Dance of the Dead
Dance of the Dead
Excellent fun. The hitherto unsuspected susceptability of zombies to the power of rock was a nice touch.

O.ne of my faves of the fest.as funny as any of the mainstream comedies that have been coming out(superbad etc)good gore.The coach was funny.the bully elbow dropping a zombie was cool andzombies launching out of graves was great.makes me wonder with the rock n roll thing if the director/writer has seen Wild Zero.

Without doubt the best horror-comedy of the festival. I was really expecting this to be one of the movies to have a well-deserved kip in but it actually surprised me...one of my favorites so far!

One of the best of the fest for me . Totally enjoyable and very funny
After talking with others, seems this may be the "sleeper hit" of this years festival.
What helped this immensely is that it managed to keep zombies fresh (no pun intended) Most notable is the flying from the graves sequence.
Will keep an eye out for when this hits DVD

Liked this one a lot. As someone who wouldn't get asked to a Prom in a million years if I went to Losergeek High, I certainly empathised with the film's group of heroes and that's one of the keys with horror comedy (unlike, say, I Know How Many Blah Blah Whatever where I couldn't give a damn whether they lived or died or just sat around doing sudokus). You've got to like these people and that's pretty well covered here. Exactly the kind of gear change required after Fear(s) of the Dark.
YAY Teen Prom Horror !
(I have never been an american teen but I've watched one on TV)
Very good young cast, AND the coach too.
Vaguely reminded me of last year's Henry Rollins appearance
Roll on the sequel (s) !
