A unique take on zombie films. As others have stated, best to avoid describing much as to avoid spoilers. Definitely worth a watch.
I almost stopped watching before it got a third of the way in because it was just SOOO low budget and cheesy. But stay with it! I beg of you, stay with it! It all comes together and makes perfect sense by the time you get to the end. And as the description says, it throws some comedy into the mix. Brilliantly done!!!
one of the best " zombie " flix. top 5 to me,for originality , surprises, and "show must go on " philosophy , like old vaudeville , or Bowie with a lolly in his eye during performance , no matter what ! & no spoiler,but for me , ending scene was almost happy tear-jerking . it shows some kids still grow up respecting&knowing their elders have something to teach-especially this pop with a never quit attitude ! funny&surprising,too-great watch,try it at least. Even if you're more of a purist. All with even a sniff of horror seem welcome on Shudder,for better or worse,with all opinions welcome . Even 1 skull,please tell those of us who enjoyed the film why,not just a zombie-muttered " Meh. "
absurdly funny
:D
