Review of Goal of the Dead

I always like to see zombies in film especially when someone tries to do a new scenario I would otherwise not be very interested in. Benjamin Rocher directs the first part of this French zombie film and he is no stranger to this sub-genre. He also directed a pretty awesome film called The Horde. The acting here is nice and I enjoyed all the characters. I can see why this is considered a mixture of 28 Weeks Later and Shaun of the Dead. I thought it was an interesting idea that they split it into two parts like an actual soccer game. This is quite gory which I love and they even come up with a few original kills. I don't really like the whole vomiting thing the zombies do as it just looks ridiculous. I do like the vicious relentless zombies though. There are some good little twists and turns throughout. It has a few extra scenes during the credits. I actually really enjoyed this and thought it was pretty funny. If you like soccer and zombies you will probably enjoy this film.
