Evaluative comments
This movie is extremely hilarious and entertaining. In addition to this, parts of it are also very sweet, as the romance between R and Julie begins to develop. It preserves a lighter tone for the most part, and its twist on the traditional zombie genre is refreshing and captivating. Balancing romance, horror, humour, and the paranormal, this movie has a wide appeal.
