During Thailand's WWII involvement, a Japan-engineered chemical weapon creates a voracious superhuman horde of Thai soldiers leaving a blood-soaked path of ultra-violence and destruction. Yet the greatest victims are the abject undead themselves. Friendships, dreams, and lives devoured... nothing remains.

The trailer looked good for this one so I grabbed on blu ray as there was no other alternative. The gore looked good, the zombies looked good in a Far Eastern fast movie Korean zombies go.

It has a lot of good elements. Basically, those fiendish axis of evil Japanese invaders, including an OTT anime style commander, let a chemical/virus loose on the poor unsuspecting Thais. It takes over a close-knit unit of recruits, who all grew up together, turning them into bloodthirsty monsters that kill without thinking and then regret it afterwards. And that is the new element, the zombies cannot control their rage, wiping out their own people, including kids, and then feel awful the next day. Talk about killer's remorse.

There were a few elements I didn't like; turning to dust when reaching a point of karma, still functioning with literally no head, and it did seem repetitive as we went through the same scenario a few times.

But overall a pretty decent effort from the same country that have us Paradise Z and Zombie Fighters. I would give it a go.
