Max (Stephen McHattie) and Penelope (TV star Emilie Ullerup) are zombie hunters. They use a directional orb which detects the presence of the undead. Meanwhile two couples are spending a pre-wedding vacation in a cabin. Steve (Kristopher Turner) is an HR rep, a nice guy with a touch of geek. He is going to marry Tina, (Crystal Lowe) a character which reminded me of a flaky Samantha Bee from "The Daily Show." Steve's sister Sarah (Kristen Hager) is going to be the matron of honor. The two women do not get along. Sarah's husband Craig (Shawn Roberts), a down to earth guy, rounds out the foursome.If you look at the cover and read the title you can surmise Steve becomes a zombie, but not a complete zombie. He is a "resistive host" but still craves human brains.The film is more of a comedy with a zombie background. George Buza played his minor role well. The film was fun to watch as the two couples attempt to get along when Steve becomes an issue. "Family takes care of family."Parental Guide: F-bomb. C-word. No sex or nudity. Adult talk. Cat fight.

Yes, it's another zombie movie. However, fair play to the film-makers for at least TRYING to do something a little different (assuming that you haven't seen 'Deadheads' which is a bit like 'A Little Bit Zombie').I guess there are two types of zombie outbreak – the one that consumes the whole world at once and the other than only happens in a localised rural area. In this case we have the latter. While 99% of the world sleeps soundly in their beds, oblivious to the fact that hordes of flesh-eating ghouls are eating people alive in a small town, two couples go on a trip there to plan one of their weddings. And one of them gets infected with the 'zombie virus.' I won't go into how that happened, as, like I say, they do try to be a little different whenever they can. But, as we all know, when you exchange blood with the undead, you begin to turn. However, the man infected doesn't just start tearing apart his party. He's a little more in control than that. A little. So, witnessing his inner turmoil, his friends set out trying to preserve his humanity while doing their best to quench his thirst for human brains.Does it work? Sort of. A few of the acting performances leaves a little to be desired, but, on the whole, the cast are okay. The gore, for those who like seeing heads explode at every possible turn, isn't up to that much. You get the odd 'head shot,' but that's about it. What saves the film from being totally forgotten is the dialogue. The two couples don't really get on well to begin with, let alone when one of their number starts threatening to eat the others alive. Therefore there's quite a lot of nice banter between the four of them which makes it quite humorous to watch.It's a short film, running at less than the standard one and a half hours, but it doesn't really need to be much longer. It's no classic, but it's not that bad either. If you can really stand to sit through another zombie movie (or should I say another 'zom-com' movie?) then you might like it. I read someone else's review online which stated that 'A Little Bit Zombie' is like 'National Lampoon's Eighties Zombie Movie.' That's a pretty good appraisal of the film.http://thewrongtreemoviereviews.blogspot.co.uk/

Not Bad at all. I always felt that the Zombie movie genre always seem to bring out the cleverness in film makers, this movie can be added to that list.It's about a guy who gets infected on the wake of his wedding, but unlike most people he seems to be able to fight his infection. while two zombie hunters attempt to find him and kill him. this guys fiancé, who's desperate to get married embraces what he's becoming and attempts to help him by hunting down his food for him.Like most good zombie movies it's less about the Zombie and more about the social commentary. Everyone believes that Steve's "infection" is just cold feet over the idea of marriage to Tina, who can't wait for the big day. Adding more drama to the plot is Steve's sister Sarah whose not into Tina becoming her Sister-in-law Craig who just for laughs helps Steve confirm weather he's actually becoming a zombie or not.An interesting spin on the zombie movie, as it's treated as a Virus that can be fought off. worth seeing if your a fan of the genre.

*Brace yourself, I don't usually write reviews!Just saw the 'world-premiere' here in Victoria BC. It was definitely a good twist on the "zombie- film"! Nice to see something fresh for a change --The humour was well-timed, and the jokes were pretty witty. The plot and story seemed well thought out, and it kept you entertained and curious right until the end!The acting was a little over the top throughout the film, but it clearly was the tone they were looking for. I thought the music was a little over done too, though, and perhaps the overall cheesy tone could have been winded back a bit. But in all it was a very enjoyable film. There are some hilarious scenes that'll stay in my head forever!
