SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
tbrunningbare2 This spoof movie actually hit the mark in its spoofing.
shawnblackman Deb is a smart, socially awkward girl who is drinking with her friend one night at the bar. The next morning she wakes up in a guy's place after a one night stand. While she is leaving a zombie outbreak is taking place all around. She takes her car, grabs the one night stand and begins her zombie survival adventure.This was actually pretty good. It's a smart zomedy with good writing and several clichés avoided. Not really violent at all with maybe a bite or two and people get shot. Nobody is taking bats to their heads and the zombies aren't playing with intestines. Ray Wise does a good job as the evil company owner.I was surprised with this one for sure. You can even watch this one with the significant other as there is a love story as well.
Leofwine_draca Another zombie comedy. The makers of this film seem to think that's some kind of a novel thing, but it really isn't because I've watched about half a dozen such films that were made in the last few years and most of them have been a wash out. NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEB is no exception, a film that fails due to the appalling low brow humour and completely irritating cast of characters, none more so than Deb herself.This film unwisely attempts to meld the romantic comedy genre with the zombie film. I hate rom coms so I was instantly turned off by the premise and struggled to sit through it if I'm honest. The character of Deb, as played by Maria Thayer, is described as "endearingly awkward" on this film's home page and it soon becomes obvious that the writers want you to warm to her quirkiness, her accident prone nature, her dumb idiosyncrasies. The problem is that I didn't. I found her supremely irritating and she made me want to switch the television off.The rest of the cast are no better, with Chris Marquette stuck in first gear with repetitive jokes and wooden acting. The only veteran performer is Ray Wise (ROBOCOP), who you have to feel for, being stuck in this inanity. After a mildly original set up, the narrative soon descends into the 'escape from one situation to the next' mould, all set at night in a local location. There are splattery gore effects and bad zombie acting, and none of it is remotely entertaining. NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEB is a film which demands a shot through the head to put it out of its misery.
Tokiwood Loved it! It is kind of Shaun of the Dead kind of flick, a romantic zombie comedy, but pretty fresh and funny and entertaining and cool. The actress that plays Deb, the lead character, is fantastic, charming and funny. Ray Wise has a great supporting role. The music, the sound, photography, effects - all together made a very good movie in every level. The director played nicely with clichés, made a very light but exciting movie with zombies, and since there is so much zombies these days, it is a great success to make a movie that can stand out. Well done in every way! I saw it at the closing of Dead Lake festival in Palic, Serbia. Highly recommended.
