RATING: A-
The zombie genre is one that is near and dear to my heart, and nothing pleases me more than a good zombie movie. You might ask; what is the criteria for a “good” zombie picture exactly? Well, it can be one of two elements really. 1: intelligent use of social and political satire, or 2: a creative, over-the-top and clever mix of gore and kick-ass fun. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead had the first element, Ruben Fleischer’s Zombieland has the second, and a whole lot of it.
