“F.E.A.R.” (*1/2 out of four) was a joyless horror melodrama set in the future in which a terrifying pathogen has been released and one family (Marci Miller, Jason Tobias, Danny Ruiz, and others) have to fight to stay alive when an onslaught of zombies appear on the horizon and threaten their safety. Dour and grim story drifts through all-too-familiar terrain without much conviction or invention. Viewers would just as well watch an episode of “The Walking Dead” instead. Byetheway- the title stands for Forget Everything And Run which perhaps the cast and filmmakers should have taken to heart.
