Warm Bodies (2013)

It’s amazing what a little Hollywood money and talent can do for the oft maligned zombie genre. Warm Bodies actually feels like a real movie,  not some film school dropout’s latest weekend romp with their new Sony HD camcorder.

The plot is a zombie-human love story. Maybe the zombie version of Twilight. Production is first rate. Rob Corddry gets his first meaty role, and kills it. Bits of humor balance the more violent scenes.

It’s a fresh idea that was severely lacking in the zombie world. Warm Bodies is one of the better zombie films to come along in a while.

Rating: B+
