Yummy review (Shudder Exclusive)

Some days, a nice little gross out zombie movie is just what the doctor ordered. So, heading into a shady Eastern European hospital, our two leads run straight into just that sort of trouble.

 Allison (Maaike Neuville) and Michael (Bart Hollanders) are looking for breast reduction surgery on the F cup-sized Allison, who is tired of having men ogle her. Her mother is accompanying them and hoping to get some touch-up work for her own beauty needs. There they meet Daniel (Benjamin Ramon) who would really like to show Michael around the hospital (And snatch some pharmaceuticals in the process) while the ladies go under the knife. Then... a zombie gets loose and hilarity ensues.

The movie packs some gory and disgusting gags, the sort of things that would make a dog gag. Our two protagonists are often separated for the purpose of sending them on a series of short misadventures that almost always bring them back together again. The film is ultimately very nihilistic, however. In the vein of Very Bad Things, things get progressively worse as the film builds to it's eventual climax that may shock some but felt more like par for the course with my experiences.

This is a mild recommendation for most horror fans, with emphasis for fans of gross out humor and gore.

6.5 out of 10.
