This film reminded me of a mixture of warm bodies and the corpse bride but without the humor. It got straight to the point brining our title character back alive for a forever love with her boyfriend. The plot and cast both did excellent in portraying the story and I liked the overall tone. The gore and the way that the transformation were done were good. Id like to see more unique takes like this in the future.
The sex and nudity could have been avoided. The cgi was really bad, and the acting of most of the people wasn't good. The protagonist did her best I have to give her that.
This homage to the undead is campy and over the top, but has just the right amount of bite to make it fun. It won't win awards and it's a little long, but it's a creepy teenage Italian chapter of our favorite monsters.
Don't Kill Me: Italian Zombie film. Mirta takes drugs with her boyfriend, Robin,she comes back, smashing her way out of her crypt but is heart broken to find that Robin hasn't risen. This isn't your usual type of Zombie, They are like a Zombie/Vampire hybrid, gaining immortality and retaining their mortal appearance provided they feed on humans. There are Zombie hunters, the Benandanti, a centuries old organisation who pursue Mirta. She is "adopted" by an experienced zombie who instructs Mirta on the lore of the Overdead. The struggle between the Zombies and the Hunters take up the rest of the film. Some horrific scenes of people being eaten alive, their throats bitten out by Mirta before she learns the etiquette of fine dining. The strength of the Zombies is awesome but they can be overpowered after multiple gunshot wounds. Also a few well choreographed fight scenes. Not a great film and at times style outshines substance as the narrative unfolds but I found it to be an enjoyable Zombie tale. Directed & Co-Written by Andrea De Sica. On Netflix. 7/10.
The good thing about watching movies without having any clue what they are about or what they are period ... is that you can be surprised by them. Of course that surprise can be a bad one too. But in this case it was more of a positive surprise. Not all the way (there are major flaws here, within the characters and the plot), but it still is more than a decent effort.
Acting is solid, even or maybe despite the fact that we don't have any real likeable characters. At least in the major roles. Even our female main character is .. quite bland at first and sort of horrible later on. Even if you may not agree with the latter part ... you have to admit there are moral implications that are as bad as they get. Nudity and violence included - even when you least expect it (or at all)
