The sole reason for this review is to make the distinction between a horror/comedy, such as Tucker & Dale vs Evil, and this movie...a rom-com with zombies and just one or two bloody scenes.
I really dig some of the zombie spoofs out there, but what I enjoy about them is the blood, guts, and carnage that comes with a zombie movie, but with a comical bent, opposed to the stereo-typical genre example such as Night Of the Living Dead. 'Deb' really missed the mark for me, as I had hoped to see another Tucker & Dale type. What I got was a Drew Berrymore-like rom-com, mixed with one or two scenes of blood & guts.
So yeh. As a rom-com, it's fine, but calling it a horror/comedy it stretching it for me. If you want a blood and guts zombedy, this movie is not for you. Just wanted to make sure that distinction was clear.
