Not a Fan. The writer tried way too hard to force feed us cutesy and quirky in the lead actress. Her wardrobe was overly contrived to show just how quirky she was, but just looked like she rolled around in a thrift store and whatever stuck, stayed. Her dialogue, which was stilted and sounded straight from an 8th grade play was a combo of 80's references, current teen speak, and random nonsense phrases. When you add in the overacted physical comedy, it just made for a seriously annoying character. Unfortunately all the dialogue and physical comedy was just poorly done, and varied from overacting to looking like they were reading the bad dialogue off cue cards for the first time. A failed attempt at zombie humor and a waste of time. I gave it a 2 for the cute name.
... View MoreWhile I wouldn't call it flavor of the month, the last couple of years saw a bit of a rise. Not only of the dead themselves but a rise in zombie comedies with a romantic touch. Some worked better than others, some just try to be a bit funny. And that is what this movie is. It's not an instant classic or anything, but it does what the box says and it's entertaining enough to watch.It starts off innocently enough, just to turn things up and speed things up a bit. The main actress is what either will draw you into it or appall you. I thought she was really funny and did a great job. Of course it's silly, it's meant to be that way. I mean the title along indicates that (how come no one thought of that before I wonder?) ... It's actually pretty easy to decide if you like this or not, but something I can't do for you of course
... View MoreI normally hate zombie films there have been so many...But this is the funniest version since Shaun of the Dead. A decent script and growing chemistry between leads Maria Thayer and Michael Cassidy create a fun rom/com based on the zombie apocalypse premise.Thayer has a one night stand after a bar pick-up with a guy who can't get rid of her soon enough the morning after. Yet, soon outside it doesn't take long for zombies to appear and thrust the odd couple together for better or worse.Thayer deserves special mention for her comedic skill that makes a low budget production seem like a big box office hit, which it should be.
... View MoreThis movie is so good that I sign on IMDb to give my first review. As some one who watches hundreds of movies a year, it is always refreshing to see something original in a very competitive movie types like Rom-Coms & Zombie films. They seem to be a dime a dozen. So when a film tries to put the two together it's got to be hard to stand out. This film Night of the Living Deb not only succeeds but is outstanding. This Kickstarter back indie film is a perfect example of the great talent that's out there if only given a chance. From the clever title to the end the movie it is fantastic. The clever writing/dialogue will have you laughing out loud. The acting, directing and filming is great. It is the best funny original Rom-Coms of the year. You add the Zombie angle and it falls into a very clever movie. It is filmed in Portland Maine another great bonus. Hats off to ALL involved in this film and if the people behind this film want to fund another Kickstarter film let me know. I'll be one of the first backers. Thank you all for the great art of the film making.Just for the skeptics out there, I had nothing to do with the funding or production of this film, but I wish I was. Just go see it any way you can and enjoy.T-Bohn
