A reckless janitor accidentally releases a zombie from a laboratory of research. Meanwhile, the teenagers scouts Ben Goudy and Carter Grant decide to camp for the last time since they are too old to be scouts. The problem is that they do not want to harm the feelings of their friend Augie Foster and the Scout Leader Rogers. They have a flat tire after hitting a deer on the road and Carter's sister Kendall Grant, her boyfriend and her friend Chloe stop their Jeep to see whether they need a ride. They invite Ben and Carter to go to a party in the night. The two scouts leave the camping during the night to go to the party. When they drive through the town, they do not see a living soul and they decide to visit a night-club since the bouncer is not at the door. They discover that people have turned into zombies and they team-up with Ben's recent acquaintance Denise Russo, who is bartender in the nightclub, and Augie that was left alone at the camp and came to the town. Soon they discover ... Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Oh movie clichés. I could go on about all the carbon copies of Superbad since its release. Pretty much every coming of age highschool nerdy white kid movie has the same exact set of jokes. The slo mo scene with the emphasis on the nerdy features of the characters set to gangster rap.. the plentiful amount of dick jokes. The epic highschool kid party that would upstage most celebrities (Neighbors, 21 Jump Street, anything with Dave Franco really).
Then you have the zombie film clichés. Dimwitted completely harmless zombies that cannot kill a bunch of pubescent teens yet managed to wipe out a town. Flawless head shots through out (of course, only after the almost immediate realization that you have to shoot them in the head).
There isn't much new here.. beyond that character development does actually show itself to be decent and you may find at least one of the main cast to be like able.
VERDICT: If you love these types of movies then I am sure you will like this. If you spot these clichés and roll your eyes because it is the millionth time you have seen them in the last decade pass this one.
