Thoughts on Aquarium of the Dead

ThoughtsAquarium of the Dead brings us another look at the idea of zombies, with them being focused on the sea creatures going outside their normal habitats in search for human blood, with some of the creatures being easy to bat off, like star fish, but other like an octopus being a major threat, going through the vents. We know this is going to be a low budget film, with weak CGI created creatures, which will add to the bonkers side to everything we get to go through during the film, leaving us smiling at the comedy involved, waiting to see what the next creature introduced will be. The location is something different for the zombie worlds, which is the only original thing here, even though this is extremely watchable if you want to just relax and turn your mind off.

Final Thoughts Aquarium of the Dead is an easy to watch low budget sci-fi movie, you know what you are getting going in.
