What a movie for Bridgeport! This movie is intended for the teenage audience and it does a good job fitting its audience. Since the movie is basically one for teens it has a positive message with bullying and technology, 2 major problems in our world today. Its very realistic in some aspects like things that can happen in reality.
Zombie club has many advantages and disadvantages. Some acting isn't very good in some parts, lets just say that you can tell who has been acting for a while and then the people who they just threw in the movie. There are definitely some emotional parts that hit home. The special effects in the movie are good. You couldn't tell in some parts that they were using them. But then again you can tell where they using them and it wasn't good at some points in the movie.
Do I recommend the movie? Yes, I do definitely for the intended audience at least. Also for locals that want to see the awesome production that was made in there town. Overall I thought this was a good movie! Could have used some work here and there. It definitely makes Bridgeport look even better!

The movie took place in a high school, where all these teenagers were put into detention. They heard a scream coming from the lab and when they walked into the room they came out with superpowers. The movie was based on anti-bullying where it showed throughout the story. It showed Justin bullying the kids earlier in the story. Finally, once they had the same problem, he bonded more with them and become an anti-bullying club to stop it. The other theme is more science-fiction where the superpowers from the Poison Dart Frog came into place. The movie focused on teenagers because there is more bullying between them, and the movie was in a high school, so it shows who it's targeting.
The strengths overruled the weaknesses, because the movie was well put together. The characters played their roles well and it showed from start to end. The scenery fit the story well and matched the genre of it. The dramatic effects were well put together and added the science-fiction and spooky part to the movie. The only weakness was the lack of scenery, because it was well put together in the high school but outside would've added a lot more.
I liked the movie and the story there was behind it. I would recommend to someone who likes more science-fiction due to the superpower theme of it. It interested me since I not only knew the people, but also the school it was filmed in. The only reason I had some dislikes is due to the unrealistic part, but other than that it was overall good.

This movie was about some highschoolers that received detention and ended up becoming zombies with superpowers because of a mix up. The movie focused a lot on bonding and anti-bullying which I thought was a great message.
My boyfriend picked the movie to watch as we're avid zombie movie watchers. The movie was displayed in the horror section on Amazon Prime, therefore we believed it was going to be a movie for young adults/adults. Not only that, but it had 7 stars on IMDb. Therefore, that is the reason I am giving it the rating I am, since it was presented as a movie not specifically for children.
The acting was bad, the makeup was bad, and the special effects were awful. Watching this movie, I quickly caught on it was more of a Disney Channel Original movie kind of thing, but I decided to still give a chance in that area. And even with that narrative for myself, it was still missing a lot. The story was very lacking and although it had a decent enough foundation(generous), there was so much missing and I found myself questioning a lot of things happening.
Ergo- Movie is good for kids under 10 or else you're going to be thoroughly disappointed.

And the environment is like in a high school, and its a very benign flick. but if youre in for a mindblasting super blockbuster like ''the breakfast club'' or any of the golden spurs that occationally were made in the 80's and 1990's then stop here. its a family film, therefore all the benigness, and if you are looking for a bunch of kids living their lives in and on a social network by smartphones, well youll be dissapointed, i saw only one cellphone during the whole film, and it was used to speak in, thats just so phenomenal that its worth mentioning.
its not a comedy, its a smile movie, the cast isnt bad, but they are far to scripted and trained in their roles so it becomes rather slow and unengaging. and zoombies they arent, rather a push of fungi poisoning, if i were the doctor examining the flock.
the one thing that actually impress is the special effects and comprehensive use of styling and make up. if the comedy and mystery had been propelled by another director and producer it wouldve reached other busters to shoulderheight. but not the way this was made.
by all means, im just a grumpy old man, and do for sure like slapstick, and comedy were i can detect the pranks 15 secs before they happen, you shouldnt shadow away from this flick. its for all ages, and do deal with common problems among highschoolers/students, like being put in a box by looks and behaviour, bullyying, drug use, and parental pressure, and dilletantic headmasters, so it gets a small recommend

Usually, when I hear the words "faith-based film" I quietly decide to skip it and move on. I was burned by too many church screenings in the mid-90s, especially those geared toward a youth audience. However, The Zombie Club is unique, and well-worth your time. It's a genuinely entertaining film where the message is clear without sacrificing the story. And, to be frank, it's much higher quality than the movies we sat through when I was a kid.
In a small town, a diverse group of students find themselves stuck with the typical high school labels (smart girl, jock, pretty girl, nerd, stoner, goth kid) and they can't get along because they are all too busy trying to fit in with their own tribe. Soon enough, those with the social clout to get away with it start to bully the unpopular students. Coincidentally, a group of bullies and the bullied end up in Saturday detention together. There they, and their delightfully absent-minded science teacher, are infected with toxic gas emanating from a shipment of poison dart frogs mistakenly sent to the public-school lab. From that time on, they find themselves endowed with supernatural powers, but this comes at a cost: They are slowly degrading mentally and within a few days they'll be dead... or maybe undead. Losing their humanity, however, causes them to find it in each other. The group ends up bonding and working together to curb bullying in their school.
Movie goers of a certain age will recognize the title of this film as a nod to the "The Breakfast Club" with which it shares many intentional similarities- From Saturday detention to a group of students bonding over the struggles of adolescence. For this and other reasons, The Zombie Club is a movie that can cross generations. But it hopes to cross social paradigms too. By the end of the story, viewers will likely find an open door to discuss bullying in general and that seems to be the filmmaker's intent. Somehow it achieves this without becoming too preachy or feeling bad. But it's more than a discussion starter. It's a fun movie in its own right. I'd recommend it for anyone.
