The eagerly anticipated follow-up to the Ford Brothers' African set The Dead, The Dead: India move us to the hustle and bustle of India as the outbreak of the walking dead take hold. An American engineer teams up with a surviving orphan street kid to trek 300 miles across stunning but deadly rural Indian landscapes to the now infested slums of Mumbai to try and save his pregnant girlfriend. The first ever international zombie movie shot in Incredible India, The Dead 2, puts the Ford Brother's unique vision on a far bigger canvas, with breath taking scope, thrilling action and emotional resonance...

A notch less dark, a notch less interesting, a notch less scary. You have to wait long for any action scene and when it finally comes, the director turns on the slow-mo. The relocation to India seems utterly pointless – the first one was greatly helped by its untraditional setting in Africa, which the creators used with skill, but the sequel lacks any proper use of the Indian setting, and the poetics are too similar to the first one. Bugger! If there’s a zombie outbreak in a poor and overpopulated city of an overpopulated country, what I expect is chaos, filth and hordes of zombies everywhere. But instead of that, the only thing pointing to the Indian location are the terrible Indian actors (you almost expect them to start dancing at any moment). But not to be only critical, there are some visually nice scenes and well executed atmospheric sequences here and there, but overall it’s an uninteresting and weaker copy of something we’ve already seen and, therefore, a pointless sequel.

For me, it's similarly mediocre as the first episode, just different locations and different actors, otherwise practically nothing has changed. The pace is classically slower again, the zombies walk like pensioners, anyone could escape from them, I would call such an apocalypse in real life more fun than horror, at least it has a decent technical aspect and a couple of neat gore shots, but still I wasn't too impressed with the film. 55%

The Dead 2: India is not an excellent zombie horror film; there's too much empty space where not much happens. However, the creators stay true to the spirit of the previous film and focus primarily on the story rather than the zombies themselves. There is gore, but it is not excessive. The Dead 2: maintains a human perspective and focuses on the characters, which ultimately leads to the horror element being diminished in the story. But it remains a good film.
