Captivating movie !

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Here we go again, yet another zombie apocalypse movie, the words over saturated for this sub genre has sadly become an understatement. If watching a group of survivors argue amongst themselves and shoot the odd zombie for 100 minutes sounds good then this could be for you, otherwise I would pass it by. Acting is reasonable, there are a couple of big names in there and Ashley Sumner is one of the hottest zombie killers to ever grace the screen. However, it's all CGI, of which I'm not a great fan of, and the story - what little there is - is simply boring. Pity they didn't reduce the running time. The sight of a field full of the living dead is one of the few highlights. I'm going to be generous and award this 4/10, just glad that I only paid £1 for my DVD. Any more and I'd have felt robbed!

2 words: Billy ZaneThis movie is obviously trying to cash in on the only somewhat familiar actor in this woefully terrible cast. Apart from the slow moving story, its poor attempt at character development and one of the stupidest sequences I've seen in ANY zombie movie (Mutant/Zombie jumping fish...try saying that with a straight face), it's just....boring!The acting is so low key and bland, that it hardly registers. The dialogue, although having some decent moments, is for the most part just monotone and forced. The make-up effects are somewhat half decent, disregarding a few moments where the zombies looked like they had run through a jam factory and stolen all the free samples they could.I'd watch this once and just forget about it, it's alright if you need something to pass the time.

Despite the very low rating and the other reviews, this was MUCH better than many low budget zombie movies. A minimum of 'dumb blond' moments! Little 'bad acting' that one expects. Little of that fake fighting we've learned to expect.It has decent acting, multiple story lines, a good score, and a somewhat unique story. If you're not looking for wild zombie action out of the block, then the story builds up in a regular fashion.Don't listen to the nay-sayers, this one is worthy of a look.I believe that it deserves at least a 5.0 rating, if not better.

A young militia is all that stands between a coming dead horde and their rural town decimated by the fracking industry.Harrison Smith has said he would never do a zombie film, that zombies are "the NASCAR of horror". His position on avoiding the zombie subgenre was probably wise, as the market is flooded and trying to break through is not easy. As for what he meant by "the NASCAR of horror" is a bit more unclear. Clearly it is meant as a derogatory comment, but NASCAR does happen to be the second-most-watched sport in America, so maybe it is not the insult it first seems.Where zombie films work best, when not just being an opportunity for gratuitous gore, are when they have a sense of satire. The classic example is Romero's "Dawn of the Dead". Does this film have a political message? There seems to be a strong subplot with the fracking mines, but it never quite comes to a head... the punch is pulled.Director Harrison Smith brings in his regular Felissa Rose, this time casting her as a cult member who speaks to God. This is a strong role, and Smith should be commended for bringing Rose back to acting and the horror genre. We also get Billy Zane, the director's best catch since Cloris Leachman. In fact, probably his best one yet.One positive about "Zombie Killers" is how it is aware of its own existence in zombie films, with mention of "those old zombie movies", though direct references tend to be few. One of the most obvious is actually to "They Live", which is not a zombie film at all. But we are made clear that this is our world, not some bizarre film world where the living dead are a complete shock to those around them.The film is decent, and visually very well done, but suffers some obvious problems. The biggest, again, is the uphill fight of being in the zombie subgenre. Although better than the average zombie film, it still carries the stigma. There is also the unfortunate situation with the title. "Zombie Killers" was already taken, which is probably why the subtitle "Elephant's Graveyard" was tacked on. But this presents confusion: is it a sequel? No. Is it in Africa? No. The title makes the casual video store customer wary.
