It's okay. The effects are decent and you get the idea that it's post apocalypse, does a good job there. The head vampires are honestly not that scary or tough and I can't believe they haven't been overrun by the others by now. The thing I have SUCH issues with, please learn how to actually shoot a gun. They waste so much freaking ammo on one vamp that would only take one shot to the head. Entire magazines are gone through for one stupid vampire. Also, when your walking down a quiet hallway, trying to sneak through a place or find someone, what's with making all the stupid noise, and start having conversation halfway into it. Half the the time I'm thinking, okay these people deserve to die for just how stupid they are.

The rating is troll worthy. It is so boring. It is literally like watching paint dry. All characters are badly written and has no motives for what they do. They threw away logic for plot which doesnt help. They so much directing mistakes that it isn't funny. More than one scene a person put their finger in a cage with a vampire who forgets she is vampire. The main plot is also dumb.
