I went into this movie not knowing anything. I am glad I didn't - not really a fan of zombie films, but this came from a very different perspective and appeared a lot more realistic as it markets itself on intensity, rather than splatter and gore, which I actually preferred as it was a lot more subtle.
It is a movie that maintains the audience's attention by stringing you along on the edge with tension and suspense from beginning to end. It does a pretty good job of maintaining this grip even without the standard horror elements of slasher flicks.
I am aware of some very over critical reviews as it is based on a novel, but not knowing anything about it, I was pleasantly surprised and it exceeded expectation.
Solid 7.
