Gabriel T @GabrielFagundes Aug 17 The movie manages to go bloody enough and make good sets for its clear lower budged compared to other productions and the many aspects work sufficiently: the comedy scenes and the drama. Giving relatively important scenes to the kid wasn't a good idea though, she was too young to act properly, it take off much of the emotion of this story See more Rosana B @RosanaBotafogo 02/20/2025 Tenho mega paixão por zumbis e tubarões, quanto mais estranhos e bizarros, mais amo, e aqui não foi diferente, que filme delicioso, leve, divertido, sangrento, com zumbis espertinhos e famintos, inteligentes e silenciosos, que criam seitas satânicas, criancinhas fofinhas, belas imagens florestais, gritos e mais gritos, protagonistas lesadinhos e engraçadinhos, o guardinha que dá sustos, amei, personagens se perdendo, ótimo desenvolvimento, bons sustos. Excelente produção, canadense… Love Zumbis See more Mach mal W @RT02958344 01/26/2025 This zombie film completely misses the mark. The characters are shallow, and it’s impossible to connect with any of them. The camera tries to achieve depth and tension, but it falls short. Rather than being engaging, the film often feels disorienting. The scene where zombies are holding hands is a perfect example of how it strays from the genre’s basic logic. A failed attempt at reinterpreting the zombie genre. See more Marta J @RT28186495 12/22/2023 And finally.. A thoughtful zombie movie, that doesnt focus on slice and dice... And an ending with some hope....xxx See more Dan D @Goku4032 02/21/2023 The movie was alright, but what was the point? A group of survivors wandering around aimlessly, zombie field art, killing some zombie attack victims before they turn but not others..it didn't make sense. Was that the point, that in a zombie apocalypse there is no point? See more Taylor L @RT77267842 09/23/2022 If you're tired of The Walking Dead taking two years and 20 episodes to take their ragtag group of survivors from one place to another, Ravenous might be the film for you; it's character-oriented but things actually happen relatively quickly and have clearly established consequences. Focusing on silence permeated by moments of violence, and in particular lingering trauma, Robin Aubert's French-language Canadian zombie flick follows in a grand tradition of using the undead as political and social allegory. The zombies in the film are destructive, but are also organized and have a semblance of their own culture (a vaguely religious tendency to gather personal objects simply to observe them; shades of Romero consumerism?). For a Canadian province that has been perpetually distinct from the rest of Canada with its unique language and traditions, coupled with increasing social movement from even further flung territories, it's difficult not to see Ravenous as a depiction of modern culture clash. Featuring echoes of Tarkovsky's lonely and desolate landscapes and slow pace, Ravenous is an interesting and welcome update to the tired zombie formula that is worth a watch.
