Load of rubbish!!

Disturbing yet enthralling

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Three teens find themselves in a town over run with zombies. Deciding to fight back, they go on a punch you in the throat, action packed, non stop ride through the city, woods, and schools. It was very hard for me to even see what was going on in 'Automaton Transfusion' thanks to Steven C. Miller's horrible direction and shaky cam that was all over the place. This is a low budget zombie film that doesn't quite understand what a Zombie film needs to be great, the acting was all over the place as well and the script that was probably written by Miller himself was also unbelievable horrendous to begin with. Plus alot of scenes were dark and couldn't even see anything properly. (0/10)

typical low-budget horror flick, creative but not very original. i bought this movie out of a Walmart $5 bin, not expecting much but i did get what i paid for. Overall story line is good, the graphics were low budget but understandable, and they work with what they had. The cover picture of the copy i bought was a little far fetched to catch attention, but i was amused and entertained by the movie in general. One part of the movie made me cringe and almost turn it off when the Z pulled a child out of the pregnant teen girls stomach and ate it, they used a big band name (Panic! ate the disco) when going to town when we first saw the hoard sprinting down the street. The morgue scene was alright, with the first encounter, but ignoring the fact that when the assistant mortician was being pulled in the freezer on top of a pair of empty pants after supposedly being snapped in half. i enjoy watching low budget movies and this one was entertaining for the $50,000 budget they had. i give it a good rating for the reason that it kept my attention.

Where to begin... the whole movie has this awful jittery look to it, and it's because the filmmakers obviously to post-convert 30 fps down to 24 fps to give it a "film look." It's an epic fail. All the audio was recorded in post, because it all sounds horribly canned and out of place. Imagine a group of high school kids decided to shoot a movie one week. That's what this is. Everything about it is amateur. There's one or two good special effects, but there's no story. Just people running from zombies. One second they'll be in a jeep. Then all of a sudden they're swimming in a lake. It's mind-numbingly bad. They try to throw a stupid story at you about 70 min into it (which is right at the end since it's only 75 min long), and then it doesn't even have an ending. It just stops. One of the worst things I've ever seen.

Unlike what another reviewer says, it does make a difference to me that this was shot on a low budget. I agree the story wasn't so great but quite frankly there isn't a lot more they can do with zombie films. It's a tired genre. The gore and killings were all well handled. I really didn't have a problem with the acting either. Thought the lead actor did a good job (and was hot as hell). No ones acting was bad enough that I actually stopped to thing "thats some bad acting." The ending actually kind of made me laugh. This is a "B" movie and makes no aspirations to be anything else. Bottom line, if you like independent horror movies and aren't done to death with the zombie genre give it a shot.
