    Not your typical movie, something different

    I did not watch the trailer I just watch the movie so I was surprised. The acting is pretty good along with the special effects and makeup. It was a little slow at the start but I was not bored with this movie. I would definitely recommend you watch this.

    deserve to die

    Roger takes his two kids, Summer and Colin, and their friend Jason to a vacation cabin in the woods. Summer hates her young stepmom Lisa. The kids take a walk and find a house with disturbing evidence. A woman (Lauren Holly) brings home two douchebags and the kids spy her feeding the two men to her zombie.

    Summer and Jason are a little bit adorable. Colin is annoyingly stupid. Stupidity is one of the more annoying tropes in teen characters if they're not funny at it. Roger is also really stupid but at least, he can blame the alcohol. I'm actually with who gets killed. I wouldn't mind if we lose one more specific character. This is a low budget comedy horror indie competently made. It's not horrible but it's not good either.

    Good

    Good so close to being great . Loved the humour ! The horror was good but the ending needed a little more work but what made it for me was the actor who played the father he was actually brilliant ! Would of loved to of seen more of him

    A light hearted isolated zombie-and-mouse game of a movie that's an easy, breezy watch

    A dysfunctional family vacation turns bloody when three teenage kids discover that their new neighbour for the weekend Lauren Holly (looking pretty kick ass kitted out in skin tight bite-proof tactical gear), is killing off people to feed to her zombie family in yet another cabin in the woods horror comedy. This ode to 80's genre flicks written and directed by Peter Rich (his band HUMANS provide the movies cool synth score), benefits from some likeable characters and good performances as well as some top notch practical effects which hit the killswitch hard when it counts (lots of shotgun blasts and exploding heads). It doesn't exactly reinvent the wheel, but for a light hearted isolated zombie-and-mouse game of a movie this is an easy, breezy watch.

    Don't Bother Your Neighbors

    I loved how the movie started out, with great cinematography and mysterious ideas. Soon jokes flew in from all sides and it was like Cabin in the Woods, but not as good or engaging. However, this is basically Evil Dead Lite, a kiddie version of a horror movie. It looks good but something's off the entire movie. The actors do a wonderful job. Jokes are all hits. Just relax, turn off your mind and enjoy it for what it is - a very weird horror comedy. Oh, and yeah, the dad steals the show 10/10 times. He's the best bit.
