Zombies 4: El origen de los vampiros

It was an okay movie. I liked the storyline with Nova and Victor. It was very reminiscent of Allison and Zed in the first movie, which i'm fairly certain was the writers intent.

Other than that, most of the songs were good, but the writing kinda fell flat. Not much character development outside of the songs, which i didn't like. What was the point of having Willa and Eliza in the film if they're not in it for like 3/4ths of it? They're some of the best characters!

Again, it was an okay movie. It's the type of movie that you watch when you are extremely bored or if you just want to laugh at something cringey.

First, the disclaimers:

1) we forget we even have the Disney channel 2) this is not the type of movie we watch at all 3) I would never willingly watch a musical 4) I don't think I've ever watched one of these sing/dance movies in my 64 years in my (granted, old) memory.

5) although the title implied it was from a series, we didn't know anything about that

We were tempted by the description tagline "spooky, playful and endearing" for a Zombie movie.

An animated beginning, we were tempted to turn it off, but then it became "real".

A couple minutes in, I turned to my husband & said.

"Omg, I think she's going to start singing"

About 1/2 in, I said,

"It's like I can't stop watching with some kind of horrified interest."

It's really sweet. We really liked it.

I can see why young people are so into singing the songs and doing the tik tok video dance sketches.

The plot was good, no holes.

Mainly it gives me hope. It's nice to see that kids are learning about the better side of human nature in this uncertain world. That's probably what I liked best about it.

Otherwise, I still don't like musicals. LOL

My husband REALLY liked it though, & scored it exceptionally higher than his usual scores. So it must be pretty good.

In the town of Seabrook, werewolves, humans, zombies, and aliens live in peace. Unbeknownst to them, there are now Daywalkers and Vampires. Both societies have been hiding and they both eat the Blood Fruit. The two sides arrive at the orchard and find that they need one more key. Zed is headed for football camp and Addison is headed for cheerleader camp. They are driving along when they get intercepted by the two monster sides. The gang with newly found monsters set off to find the missing key.

This is High School Monsters Musical. With the previous cast aging out, this seems to be an injection of new blood, no pun intended. With this franchise, a fair bit of non-sense has to be accepted. I don't know if this franchise is going much further. One can sense that the original premise is wearing thin.

The music is pretty good by blending different genres while remaining catchy .The plot shares lots of resemblance with Zombies 1 which makes this movie less impressive. Though I'm a huge fan of Zombies franchise, I won't lie that the newly added character and lore makes the movie a bit chaotic. The newly added character still lacks a deeper relationship compared to the relationship between Zed and Addison. However this episode serves more as a transition, implying that the Zombies 5 (if possible) focus will be on Victor(Malachi) and Nova(Freya). The summer camp reminds me of High School Musical The Musical The Series episode 3. Overall if you want to kill the time, Zombies 4 is a good choice,

A movie that started off terribly with bad acting, cringey Disney channel moments, and bad songs. To eventually being more watchable, but by this point, this franchise lost everything that the first movie had. We can't keep reusing the same story beats and theme in every movie! Please find something else to tell! It gets old fast!

This franchise has overstayed its welcome for too long! The first film is the only good one, and the one I have nostalgia for, but now, it's not good.

Please end this franchise, you've gone on long enough.

Songs are not good, characters have gone through there arcs, story's gone everywhere you can go. There's no need to keep milking this franchise.
