"Just when Michael arrives in Berlin to visit his ex-girlfriend Gabi, a terrible virus starts spreading across the city at a rapid pace, turning people into mindless homicidal maniacs. Much to Michael's concern, Gabi's not home; instead, he meets Harper, a teenage plumber's apprentice at work in her apartment block. Together, they manage to barricade themselves when raging hordes of infected people swarm the building. Surrounded by these thirsty zombies, Michael and Harper have their hands full to survive - and it will take all of their ingenuity to make their way out to try and find Gabi."
Just finished watching this movie about half an hour ago with some friends, and I can't recommend it enough. Great characters, good story. good effects and it's the first movie I've seen in a long time where nothing was predictable. Why can't more movies be this good? Check it out ASAP!

We were scanning Netflicks and came across this. I told Tomas to play it, how bad can it be. We went in with very low expectations. We came out seeing this is a film that is a MUST OWN.
While being only an hour long, it never felt like it was paced too fast. It was well balanced, bringing together a great story with just the right scares. It was a unique look at a rage virus like zombie attack on an apartment complex. Characters were developed, it made sense, some things I've never seen before was utilized here, I just can't get over how good a film this was.

Wow. Two ringing endorsements from two guys who know their horror. I'm all over this one. Thanks.

You're gonna love it Dave. We thought it would be terrible (especially after seeing that super generic cover) but were 100% wrong and glad for it.

It sounded bad, but for some reason I had to see it. I really had to see it.

We really gotta look through all that random stuff more often. No telling how many more gems like this we'll find. This is seriously one of the best zombie movies EVER.

Already added to my queue. Is it subtitled? Doesn't matter really, would just like to know going in.

German with English subtitles. Worth the reading.

I am not a fan of reading subtitles often, but this one is worth it.

I have a weird rule about it actually. If the movie came out before 95, then dubbing is fine, anything after I prefer subtitles. Sometimes I feel things get lost in the translation, especially when you have terrible voice actors.

Well, I would never watch a Kurosawa film dubbed. But I get what you mean.

There are always exceptions to the rule. I wouldn't wanna see a dubbed Kurosawa film either, but stuff like Shogun Assassin and all those old cheesy Gordon Liu kung fu flicks are fair game. Gotta love ridiculous lines such as "Stupid fool you're forcing me to kill you" or "Who the hell teaches you kung fu? Your master must be an ignorant idiot as well!"
