Hostile tells the story of Juliet, played by Brittany Ashworth, as she tries to survive in the post apocalyptic world. Food and resources are scarce, and at night the “Reapers” come out to hunt for food. The movie starts out strong, with Juliet scavenging.
Things are looking good for Hostile at this point, at least until Juliet swerves off a dirt road and flips her truck, and breaks her leg. This is where the movie really went south. There are long flashbacks revealing her addiction, and her previous relationship with the man who helped save her from heroine.
This would all be fine, except it really broke the rhythm of the movie. What could have been a classic zombie survival movie turned into a strange Romeo and Juliet (at least they didn’t name the male character Romeo) story.
The ending was as bad as it was predictable, and I’m being generous when giving it a 40/100. There are better zombie movies out there, and this is one you should skip.
