“The Zeme” (* out of four) was a grade-Z horror thriller about a developer (Nick Preston) who relocates his family to a remote island where an ancient curse that permeates the land takes over his soul and turns him into a vicious killer. Preston’s performance is so awful it almost makes this worth watching for a few minutes for a few unintentional yuks but don’t take that recommendation too closely to heart. Surrounding cast is pretty subpar also so he shouldn’t feel too badly. Described as a mix of “The Shining” and “The Vanishing” in its press notes but that’s a bit of an overstatement.
