As her haunting journey continues, Denise is attacked by cannibalistic zombies, and even her friends at home are affected. Eberhardt's film echoes the Australian thriller The Survivor in its set-up, but its tone is closer to Herk Harvey's classic Carnival of Souls without being nearly as interesting. Cult favorite Brinke Stevens appears briefly in a party scene. Eberhardt followed this uninvolving effort with the intriguing Night of the Comet before making the leap to mainstream films. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi

Bill Gibron, DVDTalk.com
Sole Survivor should be re-titled Slow Survivor. This so-called horror movie meanders along at such a sluggish snail's pace that the elderly laugh at its laborious tempo as they lap it.
