Zombie Repellant

The whole time I was watching, it felt like watching a school project. Don't get me wrong, the cast did their best, and I appreciate a good effort. But the acting does not carry the movie, the script and storyline does-which, might I add, is like watching an amateur model in flimsy bland, boring, clothes (Model being the actors; clothes being the script).

Cinematography was average, props and sfx are okay, though some of the sound effects seem out of place, which may throw some people off-to summarize, everything is just okay and nothing special.

THEY ALSO USED AI IMAGES! Which made me laugh, then skip every 5 minutes of the movie.

Do I recommend? Nah. Will I watch again? Nah.

The fact that this was a zombie movie that I hadn't already seen, nor actually heard about, was more than sufficient to make me sit down and watch the movie as I had the opportunity to do so. I am a big fan of all things zombie, so of course I had to see what writer and director Sean King had to bring to the zombie genre.

The storyline was sort of bland. Writer Sean King was sort of aiming at a horror comedy, but the movie had very little of both ingredients, and that didn't make for a particularly entertaining movie. The movie was devoid of laughs and funny moments, and there wasn't really any horror to be found anywhere. Unless you consider a bland script to be horror.

I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie. I will say, though, that the acting performances in the movie were fair, despite the fact that the script was bland.

The zombie make-up and special effects were low key and low budget. Sure, it wasn't among the worst of special effects I've seen in a zombie movie, but you're not in for anything extraordinary here.

Sure, "Zombie Repellent" was a watchable movie, but hardly one that warrants more than a single viewing. Is it a movie that I would recommend to fans of the zombie genre? No. Not really. Is it a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time? No. Not really.

My rating of writer and director Sean King's 2025 movie "Zombie Repellent" lands on a three out of ten stars.
