Months after a plague has turned 90 percent of the world into flesh-eating zombies, a band of survivors tries to make it to the coast where they’ve been told a boat will take them to safety on a plague-free island. The details may be slightly different, but the plot will sound familiar to anyone who has seen a zombie movie in the past decade or so. What makes this a cut above the rest is the cast, lead by Ving Rhames, who all bring an infectious enthusiasm to the scenes: they look like they, too, think zombie movies are cool. The effects are pretty good, too, although some of the zombie makeup looks like it was purchased off the shelves of the local Spencer Gift Store. The big surprise the survivors find waiting for them at the dock at the end of their journey, is worth the wait.
