sci-fi zombies

Posted : 15 years, 1 month ago on 20 March 2009 05:30

i watched this movie a third of the way through before i realized i've seen it before. which is just to say that a lot of it isn't memorable, but the overall movie was good.

basic horror movie plot, lots of people turning into zombies from some sort've disease, a few trying to get out of town and away from it.

its fairly clear from the beginning that this is a comedy/parody and it does a good job being both clever and yet sufficiently gory/scary. although the over the top acting by the main "i've got the weapons because i've seen this coming" character is a bit hard to stomach. hes a wild west sort've guy which a ultra scruffy voice that doesn't suit the baby-face-with-a-beard city-boy-trying-to-look-country person. he's at least tolerable for the rest of the movie, and generally a likable character.

the group finally does make it out town, but then are stopped by a wall that surrounds the entire town. that's a shock, and it won't hurt the movie knowing this...its just an unusual turn to explain what is happening. surprising and deffinately unique.

funny, gory, scary, weird. this is deffinately worth seeing despite some flaws.
