A thriller-horror flick based on the computer game of the sam name, this thing has my Cheesey Scale written all over it. I'll start by saying that they do manage the horror effect without heaping on vats of gore and entrails; there's a decapitation and a few people getting cut up, ut much of it is suggested, with cutaways just before things would otherwise get rather messy. No sacrifice in the suspense just the entrails

Okay, now for the nitpicking (and ain't that just the fun part?). First off, things revolve around the usual secret research facility and an escaped virus, and in there would be the first problem. A room sealed so air can't even escape, yet the virus is spread through the venitlation ducts. What, no filters or bio-scrubbers in them? Makes you wonder who built this place, but then the hazzard would have stopped inside that one room and no movie, so let's move on.

Okay, so if the computer was following procedure, then for such a big bot in such a secret facility, wouldn't the corporate guys demand it have an uplink to their off-site offices? You know, so that when the computer shuts things down and thinks it has a very good reason, that it would then message the Suits about the details instead of leaving them in the dark. That way, the guys they'd send in would know what to expect or better yet wouldn't need to go in at all. Not what your average mony-grubbing paranoid corporation would forget, but then again we wouldn't have a movie.

We have the expected military-style squad who all remembered to take their stupid pills that morning. Now, I'm not military, but it would seem to me that when in a short hallway into a dangerous area, once you have the opposite security door open the first thing you do is jam it open and move yourself on through, then call the other members of your squad on after you one man at a time. You don't bring all five guys on in at once, stand there waiting for something to happen (it's only 20 to 30 feet of hallway lit up like a christmas tree), crouching with your guns like you know what you're doing, then watch the doors slam in and the defences cut you to ribbons (literally). Kind of stupid for supposedly professional military types.

All that aside, you get to watch the walking dead in a secret lab so what more could you ask for in a good cheesey flick? On my scale, this thing cheeses out at about a Motzarrella.
