Toxin

Still searching for a good horror movie from 2014.....2 stars or less after 22 movie reviews....wtf

Toxin is not as bad as Flesh Wounds and this is the only good thing I can say about it.

So lets begin: they pretty much covered all the basic moves in a zombie/action movie, and if one is familiarizated with this kind of films, the road will be straight with no bumps ahead. Nothing new whatsoever, just that so tired formula, applied over and over again, that I fail to see how this could even be put in the category "we all have to start somewhere". For 2014, even with a minor budget, this is bad, this is too low to be noticed by anyone and if so, I doubt someone will actually see any good in it.

Therefore my advice, unless you are a huge zombie devourer, look elsewhere. Lately some better zombie movies came out, like: Open grave, The returned, even Cabin fever 3.

Cheers!

Right, well I was lured in by the promise of zombies when I sat down to watch "Toxin". And boy, was I disappointed with this movie, so much in fact, that I think I made it just about halfway through the movie.

Not only is this movie awfully devoid of zombies (sure, there were some angry people running around with theater blood on their faces yelling and growling at people), but it was also incredibly boring and had a really dull storyline.

The movie brandishes "Millions infected, countless dead". Yeah, where exactly?

It should be said that the performances in the movie were so-so, nothing overly impressive here, and truth be told, then I have seen worse elsewhere. But when it comes down to it, then the actors and actresses had absolutely nothing to work with here script-wise or storyline-wise.

This movie was wooden and horribly forcibly scripted. And there was nothing enjoyable or entertaining to be found here. It was a struggle even just to get to about halfway into the movie, and I must admit that I dozed off every now and then.

If you enjoy zombie movies, then stay well clear of "Toxin".
