The Girl with All the Gifts update feed
" DVD- 1hr. 51min. First Viewing An original, to an extent, zombie film in an era that has scene some pretty by-the-numbers ones. The Girl with All the Gifts is an effective independent thriller with solid storytelling, quality direction, and a set of strong performers doing excellent work. Newcomer Sennia Nanua, in particular, really lights-up the screen in a breakout role. It does lose steam towards the end, but not enough to deflate the picture.

"The plant zombies and the cities overrun with vegetation gave this similar feeling to the Last of Us and I liked it quite much. "
"In a dystopian future overrun by the walking dead (because of course!), pre-teen Melanie may be humanity's last hope. She's also a second-generation zombie – an offspring of the "hungries" who are being experimented on by a group of teachers, scientists and soldiers, including Glenn Close and Gemma Arterton. The hope is that their behavior (or just their brain stems) holds the key to an antidote. Scottish director Colm McCarthy's adaptation of M.R. Carey's book reverses the classical subgenre'"
"A good refreshing take on the zombie genre set in a post apocalyptic Britain. The country has been infected by a fungal virus which has turned most of the population into zombies nicknamed Hungries. Humanity is now relying on a second generation of hybrid children, that can still think and learn, especially one special girl called Melanie. The movie is well directed and acted. The story is clever and thought provoking with an absolutely banger of an ending. It's also got plenty of zombie action,"
"First viewing - May 25th Best new-to-me film for May I went into this knowing nothing beyond the fact that some people whose taste in movies I respect enjoyed it, and encourage others to follow my example. It's totally worth seeing & I hope others will find it & deeply appreciate it like I did."
“Notes: *Oh I have been waiting for this ever since that trailer! *The cast is a great selection. *The story looks intense and almost like 28 Days Late”
"28/2/17 Imaginative revamping of the old zombie apocalypse story as a group led by soldier Paddy Considine, are trying to find somewhere to survive. Along for the journey is Melanie, a girl who has the infection but could be the key to the future. Shocking yet intelligent with a terrific performance from newcomer Sennia Nanua."
