Zombie World-Land-Place-Ville YouTube Review: Fair Warning

February 10th, 2010 in Horror, Movies, Reviews -

You know, I LOVE it when YouTubers out there preface their short films by giving us advance warning about the quality–or lack thereof–up front.  Especially when it’s stuff like this:

I shot it over a weekend on my phone instead of the 3 months we were allocated, and I would say it shows. There is a distinct lack of plot and focus I suppose but it does involve zombies and some terrible acting courtesy of me.

Bravo, guys.  Let’s just walk right into this.

Once again, we’re faced with the great terror that is the Zombie Apocalypse, only this time, we’ll be watching it all on television via  a series of short vignettes that combine the acting skills of one man and a collection of hijacked footage.  They are actually kind of funny in a “laugh at the monkey” sort of way that makes you feel bad for laughing later on.  It’s kind of like laughing at a guy with a speech impediment who’s trying his best to sing Carmen.Yes, it’s funny on the surface, but it’s so very wrong to laugh.

And that’s about what Zombie World-Land-Place-Ville felt like–like laughing at something you really shouldn’t.

The Screenhead gives this highly uncomfortable comedy a five out of ten for being funny, but for mostly the wrong reasons.
