Flight of the Living Dead, a review by addicted2dvd
Stars: David Chisum Kristen Kerr Kevin J. O'Connor Richard Tyson Erick Avari Derek Webster Plot: Unholy terror is unleashed in the skies when a deadly, genetically engineered virus is released onboard a transatlantic flight to Paris in this heart-stopping thrill-ride of terror! When a scientist on the run from the CIA manages to smuggle a contaminated body onto a commercial overseas flight, the plane becomes an incubator for a quickly growing army of the undead. With a zombie invasion spreading through the cabin, only a handful of passengers remains to fight off their fellow travelers and land the plane before it's too late. Extras: Scene Access Audio Commentary Bonus Trailers Outtakes/Bloopers DVD-ROM Content Closed Captioned My Thoughts: Even when I decided to get this one... I knew it would be one that I couldn't expect much from. So I went into this with very low expectations. And I think it was a pretty good idea I went into it with such low expectations. This is not what I would call a good movie. I was able to enjoy some scenes... but over-all I found it to be a bit lackluster. It really took quite a bit of time to get going. And most of the characters I just couldn't get myself to care about. Also... while I can't put my finger on it... the zombies felt a little off to me. But once this movie got going it had some decent zombie action/gore. But over all it is just an average zombie flick. I can see myself watching it again... but not as often as some in my collection. My Rating Out of a Possible 5 Count: Movie Count: 3 TV Ep. Count: 0 Other Count: 0 Time Started: 12pm (From Month Long Horror/Halloween Marathon: 2010 on October 1st, 2010) Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: The Complete First Season marathon, a review by Dragonfire4. Heavy Metal Cameron discovers a truck loaded with enough metal to build over 500 endoskeletons. Are more Terminators about to be created? My Thoughts This was a very good episode. There were hints of John starting to take more control and make decisions instead of just doing everything his mother said all the time. Granted, his decision was a bit risky and put him in danger. I liked seeing John try to take more control, though I also get why Sarah wanted to run. I also thought it was interesting to see how Skynet was trying to adapt plans to make sure that Judgment Day still happened. And Cameron offered a brief explanation for how the head and body were still working and how they were programed to repair themselves...which does tie back in to the first movie with how that Terminator was repairing himself. It still seemed iffy to me how the body could work when the head was so far away, but it isn't bugging me as much since there has been an attempt to explain. 5. Queen's Gambit A chess contest has the potential to link the Turk and Skynet. Meanwhile, the missing Resistance Fighter appears. My Thoughts This was a really good episode. I think the potential link between the Turk and Skynet made sense. I liked that Sarah still had some..compassion and didn't want to just start killing everyone who might possibly be connected to Skynet in the future. Cameron was there for that..lol. Anyway, the episode was really good and I liked the added connection to Kyle. At first I was surprised that Derek didn't know more..but then it made sense once I thought about it. 6. Dungeons and Dragons Derek's consciousness shifts between his injured state in the present and the future he already knows to be true. My Thoughts Another really good episode. I liked seeing bits of the future and what Derek experienced before he traveled back in time. I'm wondering if something happened to make Derek distrust Cameron, or if he just feels that way because she's a Terminator. I'm also wondering some other things now too and I'm anxious to finish the last episodes. It will be hard for me to wait to finish them up. lol. (click to show/hide) I'm really enjoying this show and I'm glad I decided to pick up the DVD set.
