Die Alone

“Die Alone” is a different kind of zombie movie. Yes, it proudly embraces a number of familiar horror sub-genre tropes. But it puts its own spin on them resulting in a surprisingly fresh and creative feature.

This isn't the scariest zombie movie you'll ever see, and the second act begins to drag as it readies itself for the finale, but if you want a highly original one that makes you feel, Die Alone is flesh worth sinking your teeth into.

The plant-based zombies are impressive creations, but the excessively somber story is a slog as it meanders toward a fairly obvious twist.

[T]here's not much for the material to do with its intentionally evasive method of storytelling.

Well-crafted and acted, the film is worth staying with. Yet despite the superficial novelty of the plant angle, it doesn’t stray far enough from zombie-flick conventions to make a truly memorable impression.

“Die Alone” wobbles on occasion, hitting a few dud notes of tension, but it finds a suitable ending, with Dean saving a bit of opera for the final minutes, finding a darkly poetic way to close the picture.

Horror-thriller Die Alone successfully breathes new life into survivalist tropes while exploring the effects of nature’s wrath in a creatively horrific way.

Moss, for all her experience and gravitas, lends the film a distinct refinement that polishes the rough edges.

The location and timeline of the pandemic are deliberately vague... Consequently, the flesh-eating monsters serve more as a backdrop for a thriller that invites audiences to unpack the clues and discover the truth about Ethan’s past.

Dean crafts a haunting, romantic thriller. This isn’t just a zombie film&#59; it’s a haunting exploration of love, loss, and what it means to hold on when everything else falls apart.
