Not terrible but far from great

In a coordinated attack, an unknown and unnamed faction releases a virus that reanimates the dead. This takes place primarily in the UK, but there are some scenes in various other countries. A news reporter for a major network is brought a video detailing how the virus came to be by one of her sources. Once streaming the video live is complete, she and her coworkers fight to survive in the new world.

This is a low budget movie and should be watched through that lens. If you are a fan of other British produces zombie movies like Shaun Of The Dead or the 28 movies, then do not try to go into this thinking there will be any similarities. They relied a bit too heavily on bad CGI, from fires to smoke to impact wounds to people being torn apart, there are very few practical effects here. The actors are not bad, though the gentleman that play the lead news anchor plays his part way over the top. This movie did keep me watching to the end and I enjoyed the fact that the ending was ambiguous as well.

Overall, I would say this is a decent enough entry into the genre, but there is nothing ground breaking or Earth shattering here.
