Films builds upon the tropes of high school teenage movies with the battle between standard cliques. It starts with a field trip, the jocks and popular being especially cruel to the other "loser" groups. Then, suddenly, it's a zombie flick with the teenagers having to find a way to survive as a chemical attack is occurring (and seemingly the source of the zombie outbreak). The battle sets the stage for the teenagers to address the cliques, conflicts in the relationships, and the omnipresent search for the self in adolescence. Goofy and campy, the film does well playing up the comedy and horror through the end. The surprise ending is interesting and does change the perspective of the film, turning it askew for a happy surprise. Overall, it does what it planned to do but isn't a grand film.
