This film suffers from an overactive imagination. Almost nothing happens in the opening 30 minutes as Russian soldiers on a reconnaissance mission find themselves in the clutches of re-animated super soldiers. The found footage aspect is far-fetched and almost pointless. Now imagination can be a wonderful thing, but when the cartoon-like creature designs upstage the flat story, there's a problem. You will fall in love with the undead army as each one are masterfully created killing machines. But they would have shined more had there been less of them. Karel Roden does a great job as the mad scientist Viktor but sadly his role is too little too late.
