Fun for the Whole Family

Rating: 9/10 (10 January 2017)

My son dragged me to see this. I've gone with him to his comic book movies, his other zombie movies, and on and on. So I was set for one of those Dad-is- willing-to-give-up-a-day things. This utterly tongue in cheek masterpiece had me from the get-go. There are so many sight gags and pop culture references, so many goofy encounters, so much character to the undead, I really enjoyed this. I see now why it became a cult film because it is infinitely quotable and full of absurdities. It also has a really fine cinematic sense. I also loved what the role of the zombies is at the end of the picture. If one has ever worked with high school boys (or lazy male young adults), you will find a great deal to enjoy here. Really!!!
