Day Of The Dead (2008) 5/10

Starring : Mena Suvari, Nick Cannon, Michael Welch, AnnaLynne McCord, Ving Rhames
Director : Steve Miner
Running Time : 82 mins

The small town of Leadville, Colorado, is sealed off by the government and military when it is discovered that an epidemic similar to the flu is spreading through the town. However, when Corporal Sarah Bowman (Suvari) takes her mother to the hospital she discovers that the illness isn’t flu but is in fact turning people into flesh eating zombies.

Although this has all the elements of a good zombie movie, the casting truly ruined this for more. Nick Cannon turns everything her touches to crap, and the lines he was given really didn’t help his cause. As for Mena Suvari as a Corporal in the military, I just found this about as believable as the fast moving, ceiling crawling zombies that this movie portrayed.
