Hooptober8.0
Film #6/35
Australia/2010’s/Film starring or directed by a person of color
It’s a game *cries*
My list: boxd.it/dflBA
I felt like I may have incorrectly posted this as starting a person of color, because Dave seems to be the main character here. Or at least the vehicle for the film. However Miss Caroline is one of the more entertaining parts of the movie. There are some stupid bits here and there, but there is a lot here to love. The constant struggle to keep the kids from being absolutely traumatized and out of danger is pure entertainments. The overhead shots of the Congo line through hordes of zombies being may favorites. Unlike Anna of The Apocalypse the musical sections actually work. I think that’s because the tone was nailed down.
The movie is super entertaining even if it’s not the most original or cutting edge zombie film. It’s a super nice and easy watch. Spectacular in terms of Hulu Originals considering how those usually go.
