Yummy

I enjoy watching movies of this genre, and it was quite a pleasure to come across this gem. The plot is interesting and has its many brilliant moments, camerawork and CG are good, acting is also excellent, as well as the eastern European setting in its concrete grittiness and music - aah the music is also brilliant and quite on pont - not sure if its Macedonian, or Bulgarian - but quite on point. All in all - very enjoyable movie - Kudos! Will watch again.

One of the better comedic zombie movies to come out lately. Not plagued with the rapid-fire, snarky, annoying dialog that America has been putting out. Fun, well acted, well directed.

The movie is pretty much what I expected: a horror movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. There is humor in it that works most of the time. Though for a horror movie it's actually not that explicit: real gore is off camera mostly, you actually don't see that much. At a certain moment a head is bashed in with a fire extinguisher, but you only see the blood splatter, not the head being bashed in. They should have gone the 'braindead/dead alive' route with much over the top gore, that would add to the comedy and make it funnier. The 90 minutes go by smoothly and it's a decent watch but don't expect it to be a horror classic.

A young med schools dropout takes his lovely and well endowed girlfriend to a dodgy hospital for a breast reduction but things don't go according to plan. This is a fun zombie horror set in an Eastern European plastic surgery hospital but thats about the extent of it. If you go in expecting nothing more then you'll have fun. Think Dead Snow but set in a hospital and with patient zombies instead of nazi zombies and you'll have a fair idea of what you are getting yourself into. The young male lead and his aversion to blood makes him a fairly useless hero in this situation and so we get something different from your usual lead male heroics. A wide range of characters including the girlfriend, her superficial mother, some creepy doctors and sleazy medical personnel keep things interesting but it still never reaches much higher than can be expected from the premise.

In the zombie genre Yummy definitely has its place. There is a lot of gore, a lot of blood and guts spilling out, and the make-up artists did a good job with their creations. As for the story it's just what you could expect when watching a zombie movie, nothing too serious, just endless bloody fun. As a Belgian I was surprised they made a movie like this one. Belgians don't make a lot of movies but when they do it's most of the time good if not excellent, and so is this one, a good fast paced gore movie à la Braindead. Gore and horror is certainly not the kind of movies that gets sponsored in Belgium so it was a nice surprise they gave it a shot. A good movie with unknown but decent actors to me, that is if you like this genre of entertainment.
