An easy watch in a B-movie marathon but you'll have forgotten it by the time you're done with the Thanksgiving leftovers.

This is exactly the kind of thing horror lovers should watch with like-minded friends as the holidays roll around (probably pre-meal, though, thanks to copious amounts of zombie puke).

It’s an entertaining premise and the cast are all onboard. That’s enough to keep your attention, but not enough to stick in your memory.

Rated: 2.5/5

In the best traditions of the shopping experience, you might well be tempted to take Black Friday back and ask for a refund…

Black Friday is a throwback in the best way ... funny (in a gross way) and gross (in a fun way) - a quick and breezy romp that could be ideal viewing before you head out in search of bargains on that darkest of retail days.

Rated: 3/5

A fun movie that’s basically Superstore meets Army of Darkness. Would absolutely recommend if you’re a fan of Ash vs the Evil Dead, Stan Against Evil, Shaun of the Dead, Santa’s Slay or Return of the Living Dead.

This movie needs more appreciation for those effects and the creatures. They were awesome!

Dour Dennis is life. This is the retail version of Sharknado. The movie plays off a lot of funny stereotypes and has some great one-liners. The plot itself is poorly written, but amazingly executed by the actors! It gives the vibe of a bunch of actors given the prompt of zombie movies, prosthetics, and plopped in a toy store and end up improvising everything. I loved it.

I used to work at the Babies R US this was filmed at. Saw some great behinds the scenes shots in person. Unfortunately, that only goes so far. I don't like the movie but have made it my Thanksgiving eve tradition to watch. Would def. Recommend for yourself and let you make your own choice.
