Knight of the dead review

I normally don't make reviews about movies. The reason I decide not to do movies, is because I find that I don't have the experience judging them. Mainly because I just don't know when people act good or bad in movies. But this movie made me drop everything I did, and set me to make this review, so that nobody ever tries to make something like this again

 

The premise: Knights end up in a valley overrun with zombies, while trying to escord a priest who also carries the holy grail. Now, I hear you think: how can a movie that has this premise be bad? It sounds awesome.

 

Lets begin with the thing that can make or break a movie: the acting. Remember how I told that I normally don't know if the actors are good or bad in it? Well, if even I can see that these actors suck, then you did something wrong. The actors in the movie never show any emotion, ever. Its like they just don't care for their performances at all

 

But I could have forgiven them that, if it was not for the most stupidest faults the director made in the story. At the begin of the story, the knights have to go in a cave (that leads to the valley with zombies) because otherwise the raiders they encountered would kill them. But tell me: why didn't the knights wait for a while, and get out of the cave. I mean, they have all the opportunities. Even after they find out the valley is overrun by zombies, they still choose to cross the valley. WHY?!

 

It would kinda make sense if their was no other route to come at the destination, but the only reason they went inside the cave was because they had no choice. So that means that there has to be another way to get where they want to go. I mean, just let rocks fall, to block the way the knights came in the valley.

 

This is something that this movie does wrong SO much. And with the cave isn't even the only time this happens. For some reason, nothing gets explained in the movie. Also later on: when the knights have to stand guard for the zombies. But instead of standing guard, they run into the field to kill zombies, who are like hundred metres away, and didn't even see the hero's. Everybody, even knights from the medieval times, would not do that. And its never explained WHY they ran to the zombies in the first place

 

Add fight scenes were the cameraman seems to get an epileptic attack, story that often doesn't make sense, the ''go without me'' cliche matic scenes (and more cliche scenes) cheap budget, horrible acting, and you understand why this movie has only a 3 out of 10 at IMDB.

 

And its a shame that this movie is so bad, cause it has one of the best premise I heard for a long time.

 

One of the worst movies ever
