Real delirium, Super Z is almost the antithesis of the classic zombie movie, deeply potash and delirious, I had completely missed this trash French UFO. After a nice and grotesque start on the creation of a family of talking zombies (at last babbling), the tone is quickly set. After a surreal presentation of this family recomposed for the occasion, it is with their flight that we discover the small life of these monsters not like the others while they settle in an abandoned house in the middle of nature.
My feeling is strange because somewhere I was quite disappointed that a subject as interesting as talking zombies is immediately turned to the practical joke, but curiously the quirky tone and consistent style works quite well with the universe set up, Kind of like a South Park live. We discover a lot of characters all more stupid than the others, but there is a zombie travelogue and a teenage rapper who are worth the detour. In the end I liked this family of monsters for what it is: Tight and endearing pariahs.
The film oscillates between the stupid and the homage, it is not always crazy, some characters lack development, it's a little soft in the middle while remaining quite enjoyable in the stupidity with some really crazy scenes like the pursuit in 2cv of war with the machine gun of Predator or the orgy based on soup LSD! I had a bit of trouble with their plan to conquer the world even if the final catch up well by blithely parodying the American action film and brings some consistency. It's quite funny that it came out the same year as Coupe! From Hazanavicius that I had loved. In itself I found the delirium infernal Z series crazy enough successful even if more finesse would not have hurt because there, it screams a lot and it makes the experience a little tiring at times, it's a pity because it's rather original and nice.
