World War Z has shambled into the Library

For more than 40 years, blank-eyed creatures have shambled across our movie screens, providing us with midnight movie screams, blood, guts and gore. World War Z is the latest in this ever growing movie genre. I admit I love everything that is zombie! In fact in our house we are prepared for if and when the Z apocalypse finally arrives. I have always felt that I could survive a zombie outbreak and that out running these fellows would be a piece of cake. (Not so much now) World War Z introduced me to zombies that simply cannot be out run, or hacked to death with a machete. No, these undead initiates a new kind of fear. They act almost superhuman.

WWZ wastes no time in getting started. Less than 10 minutes into the movie and we are thrown in! Brad Pitt plays Gerry Lane, a former military man who goes back to work for the military in return for securing his family shelter during the zombie apocalypse. They send Gerry around the world investigating a possible cure for the zombies, or a weapon to use against them.

It is truly an impressive movie, especially considering it is PG-13. For being a zombie movie, it doesn't have many action scenes, and this might come as a surprise, but there is very little blood and gore ANYWHERE. I saw this coming 15 minutes in and thought, oh no...but truth be told, this doesn't ruin the film. While I tend to like the gore in a zombie film, WWZ proves you don't really need it to be horrific.

I highly suggest it to zombie fans, and to anyone else that wants a scary, enthralling tale. However be warned, if you are into the slash and run zombie films, then you won't find this as entertaining. And if you're expecting WWZ be a dead on version of the book then understand it isn't even close! But it is certainly one of the most gratifying zombie movies in years. And if nothing else watch it because Brad Pitt proves he's still a big-screen star. Even when he's being chased by hordes of the undead, he is cool, unflappable, and ridiculously good-looking.
