Editorial Review:
Description:
A group of young environmental activists become ravenous, unstoppable zombies when a forestry company's genetic experimentation goes disastrously wrong. Sheer terror can’t pump enough adrenaline through these bodies to help them out of this remote forest in this gruesome tale of horror. Severed stands heads (and other body parts) above the rest!

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Better than the average B-Movie...
All in all, a solid B-horror movie, with both its good points and bad.
BAD: The boss' son is too whiny, and you'll want to punch JR Bourne's character Carter, who does a passable imitation of the predictable horror movie "panicky guy" (think back to Bill Paxton's character Hudson in Aliens and his "Game over, man!" complaining, and you'll have a pretty good idea). Also, the blood is really lame - more of a slime than a liquid. Given that there is an abundance of blood in the movie, ... Read More
Rating:  - unbelievably bad
I'll give the film makers an A for effort but the execution...F. This film was frustrating because the characters did everything, EVERYTHING you are NOT suppose to do while fighting for your life during the zombie appocalypse. Chalk this one up as a cautionary tale. BLAHHH!
Rating: - A good enough premise but not enough to rise above the dreck that is out there.
Severed was a good enough premise, but some of the mpovie doesn't make sense. One of the most glaring is when the zombies grab the guy (forgot his name) who was "like a son" to the leader of the survivors. instead of feasting on his entrails, they decide to carry him off as if to pack him away for the winter. This let me know that the guy was going to somehoe get away from 2 zombies, and come back later and force the leader guy to make the hard choice of having to kill a kid that was like a son to ...

Rating: - So close, and yet so far.
Severed: Forest of the Dead (Carl Bessai, 2005)
Severed had the potential to be one of the great new-guard zombie flicks; it's got everything a truly great zombie film needs. And yes, for some reason, it just didn't take. I'm still trying to figure out just what went wrong.
The story: a big foresting company is having problems with protesters. Meanwhile, their pet scientist Carter (JR Bourne of The Exorcism of Emily Rose) is working on a growth serum that will help the trees ... Read More
Rating:  - A Surprisingly Good zombie movie!!
There have been many boring zombie movies. However, this is not one of them. Severed has realistic special affects and decent actors as well. Carter is the coward of the movie. I rate this horror movie with 4 stars. I left a star off due to a weak ending. Don't miss severed!
