We screened this movie yesterday at my work. This definitely is the most awesome, weirdest and by far most amusing zombie film I've seen this year. It's not a standard zombiefilm, it's a movie about a gay zombie (or is he?). There's a movie being made about him by some underground avant-garde lesbian cinematographer, while she's making her years-in-the-making political gay-zombie-pornmovie "Up With Dead People".
There's quite some gore, which is all very well done, Otto eats roadkill, which had some people on the verge of puking (while my colleagues and I were on the verge of tears from laughing ). There's a zombie fucking another zombie's stomach too by the way. The whole movie is just so unbelievably cool. The humour is very dark at times, while at other times, it's almost slapstick like (in a good way ).
I was very, very, VERY surprised by this movie, I had not expected to find myself this involved in the story of what I thought would be a really weird freak of a film. It actually is really good
Thus, I must conclude: 10/10
Oh, before I forget, it has quite a lot of male nudity and lots of gay people making out, so if you're a homophobe, don't bother.
