Laughable performances.

The New York Times by Dave Kehr
Does little more than add another title to the very long list of movies influenced by George Romero's 1968 horror classic, "Night of the Living Dead."

Here’s a would-be horror film that contains not one ounce of professional pride in its making, not one shred of technical competence. This is one of the worst films of recent times.

Whether this is a good or bad thing depends on just how much 14-year-old boy you've got in ya.

New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
Director Uwe Boll wholeheartedly embraces the film's concept, and with some fancy editing and a pulsing soundtrack, the effect really is like watching a video game.

Much poorly choreographed gunplay, many lovingly rendered head explosions, and some half-assed exposition about centuries-old, immortality-seeking pirates follow, with nothing to recommend House Of The Dead to anyone but the most undiscriminating zombie-movie fans.

Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
There's scarcely a whiff of originality in the zombie horror picture House of the Dead, but Uwe Boll has directed it with enough energy and style that it adds up to passably mindless if grisly fun.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by Liam Lacey
Somewhere between cartoonishly bad for comic effect and bad because the filmmakers didn't really give a damn, The House of the Dead is, at least, unpretentiously dumb.

Based on a video game, far exceeds expectations -- in negative ways that inspire thoughts of less than zero stars.

House of the Dead, sadly, is so bad it's bad.
