Little Monsters

I think it's true that this could be the most enjoyable zombie comedy since "Shaun of the Dead", there are as many great bits of black comedy as there are those of the feel-good kind. While the laughs do come from familiar places, a lot of factors, including the two leads, makes the movie very worthwhile.

"Little Monsters" is a fast paced, simple minded yet witty zombedy adventure. It starts off a lot like a black comedy, lots of crude but actually funny jokes, no zombies yet & Alexander England gets introduced as the first of two highly enjoyable leads. The other is a quickly rising favorite of mine - Lupita Nyong'o, who has established herself as a strong presence on screen in both darkly serious and comedic roles/movies. I hope she sticks around the horror genre, because she would be missed in the community. As the story unravels, the comedy continues, but shifts slowly, showing off moments both sweet and scary. Quite a few feel-good, sweet sequences and I had no choice but to root for our heroes. Even all the kids did their best thing, adorable little creatures. I'm happy to say that aesthetically & technically "Little Monsters" is very well done, vibrant, playful and bloody. I've found that it's quite easy for a good comedy to make you sport the rose colored glasses, because they are undeniably very entertaining and can steal your heart sometimes - this excuse is the intro for me stating that I can't pick on this movie much, it was a wild and awesome ride. Some flaws I noticed were, for example, a drop in pacing around the middle part of the movie, the afore mentioned familiriaty of the concept, jokes, flow, structure, but all that didn't stand in the way of "Little Monsters" being a blast.

Not a lot of great zombedies nowadays, maybe even less than once a year a solid one comes around, so I encourage You to pick this up, get into the couch and enjoy the adventure. My rating: 8/10

Biased opinion as a parent, but the kids in this horror spoof made it amazing. Makes sense as the film is dedicated to Abe Forsythe's son Spike, whose first day of kindergarten inspired parts of the story. Some original zombie gags towards the end were a nice touch. Definitely reccomend to 'Shaun of the Dead' fans that now have kids. My wife had tears during the credits, happy or sad? You'll just have to find out.

It's not everyone's cup of tea but for those like this kind of humor I can't see why you wouldn't like it. Full of character and tons of humor check it out

Little monsters was a fun zombie movie. It reminded me a lot of cooties but instead of the action contained in a classroom. Its instead in far which is right next to a government facility. Dave is a bit of a slacker, a washed up muscian and one day when taking his nephew to school he has heart eyes for teacher caroline. Nyong and england are both great here and I enjoyed their performances very much. Dave ends up going with the class to a field trip and sing shake it off on the way. They are unaware though that zombies have got of a facility and they are coming for them. The horror was somewhat wholesome in this and the way the characters were able to still make jokes in such a situation. Josh gad is also here as a funny childrens tv character filming at the farm called Teddy mchgiggle though he is a little selfish and has a potty mouth. Little monsters is overal a film that does not take itself to seriously and has fun with its soerce and I enjoyed this very much.

Wrong in so many ways but with a wicked and often hilarious sense of adult comedy - Lupita Nyong'o is an absolute delight!
