Saw this last weekend...

Total blast! I had a great time with it! Everything from the effects to the score to the acting was great! I like low budget (depending on the film, of course) and this one delivered! My only criticisms are that it follows the original Assault on Precinct 13 super closely and, in the version I saw, some scenes were hard to see. However, I have already pre-ordered this on disc, so can't wait to see it in that medium too!

I’ve been curious about this one for a while and I’ve heard it’s all practical CGI as well. Thanks for the review.

it's some of that overly-splattery kinda FX like the Ash Vs. Evil dead TV show

I worded that one really badly. 😀

A bit late for a reply, but I loved this movie. Call it low budget, but it looked great in my opinion. It had classic effects (some looked a little off, but nothing is perfect).

Also the cast was great and I really liked the concept. I haven’t seen Precinct 13, but if it is similar to this I will have to give it a watch.

Precinct 13 is very similar in plot but not necessarily in style. Remember it was a super low budget film from the 70s. Still, I love both movies!

13 has a banger of a score
