There are enough plot threads left dangling to give us a good launching point for a future second season, but if that doesn’t happen, All of Us Are Dead can stand as a solid one-and-done.

Return of the Living Dead III is, quite simply, one of the best examples of the genre.

Wyrmwood: Apocalypse is definitely a more mature film from definitely more experienced filmmakers.

The House by the Cemetery fails on just about every level as a continuation of the Gates of Hell series.

EZMM 2022 Day 2: The Beyond (1981)

Paul Brian McCoy

There’s a sense of inevitability to the surreal stream of grotesque, violent imagery in The Beyond.

Visually and narratively, Brand New Cherry Flavor is a cornucopia of color, textures, gore, sexuality, and satire.

Blood Quantum satisfies all my zombie film cravings and is one of the strongest genre entries in years.

EZMM 2021 Day 8.2: [Rec] 4: Apocalypse (2014)

Paul Brian McCoy

April 5, 2021 0 5

Anyway, [Rec] 4: Apocalypse is a perfectly fine zombie movie set on a boat.

EZMM 2021 Day 8.1: [Rec] 3: Genesis (2012)

Paul Brian McCoy

April 5, 2021 0

Granted, [Rec] 3: Genesis doesn’t really break new ground, but it is solid at what it does.

EZMM 2021 Day 7.2: [Rec]2 (2009)

Paul Brian McCoy

April 4, 2021 0 4

[Rec] 2 opens with the final shot of the previous film before shifting our focus to a new set of cameras.
