I honestly have no clue who this film is for. Whoever they are, they're likely to walk out of the theater wanting a refund.

While directors Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion want to have their laughs and horror, too, the film is something of a zombie itself: half-alive and bloody, but lacking any heart.

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Rotten
What could have been an amusing and entertaining zombie flick is, instead, a slog.
