ThiefHott Too much of everything
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Michael Ledo Darryl (Alex Williamson) and Joel (Jim Jefferies) work at the telephone exchange during the zombie apocalypse. They are soon joined by their boss Roy (Greg Fleet) and his daughter Emma (Adele Vuko). Joel and Darryl had recently killed Roy's wife and Darryl spends the whole film attempting to break the news to Roy. They are later joined by two apprentices (Matthew Popp, Andy Trieu ) one of which is the boyfriend of Emma and not liked by her dad.This is an Australian comedy-horror. Our heroes are nonchalant about the zombie issue and care more about trivial aspects in comparison. There is plenty of blood and guts. Most of the humor consists of one liners that work.Guide: F-bomb. Brief sex and nudity.
jbrbsmom Creative funny zombie spoof Has some comedic lines Worth the watch Do not expect too much ...go into it expecting b movie gore, fun, and you will be entertained with this. Creative on a low budget . Along the lines of Shawn of the Dead. The effects are better than average for this genre and the plot is about average. Good laughs along the way and very watchable. It is a better spoof than most. I find that about 90% of this type of movie I cannot even watch and I turn off after ten minutes and this one I actually ENJOYED.
jayneflakes I bought this movie on DVD from the bargain section in a local supermarket, for the princely sum of £3. I did not expect much at that price, but given that I quite like Jim Jefferies, I was prepared to give it a shot.What I was actually presented with was a charming and funny low budget film made by people who clearly love the genre. There are several in jokes throughout the movie and the usual robust Australian humour, all of which made the movie really rather funny in places.However (and be prepared for a spoiler here) the demise of Jefferies is a beautifully silly and funny moment, which did make me laugh. At the end of the movie, the on going conversation between the last surviving cast of Greg Fleet and Alex Williamson is not only funny, but also clever. As Williamson stumbles over his words, it is hard to tell if it is a cleverly written joke or just a very lucky fumble. Either way, it had me laughing again.This is not a high budget movie, it is however made with love. The cast clearly loved every moment and to be honest I rather enjoyed every silly moment. One of which came when Roy (Fleet) is explaining to Darryl (Williamson) why he does not like his daughters's boyfriend this is actually a clever joke and it does put a switch on how we the viewer think about the characters. It is true that this movie is not as sharp as Shaun of the Dead and it is not as bleak as Zombieland, but it does have a charm of it's own. Think back to what it was that we loved about the original Romero movies, those low budget gore fests that were about the love of storytelling, rather than fantastic visuals. This movie has a similar heart in it and although it won't appeal to everyone, it appealed to me and I enjoyed it. Best £3 I have spent in ages.
bazza_mckenzie02 haven't laughed so much in ages an absolute ripper of a film with 3 great comedians leading the way in this top notch horror comedy.A pearler of a film with the right amount of horror and comedy a film that's set to be a classic , Jim Jeffries and Gary Fleet are outstanding and Alex Williamson is tops. One of the funniest films i've seen so many funny lines great comic timing well written script and great work by a young director, 3 tradies trapped in a telephone exchange , beer zombies,comedy what more could you wantcan't wait to watch it again in the nearfuture.give it a crack you won't be sorry top notch stuff.
