In retrospect, I shouldn't have watched this movie after watching Unrest. The previous movie was SO good this one would have had to be amazing just to keep up - needless to say... it did not.
The Good:
From looking at the cover art and reading the brief synopsis on the back I gathered I was in for some zombie children goodness - and the zombie children really were the only good thing about the film. They were amazingly creepy. Their movements, their look - and those eyes - even if they had been standing there doing something completely normal those eyes would be creepy.

The Bad:
The plot was awkward and heavy on gleaning from other/better zombie flicks.
The actors were just not good and were constantly doing things that made you think "why would you do that?" or "why didn't you do this?".
You were supposed to feel sorry for some of the characters - but you just didn't.
You were supposed to dislike others - but you just didn't.
In the end you just didn't care what happened to any of them and ultimately just wanted the movie to come to an end. Blissfully - it did.

All in All:
I really didn't think this was worth watching at all. I also didn't understand what was so "questionable" about this movie that made it impossible to get into theaters except as a part of this film festival. I think the only reason this film was never released was that it was bad.
