Campfires, going to senior parties, and girls. That’s you would normally think about if you were a junior in high school still in scouts. Ben (Tye Sheridan), Carter (Logan Miller), and Augie (Joey Morgan) have been best friends for years since they first joined scouts. While Augie is getting his Condor Patch, the highest achievement a scout can get; Ben and Carter think it’s about time they leave scouts, since they are going into their junior year and don’t want to be seen as dorks. However after ditching Augie the two set out to find the secret senior party where Carter’s sister Kendall (Halston Sage) is at and Ben is all for it. However Ben begins to notice some abnormal things in town, like their scout master (David Koechner) not showing up for the campfire and the town being completely abandoned. The two make a pit stop and run into some trouble at a strip club, much to Carters delight due to the bouncer being mysteriously gone from the door. Unfortunately the two get a little more than a lap dance when they come face to face with the source of all the odd behavior, Zombies. Luckily they befriend Denise (Sarah Dumont) a cocktail waitress from the club and the three of them plus Augie set out on a mission to save Kendall before the government decides what to do to the zombie infested town.
From Christopher B. Landon comes Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse. With Landon being most known for working on the Paranormal Activity franchise, this movie is a bit of a change from his usual work. Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is exactly what you would want from a comedy horror movie obviously targeting young adults. It has witty lines, zombies, and attractive leads. While the movie sometimes boarders the lines of too campy, I feel it balances well. While the whole concept of the film is silly, it is executed in a brilliant way and thankfully they don’t rely heavily on dick jokes.
I was fortunate enough to be able to go the Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse Ultimate Fan Experience. They gave shirts to everyone who attended and the excitement could be felt while in the room with avid zombie film fanatics. However at the beginning of the film it showed a special piece of film just for the event, and it was awful. Ten minutes of Dillion Francis’s zombie cameo in a music video that never seemed to end. While some enjoyed it most of the audience sighed with relief when it was over. That has to be my only concern with the event, and thankfully it was for the fan experience and more than likely will not be in the actual film showings (General public you are saved). I would recommend this movie for people who enjoy campy horror films, since by all means this film is anything but serious. Also would not recommend of young children, there is some nudity.
I would give this film a 3.5/5 stars. While it was a fun film that kept me laughing for most of it; that fan experience clip definitely was a disaster. I would definitely watch the

Warm bodies, warm hearts
Described to me as the Zombie twilight, I would actually say twilight is the vampire version of Warm bodies. I adore anything post apocalyptic and whilst this is a bit more romantic than I normally like this book hit the spot wonderfully!
Full of twists and turns, heart rendering moments. Urgh, I just can't express how much I loved this book.
Would 10/10 recommend for anyone who needs a good book to curl up with.

I rewatched this film the other night, and I honestly had forgotten how funny this was. It's a great horror comedy, and it still makes me laugh. It's definitely my favorite zombie movie. Edgar Wright's direction completely works, and it's an impressive first movie. I also love Simon Pegg in this movie, but I think I love him in every film.
I think I send gifs from this movie all of the time to my friends to express my feelings.

Just watched the second hatchet movie more of the same from Victor crowley as he takes on hunters who have come into his swamp looking for him with the survivor of the first film. Not as good as the first film but plenty of gore and some nasty kills bigger role this time from Tony Todd as rev zombie. But the real star once again is kane hodder as Victor . Thumbs up from me

Liked these movies always wanted to know what was gonna happen to alice next and this movie kinda brings closure to the series Milla jovovich plays alice one last time. Not the best resident evil and not the worst the movie suffers too much from trying to end to many storylines butthats my only issue with the movie zombie effects are great as usual if this is the last movie ito sure went out with a bang

This film was billed as 'Shaun of the Dead meets LaLa Land'... Well, I really disliked LaLa Land (unpopular opinion) and Shaun of the Dead is one of my favorite films, so I was cautiously optimistic.
It was very entertaining overall, and did make me audibly laugh (which rarely happens). It was definitely full of zombie gore, and Anna was definitely worthy of being the title character. And, since I found the music in LaLa Land not great, this film's music surpassed it.
