It’s really a ridiculous premise: a group of young Cockney toughs are simply trying to rob a bank when, bam, here comes the zombie apocalypse. They fight of the walkers with some understandable difficulty but eventual success, and end up, somehow, at an old folks’ home that’s populated by aging Cockney toughs from two generations back… and damn, can those old folks kick ass.
Yes, it’s kind of kitsch. But if you’re a true zomfan, or you have a kindred spirit, what could be more fun than this walkin’ dead version of the classic trio? Four inches tall, made by Pacific Giftware, it’s 8 inches long, 3 1/2 inches deep and 6 inches high. Perfect for a gift shelf or over your ever-present computer.
Not everybody loves this movie – you can look at the Rotten Tomatoes and MetaCritic numbers and see that – and part of its appeal is definitely just the name and notion. Come on: zombie cheerleaders. You have to love it. But we tend to agree with the WeGotThisCovered review, who called it “mindless and contrived”, but also admitted it was a “witching, bitching good time…”
