Undead?

Has anyone seen this film? Meteorites crashing into Australia resulting in flesh-crazed zombie types.

I've been trying to get hold of it for a while but cant seem to find it... just wondering if it's worth all the bother.

Undead was ok...

I have issues with the stereotypical portrayal of Australians as pretty much all redneck type folk...and this is yet another film to do this.
PLEASE nb: We do not all talk like this, and most will take offense to the assumption that we do.
But that's just a pet hate.

The movie itself has some pretty decent zombies, and good gore.
From research I've done, it seems that this film was made on Australias biggest ever effects budget from a govt grant made to a film school and IMO, it shows...
The storyline is pretty watery, and there will DEFINATELY be some elements of it that you will simply not understand - but I don't think anyone did. You'll know what I mean if and when.
Nice action scenes, and if you enjoy seeing zombies getting shot, then sure, it's all good.
I found that it wasn't very scary... but it's an enjoyable watch all the same.

Your local video store MAY have it on hire...if not, check out ebay - if the prices seem to expensive, get back to me, and I'll cross reference them with local AUS retailers.

i've looked on ebay and i'm slightly dubious as some seem to be copies... and i work in my local video store and let me tell you distribution for foreign films for rental purposes in the UK well frankly sucks arse.

Assuming you're referring to the dvd, I can do that...
I guess whoever's having trouble getting the movie can message me the relevant details if they want, and we'll discuss.
