Ce qu'on en pense sur

One thing Tenney proves in this film is that one can make a successful zombie film without needing a rampaging horde of them. There’s never more than one or two zombies at a time menacing our main characters, yet there’s still the effective tension that one of them can pop out of anywhere and eat anybody. Also, surprisingly, when it comes time to explain the space zombie’s origin so that our heroes can defeat it once and for all, the scientific reasoning behind it actually comes across as very plausable and believable. Well, that’s a lot of writing for a film that can basically be distilled down to a simple one-liner: Brain Dead is a real hoot and a half.
