Audience Member The tough life and loves of being a Zombie Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Well-intentioned, low-budget look at 'life' as a zombie. It's clunky and wordy, and looks like something you made with your friends at school, but it has a quality that just about manages to shine through. Great wank scene. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member zombies can't masturbate. interesting departure from the typical zack piece though. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Achingly slow minimalist zom tale follows a man's gradual transformation into the title creature after sustaining a bite from an infected gal. Not a bad premise. Sadly, the creators, so focused on creating a "thinking man's" zom flick, have made something more akin to a stuffy art school project than anything disturbing or horrifying (we're about one weeping clown eating pasta in a bathtub away from being unwatchably pretentious). If being mind-numbingly boring wasn't enough, we're also treated to heaps of "deep" introspective voice-overs, moody masturbation scenes, distractingly poor f/x (save for the finale) and a lead character whom we're to believe is highly intelligent, yet makes incredibly stupid decisions (presumably to keep the story afloat). For example, when this guy comes across what appears to be a diseased, rotting, blood and pus-covered crack whore doing the funky chicken in an abandoned house in the woods, he scoops her up, gets that pizza-face within chompin' distance of his and carries her like a groom with a bride 'cross the threshold. Bottom line, the makers deserve two stars for the unique premise, but, if you're looking for a low-budget, unique and disturbing take on the walking dead, skip this and check out The Zombie Diaries. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member While a good idea in concept, this movie just about fails on every level. You'd think a simple story about the transformation into zombiehood would yield better results. This, for some reason, is more of an art film with way too many scenes of the zombie staring off into the distance while piano music played. Oh well, at least I got the chance to see that zombie's do masturbate.. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting contemporary zombie story, rather brutally graphic, but it is an unusual twist on the often told subject. Very good score, nicely acted and directed. Good pace. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
