7/10
Decent B grade zombie thriller
17 May 2016
This wasn't terrible, its actually a pretty decent B horror flick. Lots of inventive ideas, and interesting passengers as zombie fare. Its scary in sections and while lacking a budget, any actor you've ever heard of before and going straight to DVD this is better than you'd expect.

The story follows an airliner that gets grounded after one of the passengers begins to exhibit symptoms of a virus, vomits all over a stewardess and then goes berserk. (According to news footage an apartment building in LA has also been placed in "Quarantine" which is a nod to the first film.) The situation gets worse when the plane is sent to an abandoned terminal and then quarantined by the CDC.

As the "rage virus" lets loose the passengers are getting infected one by one (always fun) and fighting to survive. Most of the movie takes place in the baggage sorting section off the runway, the part of the airport we never see and for the most part follows Jenny, the stewardess and George a young boy travelling without his parents.

I loved the set up here with all the assorted passengers; man with ALS in wheelchair, army medic, teacher, young couple, pregnant woman, fat guy, business guy. Its always fun guessing who will live and die. Some decent zombie gore, mostly on the gross out end of the spectrum, snot and drool etc including a severe scene with a needle to the eye. A decent inception story as long as you disregard the fact that assorted animals were allowed to ride in the cabin?? And a clever ending too. 4/12/16
