grief over his girlfriend as he did nothing at all about it an let it happen, the only real emotional response we see if from his best friend who again he lets turn into one even tho his friend begs him he still sits there with the gun until hes good and ready, wow thanks guy you're a good friend.... terrible movie which is sad because all the acting accept the main character was pretty decent and the makeup was outstanding but sadly the story was nothing more than disjointed garbage and the trailer portrays the film as an action zombie horror literally going to so far as flat out say through the trailer "time to kill zombies non-stop" this does not happen, there is very little zombie fighting at all in this film at all maybe 5 mins worth through the whole thing. all around this was a fail and i feel sorry for the actors and crew/makeup artists who got dragged into this train wreck.
