Did not like it

Rating: 5/10 (10 October 2009)

For a zombie movie, it had less gore than the opening scenes in Tropic Thunder. It did feel like it tried too hard, without getting it right at all. And how did the girls survive at all when they are so mind numbingly unaware of how to handle zombies? They may have been great con artists, although I would NOT go out of my way to help a woman who clearly stated she was engaged. But they had apparently no clue on zombie rules. Also, I found it odd that there were perhaps 100-200 zombies in the entire area of the country that the gang experienced. I faced more zombies on my original Xbox in Hunter the Reckoning. There were huge lulls where no threat of any kind appeared. Shaun of the Dead was funny because they took the extraordinary and experienced it as ordinary average people. While there was not the inexplicable Japanese style bikini clad chick fighting zombies, the gang did not seem to put any thought to armor or at least thick leather clothes and precautions against infection. Startling number of locales with what I can only assume was self sustaining generators. I love zombie movies and games and this was a let down.
