Daylight's End [DVD]

great movie there not really zombies in this movie more freaker's in the game days gone. good story line

Decent action horror movie about zombies starring Dom's little brother, Johnny Strong and the Russian spetsnaz guy who shot his friend at a gun range in Texas.

I just watched this and felt the need to review based on some misleading comments from other reviewers here on Amazon. This movie exceeded my expectations, but you do need to have the right context going in - compared to other low-budget, direct-to-video options, this movie is a gem. Compared to larger-budget Hollywood films, it still stands up ok but is definitely not in the same league. So here are a few things to consider which might help you decide if you want to give this a try: 1. Do you insist that all zombies must follow the Romero/Walking Dead rules, i.e., headshots are the only way to kill and they are slow shamblers? If so, skip this one. However, if you enjoy "zombie"-esque movies which have different, but consistent, rules, you might like this film. 2. Do you appreciate movies that use realistic gun handling and combat tactics? If yes, you will definitely enjoy this one (and if you are a gun buff, you will appreciate the use of a lot of nice firearms that are often overlooked, including the hero's sweet M1A SOCOM, multiple 1911's and a wicked bullpup shotgun). 3. Do you prefer zombie movies where the cast spends 80% the screen-time hand-wringing over the plight of humanity and the meaning of life in the new zombie-infested world? If so, skip this one. If you like lots of action and realistic combat strategy, give this one a try. 4. Lastly, are you willing to forgive weak (but not bad) storyline for strong, believable action, above-par (for the genre) acting and good production values? If yes, this might be your movie. The most important thing to keep in mind is that this is really an action movie set in the "zombie" apocalypse rather than being a horror movie with some action. I agree with other reviewers that the story could have been better, but the other elements made up for this weakness.

Great movie about a virus out of control turning people into vampire-like beings. If you like to see different firearms in action this movie is for you. Some of the conversations about the airplane were not in the movie but you will catch that. The action scenes in this movie were excellent. It will give you an idea of which firearms work best and which ones you should only use in case you run out of ammo for the good ones. Worth watching.

Great movie. This is the best zombie/ post apocalyptic movie out there.

As a fan of Johnny Strong, I was patiently waiting for this movie's release. I watched it 3 times in the first week it was out. It has a very gritty and dirty feel to it as if it was filmed back in the 80's. The lead man is a real life gun guy, knife maker and has a black belt in Jiujitsu. The action, gun handling, and tactics are amazing. Our hero is your classic "lost everything he loved" type who is basically traveling across country killing as many creatures as he can. The story could have been a little better, but everything else makes up for it. Definitely more action than dialog. There is no shortage of ammo or cool guns. This movie has a "cool" factor of 11!

Lance Henrickson has been in some really great movies. This is not one of them. Plot holes, bad writing, horrible direction, I only watched it because I'm a huge fan of Lance's. I recommend NEAR DARK if you want to see him in fine form. I suppose he was desperate for money or something with this one. I'm not sorry I watched it because it filled some time while I was shelling peanuts but I don't think it was very good.

I initially bought this because I am a fan of Lance Henricksen's films and it was touted as a great direct to video gem. Yes, it is on the high end of the B movie spectrum. Yes, it is entertaining and not a bad way to spend an hour or so. In turn, I believe they committed almost every movie cliche they could get their hands on, action and a few horror. The plot is weak, there are holes in the story line you can drive a mack truck through and the acting is all over the board on the bad side of the spectrum, from over acting in some scenes to pretty general bad acting in others. The main antagonist looks like a pro wrestler with orangutan teeth rather than the traditional vamp fangs. I really do not understand how Henricksen's experience did not rub off on the less than seasoned actors. This movie had potential to be a great low budget action/horror film but fell way short. It is still eons better than a lot of the Syfy produced wastes of celluloid.

Hallo, Ich muss mal eins klar stellen, versteh die ganzen schlechten Bewertungen nicht ? Ok, mag sein Low-Budget Produktion, aber einfach ein geiler Zombie Film, für Männer gemacht, derbe Action non stop ! so muss ein zombiefilm sein ! Hab keine Minute bereut ! Werde mir den auf jedenfall bei Amazon Video kaufen !!

would recommend

A movie worth to watch. If you enjoy horror movies, this is the one

langeweile und kein ende

Genau so muss es sein wenn die Zombie Flitzpiepen aufmüpfig werden. Immer schön draufhalten und wegballern die Spinner. Nicht nur lange Rumlabern oder per Nahkampf unnötig Energie verbrauchen. Gefällt mir sehr gute diese Endzeit Inszenierung. Das Ende hätte man zwar noch etwas spektakulärer gestalten können aber zum Glück keine Lachnummer wie bei Pandemic.
