STATE OF EMERGENCY 2011 (TUBI)

I discovered this on Tubi and it ain't too bad.

This Kentucky filmed thriller focuses on 4 people in a small town fighting for their lives after an explosion at a chemical factory turns some people into crazed, flesh eating zombies.

The film is partially told on flashback so the viewer is filled in on everything as the movie really starts in the middle of the crisis. The film builds slowly and I have read a lot of reviews saying that it needs more action and gore. I disagree.

There are some great scenes of tension as our hero JIm (Jay Hayden) is alone after the death of his girlfriend and trapped in a horse stable. The music is very well done too, and adds to the building horror.

The film will remind fans of 28 Days Later and The Crazies, but then very few films are original anymore. This is a winner in my opinion and with a cast of unknowns, it works even better.

The ending is much different than anything else I have seen in the zombie genre, and to me that works well and is refreshing. I suggest you check this out if you like zombie horror.
