What I'm getting at is that my hopes were so high for Cooties that it would be brutally difficult for any movie to hit 'em. Just a quick look at the cover art alone had my expectations soaring somewhere in the upper stratosphere. Barricading themselves inside the school was a good idea for a while there, but with no hope of help on the horizon, they've gotta find some way to get out before too many more of these bite-happy little bastards get in. There's also the hippy-dippy vice principal (Ian Brennan), an aw-shucks doofball (Jack McBrayer), the stoned-outta-his-gourd crossing guard (Jorge Garcia), ball-buster Rebekkah (Nasim Pedrad), and a sociopath (Leigh Whannell) who might just turn out to be their single greatest asset to understanding and fending off the legions of the undead. Only so much reconnecting can be done what with Lucy dating that posturing macho-man meathead P.E. Chicken is an excuse to reconnect with Lucy (Alison Pill), who's cute as a button and an aggressively optimistic, indefatigable ray of sunshine. Clint's first day on the job was shaping up to be pretty lousy even before the whole thing with zombifying chicken nuggets, but.yeah.Īt least he's not in it alone! Heading back home to Ft. I'd tell you what the book Clint's been writing is about, but give the guy another twenty seconds, and he'll be droning on about it anyway while namedropping the Big Apple every other sentence.
Chicken, Illinois to rustle up a little cash as a substitute teacher. He's a novelist taking a break from the hustle and bustle of New York, returning to his hometown of Ft. With Bautista and Snow underplaying nicely (they couldn’t really be heard if they hammed it up anyway) and a sense of a city genuinely on the brink of doom (yet on a budget), Murnion and Milott’s movie offers a vision of America tearing itself apart instead of being made great again.So, anyway, before Clint (Elijah Wood) found himself starring in a horror story, he was content just writing 'em. However, what distinguishes this small yet grimly compelling pic from the Red Dawns is its key twist, a turnaround that could be quite a surprise if you don’t look at almost every other review online, the IMDB and probably the back of this DVD. Lucy is about to be brutalised when she’s saved by Stupe (Dave), who then agrees to accompany her through the dangerous five blocks of Bushwick so that she can get to granny, who’s revealed as hardly surprised that New York is getting it in the neck yet again. This intense action drama (which at first seems to owe something to the two versions of Red Dawn) opens with Lucy (Brittany Snow) bringing her gormless new boyfriend to meet her grandmother in Brooklyn and, wouldn’t you know it, unfortunately choosing the very day that the city is invaded, bodies line the streets and, as usual, the expected urban militias, freaks and sleazebags use the chaos to feed their obsessions. Yes, former wrestler and man-mountain from the Guardians Of The Galaxy films Dave Bautista is the big name here, and once again he’s trying to show his range (he can also be spotted doing the same thing in the opening scene of Blade Runner 2049). Defiant Screen Entertainment, MA, 84 MinsĬo-directors Cary Murnion and Jonathan Milott’s début feature Cooties was a troubled but enjoyable school-set zombie-esque horror comedy starring several players you’d have thought would never be caught dead in such material, and this follow-up is more serious and uncomfortably satirical, and offers another cast member trying something different.
