A.K.A. Ibiza Undead
Really, had NOTHING to do with Spring Break. The English don't have Spring Breaks. They have Holidays. |
I hate zombie movies. In the early days, they were brainless slaves drugged up or under mind control. Then Romero came in and turned them into brain eaters, though I don't think the word 'zombie' was ever used in the that film. They were boring, staggering, uncharasmatic dullards that I never feared. It wasn't until the 2000's turned them into insanely fast, strong, and tough-to-kill blood thirsty maniacs. In short, they had to crank them up to make them slightly scary or interesting. That's why it's difficult to watch ANY zombie movie......
....unless it's a comedy...maybe... That brings us to this film. An Engilsh 'zomedy' film centered in the Mediterranean. Some bloke thought running a night club using zombies dancing on stages would be the best asset, so he buys a ship full of them. Sadly, the ship sinks and the cargo....well, it just starts walking to the shore. In the mean time, 3 turds and a woman from England decide to holiday at that same island. What are the chances, right?
From there, it's all about survival with a little bit of dark humor thrown in. Truthfully, I never laughed out loud, but I might have smiled once. It's not a great, or even good movie. But it's not a bad movie either. Like most zombie movies, it's a 90 minute time waster.
Wednesday: I guess it is technically the start of the Holiday Season.....
