Battle of the Damned is a 2013 American science fiction action horror film written, produced and directed by Christopher Hatton.

The film stars Dolph Lundgren, Melanie Zanetti, Matt Doran and David Field.

They meet up with Gatling, who reveals to Reese that his mission is not only to take Jude home, but to kill anybody that can whistle-blow on the outbreak.

Neil John Buchanan of Starburst gave the movie eight out of ten stars and wrote, "Forget The Walking Dead, Battle of the Damned takes the genre back to its grass roots of horror.

"[3] JoBlo.com rated it seven out of a possible ten, saying, "Well shot, action packed, with most of the cast being competent (I loved Melanie Zanetti), Battle of the Damned hit the trashy pleasure spot!

Sure the middle section got bogged down a bit, the budget constraints sometimes showed, the shaky cam was annoying at times and Oda Maria's top staying on was a travesty (there was no other purpose to that role), but on the whole Lundgren + Zombies + Robots + Mayhem = ALL GOOD!

"[5] Nav Qateel of Influx Magazine rated the movie C+, and wrote that "putting the many faults aside, it still had its moments, and ultimately entertained, thanks to some good acting, not bad action and silly zombies.

"[6] Ben Bussey of Brutal as Hell wrote, "While it sadly lacks the budget to really do justice to its madcap vision, it doesn’t neglect to bring us a likeable cast and plenty of breezy banter.

"[7] Among the more negative reviews of Battle of the Damned, Brent McKnight of PopMatters rated it three out of a possible ten, and wrote that "the absurdity wears thin and you're left to rely on things like story and character, and there is very, very little of either going on here.

"[8] Patrick Bromley of DVD Verdict ruled it "not great", and wrote, "Some decent special effects and the presence of Dolph Lundgren make it watchable, though it's mostly for non-discerning genre fans.
