How to Kill a Zombie

Any "good" review left for this (on here, rotten tomatoes) is from people on the film trying to big this film up. Don't fall for it Don't waste your time with this. There are great zombie comedys and this is far from it. The fact they compare it to such ones like Shaun of the dead and cockney vs zombies is beyond ridiculous!

The "comedy" is cheaper than cheap and more than often is forced upon you. It is infuriating, annoying, lazy and isn't in the least bit funny.

The acting is dreadful and increasingly bad as the movie goes on.

The plot of the film I felt was pointless. Honestly there is nothing good I can say about this film.

Acting was alright, and some of the effects were corny, but i did like how it kept you on edge.

Sometimes budding chefs try to put two ingredients together and it just doesn't work. Comedy and horror have been done and done well before, but it says something about the paradox of life when you see a film of this nature that is neither funny nor scary. Even the ambiance of the Saco drive in could not save this movie. The lead character Mac (The starring role the director was humble enough to bestow upon himself) is hollow and wooden both in the acting and directing. Only after noticing him use social media to proposition "fans" to vote it high on IMDb (so it would sell more dvds) did I feel compelled to share my thoughts.

Such high art film making. Just the title of the movie suggests the same plot twists we haven't seen since Hitchcock's Vertigo but matched with the intellectual stimulation you come to expect from movies where extras are the stars being shot down and hacked up by the overacting renaissance man of our time Bill "Freight Train" McLean!

If you're looking for good local horror I would highly suggest Corey Norman's "Hanover House" and Shawn French's "Wrong House". The most scary and funny thing about this movie is realization of the minutes it steals from your life.

Take it from me and don't waste your time.

I was one of the lucky ones to first see this film at it's world premiere. Though it was the second screening unfortunately for me. It was truly funny. Had some great moments that I would love to spoil for you right now.... But I won't. Surprisingly kid friendly it seemed. Not one of those films that is full of gore but rather filled with the laughs. Good Ole fashioned independent low budget Zombie movie the way it was meant to be. Mixed with the comedy flair and you got something here that is Worthy of a sequel for sure. What was even cooler was to the the main character "Mac" walking around right after the showing of the film in full costume and character. When this comes out on DVD & or Blu Ray I am buying it for sure!!

Living alone in the wilderness, a man teaching his son how to be a man in the middle of a zombie outbreak finds a group of survivors stuck in an office building trying to get out alive and realize their skills might be able to save them, bringing them all together to hold off the creatures.

This was a generally decent if still flawed genre effort. One of the finer aspects to be had here is the main setup that provides a decent enough way to get the whole thing going on a worthwhile and workable route. The main setup here offers a fun way to establish the character dynamics between the two with the whole thing being used as a training exercise to get him ready for life offers a fun way to explain their relationship while also allowing for a great way of introducing the zombie hordes in this universe. The nonstop action that comes about with the film focuses on their need to survive which brings them into contact with not just the other local survivors but the main group in the industry building that this one spends the majority of time where they have to protect the dwindling number of survivors from the creatures coming closer to taking them out. As this gets plenty of fun encounters including creative gags and setpieces, some solid bits of gore, and great zombie make-up along the way, there are some overall fun aspects to be had here. That said, there are some pretty big laws with this one. The main issue here is the outright obvious low-budget eel present which never allows this one to do anything more than be a watchable-at-best entry in the genre. The stripped-down settings, lack of scope for a massive office building, and the general style featured here give this the kind of low-budget presentation away at every opportunity to the point where it's quite easy to see what type of film this is. It never manages to escape it which causes things to become quite familiar and overwhelming with how it plays out which lets this highlight another big issue in how lackluster most of the comedy is. The idea of the wisecracking duo trying to overcome their issues by dealing with a zombie apocalypse should've been far funnier than it is. Still, a lot of this is just underwhelming and somewhat cringy which makes things somewhat hard to get through as well. These factors manage to bring it down the most.
