Featured reviews
I know that there is a great tradition of zombie B movies and a so bad its good sweet spot. This one however misses the mark. A very disjointed story line with sketchy character development and way too long. I often was left confused as to who people were and what their motivatiins were. If you really a fan of the zombie genre Id look elsewhere. The movie title is the Christmas apocalypse but aside from a bit of snow there is little to no reference of the season in the whole movie. For me the only way to watch this was if Mystery Science Theatre 3000 were to riff on it. I would not recomend this film.
Plot
As winter rolls into a small Midwestern town, the locals get more than just snow. As the dead start to rise.
Cast
Tony Todd, in alas one of his paying back to the industry rolls.
Verdict
Have you seen Zombies (2016) starring Tony Todd? Then you don't need to see this. No let me be clear, I'm not saying they're similar movies I'm saying they're the same movie.
As I booted this supposed 2024 movie up my heart warmed seeing Tony Todd, after all he at time of writing isn't even on the credits. However, he looked weirdly young for a new movie. Then what I was watching felt awfully familiar and I looked into it further. This is Zombies (2016) marginally edited, with a new title card, bit of additional marketing, new name and re-released almost a decade later.
Bit insulting right? Zombies (2016) was an awful movie and this right here is the same awful movie but with added foolishness on top.
Rants
Let's not kid ourselves this isn't the first time this kind of thing has happened, but this one stings a bit for some reason. Can you imagine a person paying for this!? Only to find themselves watching a movie they'd already seen 8 years prior. Are there not laws against this? If not, why not?
The Good
Tony Todd
The Bad
Ugly Poorly acted Unoriginal to remarkable levels A re-release of an existing movie.
