(I looked but didnt see a thread. This is absolutely hilarious. I put it up there with other Brit classics like Shaun of the Dead and Severance (the latter isnt a zombie flic but very damn funny)

I enjoyed this one too. There's a lot of funny gags throughout. And Pussy Galore is in it!

It looks a lot like Shaun of the Dead, which is a good thing as far as I'm concerned. I just hope it isn't too similar.

The retirement home scenes in particular look amazing.

This was pretty good. It would have been considerably better if it had focused entirely on the retirement home instead of having the bank robbery, which I thought was pretty dull.

Yeah, the bank robbery could've been left out.

I think it would have been more well-known if it wasn't for the pretty slow beginning. Other than the scenes at the retirement home, it didn't really pick up until the bus.

I forgot to mention it, but I thought the song over the end credits was pretty cute.

Yeah, I was basically wondering if it would pick up at all or not. Thankfully, it did, otherwise I would've shut it off and watched something else.

This turned out to be quite an enjoyable and entertaining zombie effort. One of the biggest pluses here is the fact that this one manages to contain a large portion of goofy and plain hilarious moments that are flat-out funny for just how absurd this one gets while attempting to play it straight. The way the robbery gets botched, the arguing between the family, the zombie assault on the retirement home and the eventual charge down to their escape is all quite funny for how blatantly goofy it's portrayed yet comes off as completely relevant in the way it transpires and ends up making these scenes better by not writing the movie around the jokes but instead working the comedy into the story. This truly funny comedy makes the action all the better as there's a real massive amount of action with plenty of shoot-outs, including the bank-robbery itself as well as the charge through the streets after the retirement home visit to holding off the creatures in the safe house with the hostages being forced into action to save themselves, as well as the different encounters along the escape route in the streets filled with the zombies which just really gets all the high-notes here with the mad-collision of bullets flying everywhere, zombies getting shot to pieces or blasted to chunks and the victims being pulled apart and devoured in nearly everyone of these encounters which makes for a huge gore quotient to go along with the comedy and thrilling action. While these make the film quite entertaining, there's one rather important factor holding this down which is the fact that there's a rather convoluted series of plot-points that seem to go nowhere and bring more people into this that don't need to be there to begin with. These here make this one fall slightly, but overall not enough from being one of the better zombie efforts recently.
Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?

Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs.

Just finished it and it intensified my crush on Harry Treadaway. My mom and Robby have the hots for him too.

More zombie movies need to have older people fighting too.

I wouldn't exactly call it sexy. Well...it's not sexy at all. Harry Treadaway is insanely sexy though, even with a bit of scruff like he had in this, though. Yum.

This was pretty much exactly the kind of movie I expected it to be and I was really happy that it was in this month's ZChest box. It was better than I thought it'd be but it played out in an unsurprising way. My only issue with it is that WAY too many characters survived. If we get a sequel, I'm fine with that. It was a bit Cooties-esque in that it was afraid to kill off more than just a small handful of characters. A lot of the best characters lived though so I'm really hoping we get a sequel just so I can see more of them, lol. The characters totally made this movie. The dialogue was hilarious and everyone was just over-the-top enough to fit perfectly in a movie like this (without being so over-the-top that it was unbearable).

Where this differs from Cooties? It was more violent. A lot more violent. The violence isn't disturbing or played straight (not most of the time anyway) but there's plenty of cartoonishly bloody scenes to keep one satisfied. A lot of the gags in this were pretty great. I think it'd make a good double-feature movie alongside Shaun Of The Dead. Both of them are the kind of movie a lot of zombie-comedies wish they could be. Doreen, Andy, Katy, Ray, and Peggy ftw<3.


6/10 quality, 7-ish/10 entertainment.
