Reddy or not

Warning: Spoilers
Not long after the going ons in "Pulse" the city is in chaos. Leftover survivor try to find safety. Among them Stephen (Jamie Bamber) and his 10-year-old daughter Justine (Karley Scott Collins). Unfortunately for them the child's mother Michelle (Georgina Rylance) has succumbed to the contagion and is now intent on regaining her child from beyond the grave...

Really don't feel like writing too much about this waste of time. Even though the original was hardly a commendable film this straight-to-DVD movie was somehow filmed (almost entirely on a very poorly done blue screen). The plot is tedious and the direction really wallows too much into random scenes and situations. The special effects are several notches below those in the original and the acting is mostly laughably pathetic. The only saving grace is the fact, that the two main characters - Stephen and Justine - actually do a decent job, even though the script and director throws multiple hurdles in the form of stupid and pretentious dialogue. On a plus side there are a couple of really interesting horror ideas wasted in this movie (fatso sex scene, Michelle self-mutilation or the whole idea behind Michelle not being aware she is dead) and for fans of gore there is one very disgusting cat scene. Unfortunately even those plus sides are pulled down in the undertow of bad scripting, directing and an overdose of blue screen.
