Forget Snakes on a Plane, think zombies on a plane, and you have this film in one. Flight of the Dead: Outbreak on a Plane is a zombie film, which begins with a flight from LA to Paris, and ends with a 'flesh-eating' scientist feeding on passengers and crew, spreading on a deadly virus.
This film has everything you"ll need to be entertained. The special effects and imagery are top quality. As the storm gets worse, there are terrific outside shots of the plane surrounded by the storm. When the co-pilot dies in the cockpit, the only view of him in the dark is through the lightening lighting up his face, which is remarkable. Seeing the reflection of the zombie woman coming at the man in the protective suit though his visor is a high-class vision. As well as these, the appearance of the zombie"s looks like a lot of thought has been put in, with yellow eyes and stained faces. There are also visions of blood spurting out of bodies, people being bitten, flesh being ripped from bone, legs bitten off and decapitation.
This may be classed as a sci-fi/horror/thriller film, which of course it is. But there are also some attempts at humour. The nun has her legs bitten off, and we later see her scampering along on her arms in an attempt to kill, one zombie who was killed in his seat unable to figure a way out and spends the entire film trying to grab people. Another aspect that may have you in giggles is when a frail old woman attempts to bite, but has no teeth, therefore cannot cause any harm - "She"s trying to tongue me to death".
Much of the effects in this film are via special effects and visions; there is however the odd scare that will make you spill your popcorn. When the air marshal and cop are searching the air vent for the prisoner, a zombie suddenly pops up from another air vent in front of him. The scene when zombies smash through the mirror to grab people will also make you shoot in the air. As will the final shot when someone appears in the screen suddenly; you"ll have to watch to find out whom. The only aspect found a little disappointing was when turbulence caused an airhostess to tumble onto someone else; the timing was slightly off. If you loved 28 Days Later or any ...of the Dead movies you'll love this film. It's faster and more entertaining and manages to squeeze in scares, horror as well as a few gags. With several mad doctors, brain-dead teens and a screaming nun Flight of the Dead: Outbreak on a Plane is a guaranteed hit.
