LOVED the concept, HATED the implementation

Rating: 4/10 (7 December 2015)

A movie with the potential of creating a new genre, with the maincharacter being an actual zombie... Which could have given some very needed depth to the hackneyed groaning creatures we all know and love. However, sadly the movie ends up just being another romantic flick with supernatural elements for teenagers. I also feel like the zombies are very loosely defined, can they smell human flesh? Can they communicate with each other ? How and when do they become "bonies"? Even though the movie sometimes tries to be self-critical and even make fun of the genre as a whole, I think, just because you know your movie is bad, it does not become better. I LOVED the concept, but HATED the implementation.
