Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Micitype Pretty Good
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Dalbert Pringle So - How do you spell "Aaah! Zombies!"? - B... O... R... I... N... G (to the 10th power!!) Ho-hum!!.... I don't know about you - But, for me - Zombie movies (especially these totally irksome ones that try to add a "cute" comic-twist to their story-lines) have lost their edge, completely. Hey! I ain't kidding! Not only is "Aaah! Zombies!!" absolute bottom-of-the-barrel horror - But the actors are atrociously amateur, the gore effects are b-grade (at best), and its story (as expected) is not in the least bit funny (unless, of course, you are so stoned out of your frickin' head that you'll literally laugh at just about anything).All-in-all - This is the kind of horror-movie junk-food that is best left unwatched... Believe me - It's "Yawn of the Dead"!!
Andy Clark This is a great movie. I saw it cold, unsolicited and had never heard or read anything about it. I just sort of, stumbled upon it I guess.Spoilers- First things first, this is a different movie than any I had encountered before (and since have seen once through Warm Bodies). You follow the characters that have been turned into zombies through some infected soft-serve and beer. Not terribly believable, but still funny, and this film is at its heart a comedy.The way the film shows humans reacting from their point of view (like they are in fast-forward) is genius in my opinion. And drunk humans are able to understand them. Just pure genius.Cinematography was good. The use of black and white and color shots made complete and total sense, and definitely improved the viewing experience.Acting is pretty bad with some of the ancillary characters, but they take on an overall B horror movie aesthetic intentionally, so it fits.Don't come in here expecting a special effects blockbuster or a scary story. However, the story was good. I didn't think anything made no sense, which is a rare thing in the genre.Definitely worth the watch, and worth purchasing.
GL84 When a group of friends are accidentally exposed to a strange virus from their beer-laced ice cream at a bowling alley, they quickly realize their superhuman strength and invulnerability makes it perfect for them to battle the hordes of infected people running around town, but a secret soon turns their world upside down.An ingenious new zombie comedy, which manages to invert the usual theme of the zombies being hunted down by the humans who are the main focus of the film to instead have it be about the zombies, who think they've acquired super-powers and treat the normal humans as the infected ones all along, and by switching it between black-and-white for the zombie view-point and a colorized look for the regular world viewpoint. Feels really unique and rather clever, intertwining the two stories together rather than separate films. Not really all that impressive in the gore department or zombie make-up areas, but there's a huge boatload of humor to go along with some gags so that it's not a total waste.Rated R: Violence, Language and mild drug use
atinder I think this movie was nice change from the normal Zombies we are used to getting, the idea was fresh and original at the times.As this movie we see view of the zombies for a change. Small plot four friends ended up eating ice cream which was green, unaware what was from toxic barrel that used to make it, they soon turn into zombies. What like about this movie is that when they are acting normal people the movie, it's in colour and we see them acting like Zombies the movie is black and white, this happens though-tout the whole movie. I found this movie very funny, there some really great jokes, which worked really well, which had me laughing out loud.The acting from the whole cast was really good, and the zombie make up effect was really good and the other effect in the movies were really well made as well. I do this movie was really very low the gore, I did not found that gory at all, which was a little disappointing.However it's a really good Horror/Zombie comedy, but don't expect anything like Braindead aka Dead Alive or Shaun of the Dead.I did found my self laughing at this movie more then I did while watching Zombieland, Which I thought was really good as well. 8 out of 10
