I dropped it

Absolutely hated it, it was heavily focused on the family which yes I understand they are the main characters of the movie but I was expecting a different sort a film. It focused on the families issues especially between the married couple, straight out the gate you can tell the married couple hate each other and you don't see what happened to them before they reach the husbands family home when they escaped wherever they just escape from when the zombie out break happened. This announcing issue between the married couple continues to play out throughout the film before I dropped it. I really wanted to like this film due to the fact it's a zombie film from the Philippines and I've never seen a zombie film from that country before. I was excited to to see what filming style they where going use how they would portray zombies in the Philippines, I found it so unique that the zombies could actually talk more like from what I'm guessing was their last words before turning into a zombie, but the film was solely focused on the tension between the married couple and their 2 sons. The husband is extremely traumatized over whats happening for good reason but he starts to become controlling and doesn't want to leave his childhood home despite the fact his own father physically, mentally, emotionally and probably verbally abused him growing up, which makes him absolutely terrified of the basement which we can assume as the audience his father would lock him up down their as a child, even though he has this server traumatic event that happened to him he refuses to leave and find somewhere else to go just in case they could find a better place to live especially for his two children. Both adults are extremely unlikeable especially when you find out they have been both cheating on each other and what makes things worse the wife cheated on her husband with her husbands brother and had his child. So it made the man playing the husband constantly treating his nephew who he is raising like his son like crap. I really disliked how he was towards his son/nephew because it wasn't his fault to who his father is but that didn't stop the man who that poor child thought was his dad treat him horribly, he was essentially sorta becoming like the man he hated his own father. The poor boy didn't know his uncle was his dad but you could tell he started suspecting when his younger brother mentioned that he looked liked their uncle when he was younger when they both were looking at his dads family album. I stopped watching when they uncle appeared not because he showed up just because I had already mentally checked out of the film. I was really hoping to see more zombies & action but right before I dropped it there wasn't that much and it probably picked up after the uncle arrived but I just stopped caring when they family went to the bridge to give it a try to leave and find somewhere else to go and the wife almost go everyone killed.
