Kill Zombie! (2012)

Absolutely brilliant

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

KILL ZOMBIE!, aka ZOMBIBI, is a Dutch addition to the zombie sub-genre. The story sees a group of characters forced to battle for survival after a crashed spaceship brings an alien virus to Earth and turns much of the population into slime-spewing zombies. Will the humans manage to survive the undead onslaught? Sadly, KILL ZOMBIE! turns out to be an entirely juvenile effort, one that tries too hard to be successful.It's an over the top comedy in which the zombie encounters are played for outright laughs and one outrageous kill scene follows another. The characters swap insults and jokes and reference the likes of SCARFACE while getting covered in green goo as they splatter the living dead.Despite the fast pace and the level of energy involved in this production it's a rather undemanding and unappealing affair. The comic book look and feel of the movie is predictable and there's little incident that hasn't been done before and better. Some of the actors are okay but as a whole KILL ZOMBIE! is an underwhelming film.

Okay, so I just watched 'Zombibi'. This with reading the reviews on IMDb first. And I have to say: the acting of the cast is as bad as the acting of a 3-year old, because of the low-budget the special effects will make you cry and some shots in which they shoot zombies are used twice in the movie. But this actually makes the movie even funnier then before. And you won't only be laughing because of these things, there are as well a lot of funny jokes, funny scenes and so on.Yet you have to know it is a Dutch movie, so they talk Dutch but you can get it underlined in English. Except for that I believe people from The Netherlands will like this movie even more because of the famous Dutch people in the cast and the familiar places in Amsterdam where the scenes in this movie were shot. So the only thing i can say now is: just watch it! Tiemen, The Netherlands

Anything that just remotely smells like zombie and I will watch it. And I happened to fall over "Zombibi" (or "Kill Zombie!" as it was oddly enough labeled on the DVD cover) on Amazon and had to put my decaying fingers on it. And with good reason, because "Zombibi" turned out to be quite good and loads of fun actually.Mind you that this is a Dutch movie, but you shouldn't be discouraged by that fact. The zombies don't seem to mind, why should you? A satellite crashes in downtown Amsterdam, bringing with it some kind of unidentified green slime which turns people into raging zombies with a hunger for flesh. Aziz who has just been fired from his work end up in prison with his brother and two other criminals when havoc falls upon Amsterdam from outer space. Waking up the next morning, the entire city is turned upside down. Amidst the chaos, Aziz gets a distress call from the woman he fancies, and he have to head back to his former workplace to save her, but the road there is perilous and full of obstacles."Zombibi" is fast paced and has a marvelous mix of comedy and horror put together and it works out quite well. Sure, it is not "Shaun of the Dead" material, but still, it is quite good. The movie will have you laughing and cheering, and for us zombie fans, there will be some nice enough gore moments too.The characters in "Zombibi" are so stereotypical that it just makes you laugh because it is so outrageous. And it works out well that it is done this way, bringing some self-irony to the movie. And the people they cast for the roles were doing great jobs. I have only seen one or two other Dutch movies prior to this one, so I can't claim to be familiar with anyone in the movie, so all new faces that have no prior roles attached to them was quite good.I can warmly recommend "Zombibi" to you, especially if you like zombie movies that is spiced up with comedy. It is a good jab at the zombie genre to come out of the Netherlands.

The Dutch making a zombie movie... That's like Americans making a movie about cheese. Still there's a lot to enjoy in Zombibi. First of all, with a very modest budget of about € 500.000 the picture looks great. The actors do what they can to entertain and although you cannot always understand what they're saying, you never get bored. To see Amsterdam turn into a zombie zone is also very nice for a change. Actress Gigi Ravelli, known in Holland for her role in the soap GTST, is very funny as a kick-ass cop. Overall it's the story that lets you down. A man wants to rescue a girl and must travel across Amsterdam to do so. The finale is in a skyscraper in Amsterdam Zuidoost, the place where also an alien spaceship crashed that caused this zombie outbreak anyway. Our heroes must fight themselves into the building and save the day. In terms of zombies we have seen it all before and the fact that this one takes place in Holland is a novelty that soon wears off. Yes, this movie goes over the top, or it least tries to. But in the end the film remains pretty safe and ends in standard mode. Makes you wonder what kind of movie somelone like Paul Verhoeven would've made out of it. I think Zombibi was a nice attempt to make a zombie comedy and it's clear that making it was pure fun. But with more black humour and sick jokes it could have been something special.7/10
