Juan Of The Dead
Dir: Alejandro Brugués
2011
**
The Cuban answer to Shaun of the Dead although no where near as funny. It still feels relatively fresh though as Zombie concepts go and the whole production looks impressive considering the small budget. The characters aren't that great though unfortunately and the story line bumbles on clumsily. Many of the jokes I'd imagine only the Cubans will understand but the constant homophobic humour wore thin quite quickly. It's all about the zombie killing really, the end sucks too but gore fans should be happy but for me it wasn't quite good enough.
