Last night I finally made myself watch Warm Bodies and just as suspected...Nope. Almost turned if off towards the end. It's not that I don't appreciate the message that love can save us all, it's sweet, but it has no place in a zombie movie. At least not in the sense that it can save the undead. The fx were ok but I just couldn't get over the lack of zombie like behavior from the zombies. It was cheesy and silly and just didn't cut it for this horror fan.
If you want to check out a really good zombie-turned-hero film, watch Fido. Billy Connelly is fantastic, as is the rest of the cast. The film as a whole doesn't shy away from it's slightly cheesy theme, it embraces it and a quirky little gem is the result. Loved this movie!
