The premise
Brain freeze has never been so bad once you’ve tasted Ale Cream, as four friends inadvertently eat some radioactive ice-cream, turning them into zombies. Only problem is they don’t see themselves as the undead, but as super soldiers.
Horror Vault's take
When a batch of radioactive ice cream finds its way to four unsuspecting friends, their world is turned upside down — though not quite in the way you'd expect. Told cleverly from the zombies' own warped perspective, the film mines rich comedy from the gap between how the undead see themselves and how the living see them. Think less brain-eating horror, more misguided superhero fantasy with a rotting twist. It's a fresh angle on a well-worn genre that keeps the laughs coming without skimping on zombie charm.
