This is one of those movies that could be appealing when the stars align just right, ya know? It's definitely not a good movie, but there are definitely worse B zombie movies. For the most part, the acting in general is alright. There are a few characters that are played by bad actors, but it's not a huge point of criticism for me. The story is good enough; special forces team sent in to retrieve a sample from patient 0 to create a cure for the zombie infection. Where it loses points for me is in the plot. Certain things just happen unnecessarily that make you go "well why the F*** did you do that??" a bit too much. One of the events (or 2 rather) that leads to the conclusion of the movie is just so baffling that you might get whiplash. Like I said, overall, it could be a fun watch on the right night, but don't expect it to become a favorite or anything.
*minor spoiler statement below*
Also, the main characters are wearing the finest plot armor movies have to offer. Seriously, these 2 survive certain death so many times where other characters could twist their ankle and die. Really damages any possibility for suspense pretty early on.

Fun But Full of Tropes. Lots of T&A... Not a "serious" zombie film but a fun watch.
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2015
Campy but fun. Lots of T&A, as you can expect with it set on a college campus. Definitely not academy award material or even TWD material but good movie for a boring Saturday with some pizza and beer. Basic plot has a mad scientist unleashing a zombie apocalypse via unauthorized experiments on a college campus, and a team of special agents and special forces operators go in to retrieve a blood sample from Patient Zero. Along the way there is madness, mayhem, betrayal and tropes galore. Some of the special forces operators are right out of central casting to the point of being absurd. If accuracy matters you will be ripping your hair out. (Since when does the Lt take orders from the Sgt ?) Some stupidity just boggles the mind - for example if you have to retrieve a blood sample essential to saving the world before an air strike why wouldn't you draw multiple samples and distribute them to multiple team members and perhaps store them in something less fragile than a glass test tube. For that matter why wouldn't you bring more than one radio so your not incommunicado when the radio is destroyed. Its not Mystery Science Theatre or SyFy Channel Bad - BUT its definitely campy and clichéd.

Emmanuelle Vaugier and Ed Quinn are better actors than this, not by much, but better. However this movie is just enjoyable, I don't think it was meant to be take seriously , I certainly couldn't. Like all zombie movies this one defies logic, supposedly a continuation of the first House of the Dead movie there is very little to connect it. Anyway Emmanuelle and Ed are trying to find patient zero to get an antidote/vaccine for the current zombie infection and get stuck with a bunch of elite army guys that are anything but, as usual, and most of them are dead before the halfway point. And Sticky Fingaz as the sergeant was just horrible, I am not sure if it was deliberate or he really is that bad of an actor. The movie is certainly up a level or so from the usual Syfy stuff.

Ok, this movie reeked! And it wasn't from Smell-o-vision giving us the oder of rotting flesh!
Incredibly, I saw reviews that said this movie was far superior to the original House Of The Dead. I have never seen the first in this hopefully only a pair of HOTD films, but I cannot conceive of a manner in which a film can be more horrendous. And no, I don't intend to find out!
The movie's flaws are far too numerous to mention and probably have been extolled on at length in various other posts. Believe the other reviewers, they are not exaggerating.
The movie opens with flagrant unneccassary nudity. Unfortunately, this is the high point of the movie! Oh, the plot holes! Oh, the horrible, horrible acting! Oh, the really cheesy sets... Oh, the humanity!
Afficiandos of Zombie movies will groan as one by one every annoying character is bitten and zombified EXCEPT THE 2 "HEROES" of the script. They are repeatedly swamped by the undead, wrestled to the ground, have thier guns knocked out of thier hands, but never receive the fatal infection. But what would one expect from ubermensch scientist/soldier/super agents that can miraculously survive exploding buildings. Oh, and watch out for the deadline of 5 minutes that lasts at least 30 minutes of screen time...
I could go on...
Why 2 Stars rather than 1? My son and I did get a big hoot out of parts of the movie and we got to spend some quality time laughing at how ridiculous the whole thing was...

Pleasantly surprised. Love these characters and lead actors. 'Course, everyone is just as stupid, getting bit, pretending it's not happening, all the usual suspects. Good campy fun that borders on a cult following prospect. I'm not sure the TV version had so much of the naked girl in it that the Amazon Prime version had? I think that was cut out... I actually haven't seen House of the Dead I... so maybe I'll go check that out! LOL

First off, this is NOT a major horror flick. It is pretty much a B-Horror flick. Not the greatest movie ever made but it is entertaining. It has violence, gore, stupid jokes, and of course, some minor nudity. If you like B-movies, then I am sure you will enjoy this. The story is barely there but it has a few good scenes and at the very least, it's worth a watch.

Based on how it started, I thought it was going to be corney and suck. Glad I stuck it through. It stayed a bit corney, but actually had some really good scenes, the occasional plot twist, and a decent ending. Not bad at all.

While this wasn't a great zombie movie by any means, it's way better than the original.

1作目よりはマシとは思いましたが…
Reviewed in Japan on December 10, 2006
1作目を購入していた事もあり、冗談半分で購入しました。前作を観た方ならお判りでしょうが、原作ゲームとはほとんど関係ないシリーズです。まぁ、確かにゾンビをバンバン撃ちまくる内容なんですけれどね。ひとことで言ってしまえば、『エイリアン2』の亜流映画です。勿論予算はかかってないのでB級の域に留まってます。
それでも『DOOM』や『バタリアン4』とかが好きな人にはオススメ出来るのではないかと思います。どうやら『3』も製作する気らしいですし、まずレンタルで一度見てから購入するべきかと思います。
主演のエマニュエル・ヴォージアが前作の女優さんより好みなので、とりあえず☆3つとします。

ゾンビ映画の王道設定を楽しみたい人に
Reviewed in Japan on November 3, 2009
特殊部隊と一緒にゾンビ対策の秘密を入手する為にある場所にへ突入する。。。
ゾンビ映画としては王道的なストーリーです。
1との連続性はかろうじてありますが気にせずこれだけ見ても話は問題ありません。
どうでもいい事で面白かったのは女主人公の服のブランドマークがいつの間にか破れて血がついて見えなくなった事。それまでハッキリ写ってたのに何らかの事情で消さざるをえなかったか、それとも偶然か。
こんな事も楽しめるのがB級映画はいいですね。
