I'd love to hear from my dear listeners. Recommend a zombie movie or show I haven't covered, or some on and chat all things zeke. Or just like and share.

It is one of those rare occasions, recently only seen when the 28 Years Later and Colony came out that Michael and I are right up to date with a new movie in the genre, so we have to record a chat.

TBH when it was announced that Zac Cregger (Weapons, Barbarian) was taking on Res Evil I was skeptical, and even when the trailers and teasers started to appear, I was skeptical. So what did I think? And would Michael regret taking his eldest son to go and see it?

Is it as bad or good as Super Mario Brothers, Max Payne, or Doom? You will have to find out.

I have been waiting for something decent for such a long time that I went to the movie theater to see Zac Cregger's attempt at Resident Evil. I can see what he was trying to do, there are definitely computer game-like setups, the woods, the road tunnel, the hospital parking garage and elevator shaft, not to mention the barn puzzle to lock the dog inside. I can also see why people hated it. Personally if Paul Hauser's infinitely annoying and wholly unnecessary comedic character hadn't said he worked for Umbrella, and if the nurse hadn't said the green bag of something needed to go to Raccoon City General Hospital you would have been hard pressed to think it was Resident anything. And everything that happened in the lab just infuriated me.

As a stand alone movie there was enough to like for me to give it a 7/10 with possible recalibration when Micheal watches it at the weekend. Zombie Family felt like an elongated and poorly received SNL skit, even with genre legends Doug Jones and Tony Todd in it, but the real news is the second Apocalypse Z movie coming out at the end of October. The first movie I also scored 7/10 and would edge it over Cregger's effort if I had to pick one over the other.
