Boy Eats Girl (2005)

In BOY EATS GIRL the horror of school takes on a whole new meaning. Forget about the threat of the classroom bully the anxiety of the rugby field or even the dread of being spurned by the girl you fancy; when your schoolmates develop a taste for human flesh it pays to know who your friends are and what they've been eating.Cast: Samantha Mumba David LeonDirector: Stephen BradleySystem Requirements:Run Time: 80 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR/ZOMBIES Rating: R UPC: 031398222538 Manufacturer No: 22253 Product Description

Very enjoyable zomedy

Boy Eats Girl is pretty much everything the title implies: a bloody zombie-comedy that manages to pack a little bit of a punch. The boy of the title is Nathan (David Leon), whose unrequited love for a classmate (Samantha Mumba) takes a dire turn that results in Nathan's accidental demise. His mum proceeds to bring him back from the dead via voodoo magic, and it isn't long before Nathan starts craving human flesh, and zombies run amok (literally, these are the running variety here). While Boy Eats Girl isn't as funny as it aspires to be, it features a game cast and some memorable gore effects which really get shown off in the film's blood-soaked finale. Clocking in at a brisk 80 minutes, Boy Eats Girl is definitely worth seeing for zombie fans that couldn't get enough with Shaun of the Dead, and while Boy Eats Girl isn't nearly as enjoyable as that film, it still manages to be a short and fun ride regardless.

Great gore, good zombie movie

I was expecting a B or C or Z movie...but, dare I say it...this is actually good. First, the type of zombie: the first zombie is a voodoo zombie but, that soon turns into infected-by-bite zombies.

Plot: Boy likes girl, boy mistakenly thinks girl is hooking up with another boy and boy becomes all frustrated and dies by a freak kind-of-death. Mom revives boy in voodoo ritual and boy becomes a zombie. But, this guy still has his mental faculties intact; a new kind of zombie indeed. Can he resist enough to not eat the girl he likes? The movie is good because it is entertaining. Plus, it has lots of top grade impressive gore (involving heavy machinery!) and has a decent storyline. Let me mention this again, this gore would make Dario Argento (Suspiria (2-Disc Special Edition)Opera) proud.

The one bad thing about this movie is that the "teenagers" are more around their mid-twenties and look it, and there are quite a few loose ends that are never tied up and there should have been way more zombies. Regardless, pretty good zombie/zombie-spoof movie. And by the way, the teenager's mom looks an awful lot like Sarah Palin...3 1/2 stars. September 8, 2008

WATCH IT AND IF YOU LOVE ZOMBIES THEN YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Big time zombie lover here. Whether it be books or movies, I love it as long as there is flesh eating dead people in it. There have been some horrible zombie flicks out there that have made me question my dedicated devotion upon the living dead. This was no such film. This movie made me jump at least 12 times. I call this the "jump factor". I rate a lot of movies based on how many times I jump and scream. This one nailed the jump factor. What is so hilarious is that this movie has a dark humor undertone within it. Guess what...I still jumped!!! Big time achievement in that department. So, kudos coming out of my arse for this movie!

One of the better zombie films that I have seen.

This film is well produced, well acted, has well done gore, and is entertaining to watch. Although the action is as familiar to zombie fans as any other zombie movie (a gang of people trying to avoid/survive infestation), this film is able to keep you entertained with those positive qualities I just listed.

Very enjoyable

It wasnt what i thought it was.

But that ended up being a very good thing a solid mix of comedy, violence and lots of blood. It is a movie about zombies after all. Its great how they are all mixed together at key times during the movies with the characters in peril or about to being eaten. The comedy comes in and relieves the tension. Its basically about a guy that witnesses what he believes his best friend (Samantha Mumba) out on the town with another guy. Its a big deal for him because he sees what he believes is her "helping" the guy out in the car...even though that isnt what happens.

So he goes and tries to hang himself in desparation while doing so his mom comes in and knocks something over thereby killing him. It didnt look like he was actually going to go through with it. But anyways his mom finds a voodoo book that has things about reanimation. She steals it of course without knowing that something is missing in the book. He wakes up and suddenly has no feeling, an insatiable thrist and of course a hunger for human flesh. He bites the school's resident jerk while on football field after he seems him with his "girl". I only say that way because she seems to not have a problem getting down with just about anyone.

All hell breaks loose after that i could go on and everything. But its better to witness the rest of the mayhem that ensues on your own. Its worthy of nothing else at least a rent and after that i believe. If you go into the movie without any preconcieved notions on the movie that you will enjoy it. I had a blast with this one and clocking in at 80 minutes it isnt too long and will keep your attention for the time your watching it. April 6, 2008
