Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Aug 24, 2012
Ultra-gory horror comedy squanders its intriguing premise of crime-stopping vigilante zombies with its uneven execution. Go to Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Aug 24, 2012
2/5
The film is a solid 15 minutes longer than it really needs to be and more annoying, The Revenant feels as though it longs to be an American riff on Shaun of the Dead. Go to Full Review Sara Stewart New York Post Aug 24, 2012
2.5/4
About 30 minutes too long and somewhat clumsily executed, this zombie's-eye-view story still manages to evoke the comic and splattery spirit of the best '80s cult horror flicks. Go to Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Sep 20, 2023
3/5
It toys with some clever concepts and pulls off more than other low-budget entries into the subgenre accomplish, though the script and overall vibe feels amateurish and sophomoric, intentionally aiming to be abrasive and coming across as childish.

D. Kerry Prior's limited experience mostly lies in SFX, but you wouldn't know it from what is perfect comedy timing. Go to Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures Oct 6, 2012

g j @g.username Mar 21, 2024 Disgusting enough in the details to add something original to this kind of horror film. A bit like American Werewolf in London with more modern special effects. The comedy doesn't really land but does at least manage to maintain a consistent tone and energy throughout. See more Primo 1 @Matou Jan 10, 2022 I happen to stumble by chance on this movie playing on cable. It brought me back to the late 70's & 80's, remembering the days when B horror movies were simply a lot of fun. When directors, despite the budget would crank out some great gems. See more Apr 15, 2020 Delicious B vibe with crude humor and the is the blackest of comedies. I've watched this movie 5 times with new people just to watch their reactions. Highly recommended. See more Oct 17, 2016 Una de las mejores y más originales historias de vampiros - zombies de los últimos años. See more Jun 1, 2016 Very funny then gets very dark. Aside from some awful cgi bullet wounds, a brilliant movie. More violent than The Revenant. It has one thing that most movies welch on, a cool ending. See more May 13, 2016 Sick and fun horror / dark comedy about a dead soldier who has become a revenant (sort of a cross between a zombie and a vampire). It gets pretty dark, but it sure is fun.
