Recap:
An airplane is contaminated with radiation, and after the touchdown a horde of zombies unboards. A journalist witnesses this and tries to warn the people with a newsbreak, but his boss takes him off the air because the military wants to keep the whole thing covered. So they switch back to the daytime schedule which soon is interrupted by a live broadcast of zombies feeding on a bunch of dancers.
Sounds promising, doesn’t it? I really thought wow, this is one splendid satire. File it as comedy, no wait, don’t. For a comedy it’s got a little too much gore. However, this movie starts with an incredible velocity, and the zombies are guano crazy. They are strong, they are fast, they use weapons.
Q: how can this movie keep up its speed?
A: it doesn’t. The movie introduces a bunch of supporting characters and then forgets about them and then returns to them to kill them. Then the girlfriend or wife of the journalist says all the pseudo intellectual blahblah that they apparently wanted to have in the script, then he slaps her in the face, which makes the feminist bitch horny as hell…. Wut? Well, yes, to tell the truth, the movie industry is dominated by morons. They wanted to make cash with just another zombie movie, so they made a list of tropes they could use and created something that resembled a story. I bet when they found out that one third of the film was brilliant they said “way cool! One third is so much more than we could ever have hoped for!” and the sad thing is: they were right. The One-eyed is king among the blind. So I guess when I give 3* for brainless braineater movies because they are good enough to fix our zombie cravings, then I must give this one 4*. I do so reluctantly, though.
