Review – Grey Knight

The premise had potential: a legion of zombie soldiers arises during the Civil War, threatening both sides with its morally-ambiguous agenda. They even appear to have spent some money on the cast, including a brief appearance by Martin Sheen and a surprisingly-not-too-terrible performance by Corbin Bernsen. Unfortunately, the actors must have drained the budget. The script has a good moment or two, but it lacks focus and direction. The worst shortcoming, however, has to be the special effects. The revenants look exactly like normal guys with white greasepaint streaked across their faces. On the scariness scale, that doesn’t rank real high. Mildly amusing
