Acting was pretty flat and a lot of the character stuff made no snese but the core idea and production was solid. The idea of slow zombification is terryfing, they could have done more with that. It made me fairly uncomfortable in parts so it succeeds in what it sets out to do as a horror film. Zombie films could renew tension with slow necrosis instead of going for the World War Z fast Zombie stuff. The idea that the infected are still aware could renew fear in a stale genre. Character moments would be more impactful as people are allowed to live for longer, I mean you wouldn't kill a sick person even if the end result is a killer Zombie. I'd give it a 6 but mostly bumping for the unique ideas. 

wow, you just decided to watch it based on a rec huh?  very fast, you must like to seek out new experiences.  Yeah I liked it, was a whole movie based on empathy for the zombie.  Even though i love the sub-genre it does run a bit stale because you know what's coming and the different bent of the movie scared the heck out me.  I'd give it a 6 or 7 out of 10.         

Well it just happened that I keep getting adverts for a film called The Substance and this looked quite like that so I said fuck it I'll try it but if you have more recommendations I'd be glad to hear. In the genre I'd say the most impactful is The Fly and Cabin fever, don't watch the latter if you have food in your stomach, infact avoid it, you're better off.
