Movie Review: Zoombies


Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you found this entry.  Today I'm watching the 2016, and future Bottom 100 flick, Zoombies!  "When a strange virus quickly spreads through a safari park and turns all the zoo animals undead, those left in the park must stop the creatures before they escape and zombify the whole city."  It stars Ione Butler, Andrew Asper and LaLa Nestor.  I don't know how this flick can have such a low rating, which is 3.5 as of 6/5/16. Looking for pictures I can't find many pics online.  However lets get into this fantastic flick!

  • Eden?  Say it a few more times!
  • That koala already looks zombified!
  • Ha ha monkey around
  • Zip line and waterfall, those will be come into play at some point
  • That is one dead "monkey"...I think it was suppose to be a monkey...the CG was...well weird
  • Did you see that "animal" it was creepy as sin, should have left it "dead"
  • Cool monkeyvision!
  • Do monkeys know their own names?
  • Goodbye Robin, damn your eyes
  • Wow the acting/dialog in this flick is great!  Deserves the 3.5 it has right now
  • Bedtime?  It looks to be about noon as bright as it is!
  • Not a lot of alert in his voice
  • That is quite the smug smile
  • True, not Jurassic Park, that was a well written and acted flick!  BAM!
  • Lots of bloody handprints all over the room...why?
  • Is the monkey inside him?
  • MORE MONKEYVISION!!
  • Worst security guards ever!
  • Toward the Elephants of course
  • You're worried about the animals?  Half a dozen people are dead sunshine
  • Horrible one liners in this flick
  • Why do they always say it is not a drill?  
  • So headshots don't kill them huh?
  • Why doesn't the director chick see the....nevermind now she does
  • Amber is screwed....I have no idea what animal that was
  • Is the infection airborne now?  Is that how so many are getting infected
  • Oh dear lord...that koala looks fucked up!
  • You have to actually hit the buttons to be able to unlock it
  • Wow that little girl just kicked the shit out of that zoombie koala
  • Here I thought the gorilla would be like the T-Rex in Jurassic Park
  • So the brand new zip line is breaking?  Two of the lines?  Really?
  • I still don't understand why they didn't just kill all the birds
  • Still better bird effects then Birdemic
  • Why haven't we seen a Rhino yet?  Now that would have been cool
  • Kifo is PISSED!
  • Kifo is STILL pissed
Well that was there.  I will give it a 4/10.

Let me say a few things here.  I actually like the story.  It is similar to the TV show Zoo, with animals taking over the world.  The story itself is actually fun and the acting, once they got rid of the initial zoombie fodder, wasn't actually bad.  Not great but not horrible either.

The CGI however was god awful, I mean just bad.  The scene with the lions chasing the jeep was maybe one of the worst things I've seen since the Birdemic birds!  While looking up the production cost I see this is an Asylum flick...of course it was!  I should have known!

Overall not a bad way to waste 90 minutes.  Nothing ground breaking but nothing (besides the CGI) that makes you want to gouge your own eyes out.  If you're bored and have 90 minutes check it out, it is on Netflixs at the moment.  Until next time.....
