Dead Sands

Overview

IMDb R. Tomatoes

In the wake of a viral outbreak throughout Bahrain, a group of strangers become acquainted with each other when they realize that they must unite to ward off the undead plague.

Bahrain... can do better! While I naturally respect the attempt, 'Dead Sands' is a pretty bad zombie flick. Bits of the horror aren't actually the worst I've ever seen, but the filler in between is rather dreadful. The acting is also, to put it kindly, poor, as not one of the cast members stand out sadly. The whole feel of the production is also extremely cheap, which of course can be excused (the sound... not so much) but, still, it doesn't help. It also, at least to me, feels like it's trying way too hard to emulate an American film, to the point it's kinda cringe. The poster looks decent, but that's as far as any positives I have go I'm afraid.
