A New Look At Zombies!!!, March 24, 2003
Seen them all... All the zombie flicks... Romero is king... Fulci is awesome... Argento rules... I know what's good. This film was great! I read some of the other reviews before I purchased this film and almost passed it by. Other than this flick, I have seen and own every zombie and cannibal film available. This movie isn't scary. The gore factor isn't as you would expect for a zombie film... don't get me wrong, there's gore... That's not what this film is about. "I, Zombie" describes the process of actually turning into a zombie... how one becomes isolated from society and slowly decays (physically and MENTALLY). I love all the zombie films, but this one takes it to a different level. A MUST for zombie fans. If you want a really scary movie or a lot of gore, search elsewhere.

I, Zombie: A Chronical Of Pain, October 5, 2005
Basic Plot: The main character is hiking in an unknown area when he is bitten by a strange and obviously very ill young woman. He is forced into the lifestyle of a hermit when physical and mental decay sets in, as well as a strong urge to kill others and eat their bodies.
With a decent amount of gore (including a few scenes that'll definitely make you squirm), above-average acting for a low-budget B-movie, and an undeniably original and fresh concept for a zombie flick, "I Zombie" certainly deserves a rental. A purchase, on the other hand, you should think twice about. I found the storyline to be a bit tedious and the overall feel of the film to be very amature (which I suppose could be a good thing for some B-fans, but this was almost student-film level). It's irresistible to any zombie fan such as myself, and I'm glad I saw it. Originality is very intriguing to any viewer, and this certainly has that. But it doesn't have much more to separate from any other straight-to-DVD horror flick. And who says that's a bad thing?

A slow, yet well paced look at a Zombie from it's own point of view, August 25, 2005
This film, while slow in pace, gives the viewer introspective into the zombie's own existence. A well crafted character driven story of loss (on more than one level) and self loathing wrapped tightly in a fine package of well placed gore.
Visually this low budget film comes off quite well, the make-up isnt hokey. If you are a zombie fan and you like something beyond just a gore fest try it.
