9/10
Out of all the recent efforts in the genre, this one stands out (in a good way)

Warning: Spoilers
This is a great movie. I saw it cold, unsolicited and had never heard or read anything about it. I just sort of, stumbled upon it I guess.

Spoilers- First things first, this is a different movie than any I had encountered before (and since have seen once through Warm Bodies). You follow the characters that have been turned into zombies through some infected soft-serve and beer. Not terribly believable, but still funny, and this film is at its heart a comedy.

The way the film shows humans reacting from their point of view (like they are in fast-forward) is genius in my opinion. And drunk humans are able to understand them. Just pure genius.

Cinematography was good. The use of black and white and color shots made complete and total sense, and definitely improved the viewing experience.

Acting is pretty bad with some of the ancillary characters, but they take on an overall B horror movie aesthetic intentionally, so it fits.

Don't come in here expecting a special effects blockbuster or a scary story. However, the story was good. I didn't think anything made no sense, which is a rare thing in the genre.

Definitely worth the watch, and worth purchasing.
