City Newspaper's Review

This mash-up of “Cloverfield” and “28 Days Later” purports to be the scary footage that was found after a TV reporter and her cameraman get trapped in an apartment building after the CDC learns about all the inappropriate biting.

It's not the most original horror film set-up, but I thought it pulled off its conceit nicely. There were some decent jumpy moments, and also some unintentionally hilarious spots where the whole theater was bursting into fits of nervous laughter. The exposition parts were a bit clunky, but I appreciated the effort to explain what exactly was going on, and what caused it, versus "Clovefield," where it was just, "It's a monster, and it's destroying Manhattan, deal with it."
