Zombie Movie tells the story of three friends Darryn (Des Morgan), Sam (co-writer, producer & director Ben Stenbeck) & Paul (Simon Niblett) who finds themselves trapped in a car surrounded by flesh eating zombies & out of gas. Over the next few they have to try & find a way to find safety & as they run out of cigarettes & things become more desperate relations start to get strained...
This New Zealand production is a fifteen minute (including opening & closing credits) black comedy/horror & to be honest it's an inoffensive way to pass a quarter of an hour but it's hardly anything special despite it's neat central premise & because of it's short duration it doesn't leave much of an impression & simply doesn't have time to tell any significant story. Having said that it's watchable, it moves along at a decent pace & has an amusing ending. It's surprisingly well made with good, if underused, zombie make-up effects & it has good production values with decent nicely lit photography & acting. I'm not sure how anyone would get to see this film & to be frank it's not really worth spending any amount of energy or money on tracking down but if you can see it on TV for free then you could do a lot worse & it is only fifteen minutes long.
