Reception


Tex Hula of Bloody Disgusting gave the film a score of 3/5 and, while critical of aspects like the acting and editing, called it "pretty freaking good" and concluded, "Forest of the Dead might not be the next Night of the Living Dead or Evil Dead or even The Dead Next Door, but it does share a great deal of brotherly bond with those films. They were all made outside the system by a group of people who were looking to entertain themselves and a very lucky audience—and entertain them they did." In a review written for CHUD.com, Ian Arbuckle gave the film a score of 3/10 and opined that, while Forest of the Dead did have an "admirable" amount of gore and showed potential and tenacity, it was otherwise an "awful movie" that was "shot in a carnival of different exposures, with unfunny jokes and bad acting." Steve Anderson of Film Threat condemned the film, writing, "This thing is only scary in the sense that, when you're done watching it, you're terrified that it may not come out of your DVD player and you'll be stuck watching it for the rest of your life." Peter Dendle, author of The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia Volume 2: 2000–2010, was similarly dismissive of the "tedious" film, noting, "It's all pretty unredeemable."
