Zoombies (2015)
Rated: NR/TV-14
This movie is B-Rate gold! (But not nearly as amazing as Zombeavers, there was a serious lack of animatronics compared to Zombeavers. Animatronics are an instant win in my book). But you do get everything from zombie monkeys to zombie giraffes and zombie lions to kolas! You name it and becomes a zombie in this movie!
The premise of this movie is that an isolated animal safari accidentally turns monkeys into zombies. Once these monkeys break out of the lab all chaos breaks out.
The acting is actually not that bad and the writing was better than expected. But this is still a B-rate movie.
The computer graphics are terrible in this movie. When I say terrible I mean extremely terrible. And they rely too much on computer animation. I miss the old days of animatronics and practical effects. This movie had a lot of potential to use these techniques but didn’t even try to use them. Even the gore is mainly computer graphics. IMDB has this listed with a TV rating so I am wondering if this is a factor into the lack of gore and that it is mainly cg’ed. Trying to google this movie title to look into it more didn’t help. The searches just came up with zombie movies in general. Part of my lower rating is because of the graphics.
