Vinnie BBQ's Blog Of The Dead: Opstandelsen aka The Resurrection (Denmark/2010)

From Denmark comes this dark semi-short movie (50 minutes) Opstandelsen where a family is gathered at a church for the funeral of Simon, when the dead rise from their graves .

Not much more of a story than that, but who cares? There's enough gore in it for a full length feature.
It's pretty well done with a great dark atmosphere throughout the entire flick. Not much humour to be found in this one, which is a rarity these days where every zombie movie is turned into a comedy.

The zombie are of the cheap kind, not lot's of make-up effort in them but that's compensated with a lot of blood and gore which makes it work anyway and there are quite a few of them.

The shakey camerawork sometimes makes it hard to see what's going on, because it's a pretty dark movie, but somehow it didnt bother me too much, cause it made it just that bit scarier.

All in all, pretty good effort and for the people who found the dvd, take a look at the extras too. There are four pretty gorey music video's in there that are shot by the same director as well.
