    Amanda Jean’s Review: Aaah! Zombies!! made things really interesting and new by switching between the point of view of the zombies and the non-infected throughout movie. The zombie bowling match, horrible bloody toupée, zombie make out scene and Thing T. Thing were just icing on the “slightly” green soft serve (which I will never eat again).

    Matt’s Review: Aaah! Zombies!! is unique, and in a world filled with zombie movies that fact alone is pretty impressive. For the first time in any zombie movie (to my knowledge) you get a real inside look at what it’s like to BE a zombie. In Aaah! Zombies!! the characters are actually unaware that they themselves are the living dead so they’re going through their day in the most natural way possible while thinking the world around them is going crazy. A rather brilliant premise, unfortunately the brilliance ends there. In general the film is slow, boring and constantly lost my attention, however there was more than a few really solid laughs sprinkled throughout. Edited down to a 30 minute short, Aaah! Zombies!! could have been hilarious but it just isn’t an interesting feature length film.

    Sorry for the delay in getting this review up, April is a busy time for us! We’re back into the swing of things now and up next week(ish) is Dead Men Walking, I know nothing about this movie… I just randomly got the DVD at a Blockbuster Video closing sale!
