Who agrees that the skateboard story was the worse?

I have a long distance family member that that story reminded me of... He might like it, but not me. They even share the same name!

That was meant to be an homage to video games like Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat/Resident Evil. It had some creative visuals, but...the overall tone was meh.

I think I didn't enjoy it because I don't skateboard. I couldn't empathise with it.

I am sure skateboard guys liked it though.

It was annoying, awfully shot (when the chaos starts you have no idea what's going on half of the time) and it's a bad clone of Safe Haven from 2.

Yeah. Found footage from a GoPro doesn't quite work.

I enjoyed it personally. Had no troubling understanding what was going on and not sure how its anything like Safe Haven?
Each to their own.

Bunch of cultists who use a group of people as a sacrifice/vessel/whatever to summon a demon.

Same thing happens in Safe Heaven.

Yeah but lots of films share the same story, at least the presentation was completely different.

I think the zombies looked cool but that was the only good thing about it. It was slightly better than the wraparound segment, though.

Really? I thought it was pretty great actually. Partly it could be having lived in San Diego by the Mexican border, & traveling many times to TJ, & knowing how accurate it was ( minus the undead lol ). Also I thought the skeleton army as the story progressed were so freaky real skeleton looking, & the special effects were perfect! Looked so what I picture real, reanimated rotted corpse skeletons to look like IMO.

I liked it except for the GoPro footage

I've never fooled anyone. I've let people fool themselves.
