Negative Positive
Title: Beyond bad
Review: I figured House of the Dead wouldn't be anything special when it was released, but man oh man, it was worse than I could have ever fathomed. Filled with terrible acting, plot holes galore, a poor script, poor direction, and incoherent action; House of the Dead isn't even one of those movies that's so bad it's good, it's just plain bad. The flashes of shots from the Sega video game that inspired it are completely unnecessary to say the least, and the look of the film as a whole is just plain dumb. Poor Jürgen Prochnow (Das Boot, In the Mouth of Madness) is stuck in the film as the captain of the boat (his last name is Kirk, hardy har) and Clint "brother of Ron" Howard is his perfectly weird mate, while Jonathan Cherry (Final Destination 2) is the only other recognizeable actor in this whole mess. Horror and zombie fans, this movie isn't worth a look one bit, it's easy to see why this was laughed out of theaters.
Is the review positive or negative?
