... View MoreEAT ME! is a zero budget comedy horror film shot in New York. It feels very much like the filmmakers watched and are fans of the British hit SHAUN OF THE DEAD which inspired them to do their own local version of the movie. However, by comparison this film is a real dud, with an unlikeable garage band making up the main cast members and barely any zombie content to boot. The film tries very hard to be funny but simply doesn't achieve that goal, and it just sort of drags along with no narrative momentum.
... View MoreEat Me! is a story of everyday guys stuck in the middle of a zombie outbreak. The comedy in this story comes from the absolutely clueless main characters. They really have no idea how to handle the situation and try their hardest to come up with crazy ideas that work or fail with hilarious results. The band has many silly and heated arguments that they have particularly funny to me. The fact that the cast is made up of both women and men with varying ethnic backgrounds made this film particularly enjoyable to watch. It works both on an aesthetic and authentic level for this film. While obviously budget-limited, this film lacks the bad aspects of low-budget films such as horrible acting, shaky camera work, cliché story lines, and slow silly dialogue. Because of the solid writing and direction of Eat Me! it is enjoyable to watch, not because is is low-budget but despite the fact it is. That said, the low budget quality adds to the punk rock aesthetic of the movie.
