Moviegoers are saying
This zombie apocalypse film tests viewers' patience with a cast of unlikeable characters navigating depression and relationship drama amid the undead chaos. While it brings absolutely nothing new to the oversaturated zombie genre, some audiences found themselves genuinely tensing up during the zombie sequences despite the film's obvious shortcomings.

This was a test of my patience with stupid unlikeable characters.

I guess at this point i just watch anything with zombies in it.
aphroodiite ⎊ ᖭི༏ᖫྀFeb 22, 2026Unfortunately, I have nothing good to say. Maybe it was bad becuase I didn’t read the book, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say the book was probably a lot better. Really bad dialogue, classic cheap zombie horror. 2/10. Gonna be very low on my Horror List.
Jmm_15Feb 12, 2026Saying “THE BREAKFAST CLUB meets DAWN OF THE DEAD 04” is almost too easy for comparison, this film starts off from a whisper to a scream in 5 min flat. Some really effective scenes and way darker than you’d expect for more of a YA-geared apocalypse tale.

Clearly a different type of zombie movie. A mixed bag. Some good things. Some bad things. Little to no logic. Good gore. Teen drama. Adult/mature subjects. Stupid moments. Little character development. 2 dimensional characters. I liked it. It’s ok. But not worth it.

What’s mostly lacking is a matter of character-enhancing detail, the kind that would better integrate the movie’s high-concept thrills with its heartstring-tugging melodrama. Soapy’s not bad, but “This is Not a Test” lacks the sensationalism or sensitivity to make it more than a wan misfire.
