Leave your thoughts about Days of Darkness.
| Maclean's MagazineBrian D. JohnsonUnfortunately, despite its Fellini-esque scale, this misanthropic satire is not particularly funny. It's too cerebral and too smug. |
| Jam! MoviesBruce KirklandDenys Arcand's Days of Darkness have arrived, and not just as a film title. |
| Globe and MailJennie PunterThe final chapter of the trilogy that began with The Decline of the American Empire and continued with The Barbarian Invasions, Days of Darkness has neither that chatty brilliance of the former nor the elegiac emotion of the latter. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn apocalyptic film for those who like to pleasure themselves with bad movies about flesh-eaters. |
| User ReviewSara Si love this movie, it made my boyfriend freak out and gave me a good laugh but made me squerm tooo |
| User ReviewSean OVery good, story ending could have beeen a bit better it was rather a silly ending. |
| User ReviewAidy SImagine finding the antidote to zombies while being sexually assaulted by an angry feminist whilst pissed. This film is what put that thought in my head. Superb. (in an abysmal way) |
| User ReviewHayley Bvery good, surprised by it actually, great cast, great acting and the effects werent too over the top |
| User ReviewDean PI really liked this movie, it's one of the better zombie movies doing the rounds at the moment. Yeah the plot isn't great and nor is some of the acting, but there's some good gore to be had here. Well worth checking out if you're a big zombie fan, like myself. |
| User ReviewK Gthis zombie doesn't take itself seriously, & that's what is so awesome about it. there are actually quite alot of original ideas in this too. you can see them coming, of course, but it really didn't bother me that much; in fact it might have been more endearing. anyhow, for low budget, this was wicked |
