The Horde
You have to give directors Yannick Dahan and Benjamin Rocher credit for the relentless energy they have put into this zombie movie about a street gang and a band of cops who have to work together to survive being trapped in a condemned high rise apartment as hordes of the undead try to eat them. Even in the few quiet moments in the film, when the cops and robbers try to sneak down darkened hallways without attracting any zombie attention, are cranked up to 11 on the tension scale. That’s the good news. The band news is that the directors show little restraint when it comes to the gory action scenes. There’s nothing wrong with blood, but there’s something boring about watching live people empty their guns into a walking corpse and never even hitting them in the head.
