"Dead Set" Miniseries Review



About.com Rating

The Skinny
  • Acting: B (Strong work all around from the ensemble cast.)
  • Direction: B (Captures both gritty, harrowing horror action and lighter moments.)
  • Script: B (Clever use of setting for both narrative and thematic purposes.)
  • Gore/Effects: A- (Appropriately grisly for diehard genre fans.)
  • Overall: B+ (There's nothing that smells "made for TV" about this thoroughly entertaining zombie flick that will leave you begging for more.)
