Zombies 101

It Stains the Sands Red (2017)

Paul Brian McCoy
September 27, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
This is a film that lives or dies on the performance of the lead, and Allen brings hidden depths to the role and owns every scene.

Peelers (2016)

Paul Brian McCoy
June 30, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Yes, for a zombie movie set in a strip club that features waterworks and farting to music, Peelers is remarkably conservative at times.

7 Popular Zombie Survival Tactics That Will Get You Killed

Mike Johnson
May 4, 2017
Zombies 101
How long do you think you can last during a zombie apocalypse?

Night of the Living Dead 30th Anniversary Edition

Dan Lee
April 28, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
I bought a VHS copy of this movie in 2003 for five bucks at a local thrift shop because it sounded amazing at the time.

EZMM 2017 Day 9: Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 18, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Ultimately, I didn't really feel that Pride and Prejudice and Zombies really brought all that much to the table beyond the novelty of its source material.

EZMM 2017 Day 8: The Girl with All the Gifts (2017)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 17, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
The Girl with All the Gifts is one of the most original takes on the zombie apocalypse genre I've seen in years and a joy from start to finish.

EZMM 2017 Day 7: Train to Busan (2016) & Seoul Station (2016)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 16, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
South Korean writer/director Yeon Sang-Ho has crafted two of the strongest zombie films in recent memory, and he did them back-to-back.

EZMM 2017 Day 6: What We Become (2015) & Freaks of Nature (2015)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 15, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
We chose to stick to the year 2015, which gave us an odd mix of super-serious and the super-goofy with What We Become and Freaks of Nature.

EZMM 2017 Day 5: From Parts Unknown: Fight Like a Girl (2015)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 14, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Fight Like a Girl suffered from money problems, technical problems, and personnel problems.

EZMM 2017 Day 4: Maniac Cop 3: Badge of Silence (1993) & Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated (2009)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 13, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Well, they can't all be gold.

EZMM 2017 Day 3: Make-Out with Violence (2008) & Maniac Cop 2 (1990)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 12, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Make-Out with Violence is a moody, indie horror-romantic-coming-of-age-tale, and Maniac Cop 2 is, well he's an undead maniac and he kills cops!

EZMM 2017 Day 2: The Mad (2007) & Flight of the Living Dead (2007)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 11, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Day two of our Easter Zombie Movie Marathon takes us to the year 2007, with two very middle-of-the-pack type of zombie films.

EZMM 2017 Day 1: The Midnight Hour (1985) & Maniac Cop (1988)

Paul Brian McCoy
April 10, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
The cast is great, the concept is great, and the grit and grime of 80s New York is great.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2017)

Paul Brian McCoy
January 30, 2017
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
The Final Chapter uses a darker palate with heavier shadows, more jump scares (seriously, a shit ton of jump scares), and a more frenetic editing style that usually undercuts the impact of the action scenes.

The Walking Dead 7.01 “The Day Will Come When You Won’t Be”

Paul Brian McCoy
October 24, 2016
Reviews, TV, Zombies 101
Well, that was traumatizing.

Advance Review: The Stray (2016)

Paul Brian McCoy
May 31, 2016
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
The storytelling is lean and economical, with the visuals giving you all the information you need to see what's going on psychologically with our main character.

The Walking Dead 6.16 “Last Day on Earth”

Paul Brian McCoy
April 8, 2016
Reviews, TV, Zombies 101
It would literally take a concerted effort to fuck this up.
3.0

The Walking Dead 6.15 “East”

Paul Brian McCoy
April 1, 2016
Reviews, TV, Zombies 101
So Carol decides to walk the earth like Kane from Kung Fu, trying not to murder people, but failing miserably.
3.0

EZMM 2016 Day 9: Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer (2012)

Paul Brian McCoy
March 29, 2016
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer is ugly and weird, does disgusting things, and is bloody, raunchy, and offensive.
2.8

EZMM 2016 Day 8: Re-Kill (2015)

Paul Brian McCoy
March 28, 2016
Movies, Reviews, Zombies 101
Overall, Re-Kill is a solid action zombie film but it's fairly one-note when we're following the Re-Kill Cops (R-Division) in the field.
