Featured review
I would have rated this film a full 10 out of 10, but I have to admit, it was so disturbing to me that I couldn't give it the full score.
Imagine, one zombie-girl being held captive by teenage boys. The zombie isn't the monster here, it's the boys.
This is most definitely NOT a date movie. This is more a flick that a person sees on their own and discusses later on internet message boards.
Not much blood and guts, no dystopian future... so why is it so disturbing? A quick perusal of the plot/synopsis should tell you why, I'm not going to give away any spoilers in this review.
I will say that this movie does a great job explaining the motivations of its male characters. I think it captures the angst, drives, and suffering of teenage males. Granted, the movie throws all of it to extreme contrast... but that only helps underline and illuminate those things.
The movie does a great job with cinematics and pacing. I expect to see great things from the directors.
I'd also like to comment on the movie poster (showing a woman's lips at a 90 degree angle). Brilliant movie poster on several levels.
