While Original In Concept, Fails On Delivery for 3/4 Of The Movie
Contains spoilers, click to show
This movie was a real let down for how it was hyped up by critics and movie reviewers. I mean I don't know why I let myself get excited when the premise is that the main character is dealing with one lone zombie. The main character Molly was also a character that I initially saw as annoying and hard to empathize with so it made most of the movie hard to watch. The special effects or movie makeup for the zombie wasn't that well done either for it being one zombie so that also stopped me from being fully immersed in the movie. There were times where I hated this character for being so stupid and never making good decisions or right choices in her survival. For being in the desert she drinks her water way too fast and never thinks about rationing it, she almost gets bit while stopping to do cocaine, she almost gets bit for going back for a bottle of vodka, and she ultimately gets bit for wanting to keep the zombie with her after she grows attached to it. Still as the movie went on and as the character Molly dealt with her ordeals one after the other, I couldn't help but want to root for her survfival. To me really the film only got better at the end when she gets to the airfield. As the movie had been going she spoke to the zombie and we learned more about her which made it easier to understand her motivations and that she had a child that she abandoned to be raised by her sister. Now that she has been through some things she wants to survive and get to this child so she can protect him. And that's when her attitude changes and she's not going to let anything stop her. To me though it was too little too late and the way the movie ended was a big disapointment as well. Just when it was getting good. I have to give this movie a 4/10. While there were parts that were good and some decent zombie scenes at the end the majority of the movie was a bore as the character monologues to a singular zombie the whole time and eventualyy tames/domesticates it taking away the fear that it's ever going to eat her. Way below average zombie movie.

Blank Frank by Brian Eno

(0 Ratings)

Track

"Blank Frank’ is a song that manages to be super-modern and futuristic even though it’s about forty years old now. It’s from Here Come The Warm Jets, which is one of my favourite records of all time and I got into it when I was about fourteen or fifteen. It was very challenging, it was quite arty and some of it’s abrasive, but because I loved Roxy Music I was into investing some time in it and forty odd years later it’s definitely a Desert Island Disc for me. It’s partly because it’s so full of ideas, but also because it could only have come out of the UK. “I think all great art represents its environment; Jasper Johns is an obvious one because he used a flag, but if you look at the Pop Art movement it feels like Manhattan in the 60s’, the LA 60s’ art scene doesn’t look anything like the East Coast art scene. You could say exactly the same thing for Hip Hop, I think anything that’s informed by its environment is interesting and is usually pretty good. “Here Come The Warm Jets would be really quite an interesting record if it came out now, the vocals are very, very British. You know the word ‘arch’? I think arch is something that Americans don’t really do and I’m not saying that with any sense of nationalism, I think that for good and bad arch is a particularly British trait, it’s kind of intellectual, it’s remote and it’s not earnest. People often think that’s a bad thing and that music - and singing in particular - has got to be from the heart, or else it’s not authentic. “The X-Factor and talent shows have done so much damage to singing and the art of songwriting, because the basic premise is the more emotive a thing is the more quality it’s got and that’s complete nonsense. Siouxsie Sioux isn’t about that and ‘Blank Frank’ totally exemplifies it, it’s still a great rocking track but its arch and arty, it’s quite intellectual but it’s still engaging. “One of the reasons I picked a lot of these songs is because they were part of my formative years and a theme running through this is the UK in the 70s’. The idea of it being this sea of beige and brown with terrible haircuts and power cuts was a little part of it, but when you put all these records together, particularly Brian Eno and Roxy Music, it tells a completely different story."
