Send a text And onto resident evil extinction, part 3 of the franchise that we are working our way through. We will watch the movies, then Welcome to Racoon City the reboot and the Netflix show. But before that, this is the 3rd movie on the bounce and it admittedly my favourite, and think that is because it is no longer hamstrung by being tied to the games, and therefore has to play to the audience of gamers. It can just be a movie It opens as the first movie does with Alice in the shower wak...
Send a text 2004 and a bit of a mess Resident Evil Apocalypse seems to be the last of the Paul W Anderson Res Evil movies that pays back what it is to the computer games. With movie character Alice joined by Jill Valentine, Oded Fehr's Carlos and The Nemesis we get some cheesy one liners, and the plot of Escape from NY embedded in the events happening right after the first movie left off. Did we like it? Well you will need to pull up a chair and find out 5/10
Send a text SEOUL STATION – 2016 written and directed by Yeon Sang-ho. who wrote and directed all three Busan movies. It is the second released installment in the Train to Busan film series, and a prequel of its eponymous film, the aeni (South Korean animation) explores how the zombie epidemic began in South Korea before the latter's events,and revolves around the three main characters; Hye-sun, a young woman and prostitute who is attempting to survive in the world who sees her as disposable,...
Send a text A man takes extreme steps to protect Maggie, his daughter, who is slowly turning into a cannibal after a zombie attack. He spends time with her, reminiscing about her childhood, dreading the future. It stars Arnold scharzenegger, joely Richardson and Abigail Breslin in the title role as Maggie. Although I have time for all three – esp Breslin in the Zombielands, final girl and little miss sunshine I have been putting off watching this because it looked over sentimental. Arnie in a...

Send a text Not a lot is written about this 2004 movie for a reason. The cast and crew appear nowhere online in headshot form for a reason. Conceptually it is an ok premise. The hadron collider has an unexpected dump of radiation. A team led by the chief scientist is heading down into it and 4 twenty something junior scientists volunteer to monitor it for the weekend. The radiation causes the research team to turn into zombies, and the volunteers need to escape the tunnels of the institute w...
Send a text Zompocalypse Therapy Sessions Follows Erica, an agoraphobic therapist, and her anxious clients who must fight to overcome their personal problems and the zompocalypse. Erica is a therapist with problems. In particular, the walking dead. She doesn't know what to advise clients in zombie situations. Between the zombie-virus lockdown and her agoraphobia, she's afraid to leave the house. Her husband Bob is cranky about being confined with her, and a zombie attack doesn't improve his m...
Send a text During Thailand's WWII involvement, a Japan-engineered chemical weapon creates a voracious superhuman horde of Thai soldiers leaving a blood-soaked path of ultra-violence and destruction. Yet the greatest victims are the abject undead themselves. Friendships, dreams, and lives devoured... nothing remains. The trailer looked good for this one so I grabbed on blu ray as there was no other alternative. The gore looked good, the zombies looked good in a Far Eastern fast movie Korean ...
Send a text You remember those meals where you didn't really have everything you needed? Maybe it was a few days before payday and you need to make something with what you have? So you have kosher chicken hot dog wieners, Marinara sauce and 2 minute noodles for dinner? Well this movie from 2015 is that meal. In a town where Dennis Leary's factory dominates the skyline, and he sponsors everything, using the money he makes from selling the Ribblet, a processed meat product with a chemical foun...
Send a text 1983/4 and a Troma effort back when a Troma effort looked on par with the likes of Zombie Flesh Eaters, Zombie Creeping Flesh and Zombie 4: After Death. In this movie a group of American tourists unwittingly fall foul of unseen forces on a small island after witnessing a voodoo ritual. Some gore, a couple of jumps, but a lot of nonsense otherwise. Is this a zombie movie? Until the payoff. But, should I be hard on it for that? Maybe. Unhuman was also not really zombies, Summ...
Send a text In this festive time Michael and I talk gifts, and the gift that is the 28 Years Later trailer that dropped this week and made the online horror community wet themselves. In short, we are both excited, but not convinced. After all, it is no Pro Wrestlers vs Zombies. How dare you!
Send a text We do this from time to time, we see a movie that we need to discuss. Despite it being a B-movie set in Brighton, with annoying students, bad CGI helicopters and arguably the worst sound mix of any movie, there is enough there to like. Infected (2021) or Darkest Day (2015). It was no Pro Wrestlers v Zombies. How dare you! 4.5/10
Send a text Looked very 28 Days later in the trailer In a country ravaged by a deadly virus that has triggered a zombie apocalypse, the military is on the hunt for the man rumoured to have the cure Well, I am getting a bit of déjà vu here - much like the movie Zombies!f from 2016 Which was repackaged as Zombie Christmas Apocalypse in 2024 this is actually the 2015 movie Darkest Day And, more déjà vu, on IMDB 3/10 Its your average low budget zombie conspiracy. Acting, filming and directi...
Send a text 3.4/10 in IMDB 20% on rotten tomatoes What did people say? A sadistic, immoral film that is utterly contemptible and repulsive. To say this is sick cinema without any redeeming elements at all is an understatement. The beginning sequence is one of the most morally offensive ever filmed. The consumption of a living child by a zombie, dining on the innocent's stomach while the child blinks his eyes uncomprehendingly, is the definition of torture porn and possibly the sickest sort of...
Send a text I had been looking forward to this one, to be fair. Handling the Undead (2024) based on a novel by John Linqvist who brought us Let the Right One In, a clever and modern take on the vampire story. Scandi, arty, modern, starring Anders Lie from one of our favourites The Night Eats the World about the dead coming back. It had the right ingredients but this was not a zombie movie. It was a treatise on grief, told through three depressing, slow stories all linked to an unexplained eve...
Send a text Ok, we finally made it through the confusing world of Paul W S Anderson's Resident Evil, an inconsistent bag of cat if ever there was one.
Send a text And it is finally here. We have managed to survive 14 years of the T-virus with Alice and a host of heroes and villains that changed more than the weather. Paul W S Anderson flip flopping constantly, we have one villainous doctor in this movie, then a different one the next movie, we have number of computer game heroes this movie, and they aren't even mentioned in the next. It was all a big mess and if anything, it shows that one person should have total control of a franchise, wi...
Send a text Silent Zone, a 2025 horror movie about a post-apocalyptic world where people have been turned into savage, zombie-like creatures called ferals. A resourceful teenager, Abigail, and her protector, Cassius, fight for survival against the ferals. The film follows their journey as they encounter other survivors and face relentless dangers. 5.9/10 IMDB so not bad at all. or In a zombie-ravaged world, a resourceful teen and her protector fight for survival, facing relentless dange...
Send a text Festival of the Living Dead is a 2024 American zombie movie made by the Soska Sisters Jen and Sylvia. So the sisters also made American Mary, a remake of Cronenberg’s Rabid, and a few WWE funded movies. None of which I will, and none of which I have intention to see. Quite bombastically it is labelled as the spiritual successor to the game changing George A Romero 1968 night of the living dead. No one in their right mind would really link any movie, no matter how great they ...
