Doomed Trailers

In the future, death row criminals are given a chance to gain a pardon, on a "survivor" style reality show, only to find the island is full of zombie ex-contestants. (It's as bad as it sounds)

Reviews
Blucher One of the worst movies I've ever seen
Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
justin_edlagan Allow me to save you $8 by offering something you can do at home that is just as entertaining as watching this movie. Go get a load of whites and throw it in your dryer. Now, add in one red sock. (Make sure everything's dry so you don't end up with a bunch of pink laundry.) Now, hopefully you have the kind of dryer that has the clear window in front. If you do, start the load and watch the laundry spin around. Every time you see the red sock pretend to be scared.That's it. That's the equivalent to seeing this movie. As entertaining as watching your laundry dry and every bit as scary as a red sock. and not to mention the total butchering of the zombie genre.Giving it a 1/10 is actually really really generous.
drhemp I bought this on DVD from Tesco for £1, I'd never heard of it and I was fooled because it said in the tradition of 28 Days Later. Well, it certainly was not in the tradition of 28 Days Later, in that, 28 Days Later is a brilliant film, well acted, good script and excellent special effects, whereas this film has none of those attributes.I'm still glad I bought this DVD as I didn't know they still made films that were this bad, and when I say bad, it was so bad, it's inspired me to write my first ever review on IMDb. I can honestly say it is one of the worst films I have ever seen in my life.Where do I start? The acting is more wooden than Pinocchio, I mean I know it's a low budget film with a very poor script, but you'd think they could at least find one member of cast who could act. The special effects are really awful, I cannot think of a film in recent times with such bad special effects, come to think of it, I can't even think of a film since Plan 9 from Outer Space with such unconvincing effects, but at least that film was funny in its own way. The background music in this film is particularly annoying, as are the computer generated effects, which look like they may have been produced on an old Atari. The plot is dumb beyond belief.The only fascinating thing about this film is to know what kind of people made it in the first place? What on Earth possessed someone to make such a bad film, let alone distribute it? I can only assume it was made by someone with a bit of money (though evidently not that much) who wanted to be a movie maker. I think next time, lend a camcorder to some kids at the local comprehensive school, give them £200 and ask them to come back in a week, I'm sure they'd produce something better than this truly awful film. A real stinker!
ultra_tippergore Doomed is a cheap straight-to-DVD movie about a group of convicts participating in a Survivor style reality show. They must fight against evil zombies to get the multi-millionaire reward. The movie is not original at all but its pure action all the way so its entertaining. OK, you don't have to analyze it because this is a complete no-brainer. Apparently the island were they are "playing" was nuked some years ago... but its in very well shape, with lots of green vegetation and fresh air.... The worst part is the video-game style edition and the lack of gore and nudity...with lots of guts, blood and tits this one could be a good movie. There are some really crappy cgi fx (CGI blood is something i hate) but Its worth if you don't have nothing else to watch. A very generous 6/10
bloodmane This is one of those movies where I wish I could get back the chunk of life I've wasted. I did get a little nostalgic for the red-shirted security extras from Star Trek TOS while watching this. When I get a movie like this, the only recourse I have for entertainment is noticing the abundant flaws. I found myself looking at shadows in what was supposed to be total darkness, the thrilling tilt-a-whirl camera effects, the awesomely runny blood, and wondering who was sailing those other sailboats. Still the film made it to video so I applaud all those who worked on it for making it successfully to market.I think I'll throw on Blood on Satan's Claw next, a good bad movie.Doomed ... so very aptly named.
