Just awful

First off, let me say that I am a huge zombie movie fan. I watch them all, even the bad ones. So, when I saw the description for this movie (Zombie pop culture over the last two centuries.), I was excited to watch it! I was expecting interviews with actors and/or writers about their zombie books or movies. In this documentary, the host interviews a bunch of people who are not actors or even zombie fans. They are people who explain to us what they believe is the real, underlining meaning of zombie movies. Not all zombie movies have a social or political meaning! Most are made to scare you and be enjoyed! That is it! No hidden meanings. This movie is boring. Don't waste your time.
