this movie was right on par with THE VANGUARD: it just wasn't good. it had a good concept, but the execution was deeply flawed. Loaded with pacing problems, plagued by shitty actors and a complete lack of gore, wich is the only thing that could have saved both of those movies. I was enthusiastic and buyed both of them when they came out on dvd and i was sad because i really wanted to like them. The only rewarding feature of the vanguard was the really cool camera work, but the zombie diaries was just dull from begining to end, it failed miserably at creating some sort of tension. a snooze fest. the weinstein should just give them 2-3 millions and re-shoot the whole thing.
