The Amazing Adventures of the Living Corpse

Just saw a screening of this at the Calgary International Film Festival and was fairly impressed. The animation and 3D effects were great. Soundtrack was very well put together. That being said the story felt a bit too rushed and disjointed. The plot was good, but the way it was put together could have been better I feel.

If you're into video game like movies and don't mind getting a little dizzy from the video game angles, then this is the movie for you. In fairness, the director was there for the Q&A and stated the film was not intended to be viewed on an IMAX screen and that could be one reason why it was so dizzying. There was also a weird pause in the movie (guess the director hadn't noticed it before - he seemed a bit embarrassed over it), but in later showings you probably won't notice this.

Honestly, I enjoyed it, but felt it could have been a bit better.

Being a zombie aficionado, I pretty much devour, pardon the pun, every single piece of zombie material that I come across. And every once in a while there is something that is just such a swing and a miss that it makes you cringe.

"The Amazing Adventures of the Living Corpse" is one of those moments.

The story is utterly rubbish, and lacking a greater sense of purpose and coherency. It is just a random series of events put together into some kind of atrocity that is supposed to be a storyline. It just didn't work out.

And the animation itself didn't really help the movie along either. Why? Well, it was just too wooden and rigid, lacking proper movements and even failing to make the audience buy into it. It was sort of like a first draft at the animation to be presented, given a texture coating and then shipped off from the animator's desk. It was just not nice to look at.

The zombie was the sole thing in the entire animated movie that was worth looking at, but even that was nowhere near enough to make it worth suffering through. I gave up on this movie about 50 minutes into the confusion and mess.

Even the dialogue didn't pass off as being believable. It was forced, delivered without conviction and it was just downright embarrassing.

If you enjoy the zombie genre, then stay well clear of "The Amazing Adventures of the Living Corpse".

Great animated film. The look and sound were a good match to the content of the movie. it's rated R but there is little gore in the film. Really should have been PG 13. I was comfortable with my kids watching it(4-7) as any language in the film was very mild and the violence was more of a video game quality.Even then there are games that are more violent than this. Unless you are a bad parent or have kids that are not too bright they know it's all just fun and make believe. Highly recommend this movie and if you are interested in more continuing adventures from The Living Corpse check out the graphic novels from Dynamite Entertainment. Words/art by Ken Haeser and Buz Hasson. The movie serves as a prequel to the book. This concept of a "zombie with a conscience" might seem familiar but THIS IS THE ORIGINAL. A graphic novel started in 06 just now getting the film treatment. They did it first and did it best. Really don't want to give away anything about it. Just know that it's a kick ass movie.

I loved this movie! This was a cool zombie movie a great story line between a father and a son. The special effects were cool considering this was a low budget movie. I definitely recommend this movie. I found this movie on Red Box, I found it by accident, my friend wanted to see it. One Friday night we rented it and watched it twice. Afterwards I looked it up and found it online and bought it. My friends like and found it to be very interesting. My friend's kids enjoyed it very much. I'm actually buying 4 copies for my friend's birthday parties. I'm totally in to Zombie movies. Thanks to Red Box! Check it out it's so interesting!!

I was told by a friend of mine to check out an awesome 3D Zombie movie, because she knew I loved watching great low- budget films and also that my fiancée is a HUGE zombie fan!! So, of course we had to check it out. I rented the movie at a Red Box which was pretty nice. "The Amazing Adventures Of The Living Corpse", it was pretty interesting, had a great storyline, and it had really cool 3D graphic effects for a low budget film! However, I don't recommend it for kids under 10.. It was pretty graphic and a little bit too much for young kids. But over all it was a great low-budget zombie film . I totally recommend it, if your a die heart zombie fan :)
