Following a deadly viral outbreak, private military soldier Max Gatling leads a handful of survivors and a ragtag band of robots against an army of the infected.

I suppose that it was only inevitable that one of the aging 80’s action stars would star in a zombie movie considering that five years ago Steven Segal stared in a vampire movie called Against the Dark.
A good rule of thumb when it comes to the individual work of the aging 80’s action stars is that you should always think twice before hiring any of their work from your friendly neighbourhood DVD store, especially when they are the primary star in the movie because in my opinion a lot of their work can be a little hit and miss.
The use of the robots in this one was an interesting touch by the filmmakers but I’m not a big fan of super-fast zombies in movies, I’ve always thought that slower zombies where more threatening.
