Film La Horde (Zombies!)

[Bahumat]

Saw Vasco's thread and it reminded me of a very very good zombie film I watched recently. It's french with subtitles, but the characters are amazing.
What I loved most was the fact it starts off with some cops going to a drug hideout to arrest them....then the zombies turn up. This gives the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" spin which works great.

The other thing was the fight scenes. Some go on for a while so it's great to see them beat the crap out of a zombie haha!

Oh one thing I will say, it's beautifully shot. I think they use one of those filters to reduce/take out the blue, or maybe they gave it a grey feel...but it just works perfectly

Oh and the old guy they meet was such a funny character

i usually really enjoy zombie films, but i thought this was a complete load of poopies :\

 

[Bahumat]

How comes?

 

[eksdee]

hard to put my finger on it really! i just found the story completely uninspired, the characters a rehash of very basic and over-used archetypes and thought the acting was horrible. i was certainly entertained for the first 30mins or so, but after that my mind really wondered and i wasn't engaged at all.

i realise these are pretty flimsy gripes to have with a zombie film, given the subject matter, but still!

I thought how it was all based in a fairly small location worked well, plus I liked how although the characters had a cheese'ness to them, they played the roles very well. Also I enjoyed seeing them kick the zombies asses
