By Benminx
Format:Blu-ray
This film is heavily influenced by it's two main elements - Jake West's bonkers manic/pervy/comic/violent style, and the attitude you expect from a good Danny Dyer flick - an 'all blokes together, birds and violence' blokey approach. I went in expecting a 'Severance' level of genius and as a result I was a bit disappointed, but after adjusting to the difference in tone I realised this is a film that you enjoy on its own terms. When Danny's 'Neil' and friends decide to escape from the city to help a friend get over his divorce, they plan to head for a village where the women vastly outnumber the men in order to party their woes away. Unfortunately the village has fallen foul of a mysterious plague, and the women are all - literally - maneaters. Naturally the lads end up trapped, and fighting for their lives and to discover what went on in the ravaged village.
It's a brilliantly fun idea, and instead of playing it for real horror, West plays it for campness and laughs. 'Sexy' zombie/vamp women drool blood and chase the panicked guys around, and West even has the comedy balls to have flocks of rabid women chasing a remote control car in one of the scripts funniest scenes. That's not to say he forgets the gore. West enjoys going over the top, and there are many scenes with claret and entrails flying left right and centre, usually in a 'so disgusting it's funny' manner. Moments when the men start to feel superior again are usually slapped down with well timed comic irony or a brilliantly judged gag, and very little of the humour is anything short of madcap and thoroughly enjoyable.
I didn't notice any great benefit from seeing this in Blu-Ray, but I imagine that it's at least noticeably better than on DVD as I remember the images being impressive and the sound having great impact despite the film's 'low to mid-budget' status.
Sometimes the plague-women makeup was a little too deliberately crazy-looking to the degree that it looked a bit fake, but that kind of thing seems to be due to West's deliberately excessive style, and it didn't harm the movie. Some of the set pieces and gore are also very well handled and painfully convincing.
This is very much a 'blokes on a lark' caper, and while the beginning reeks of misogynism, this seems to be a deliberate excess to contrast with the women getting their revenge and roundly kicking the blokes' backsides for the majority of the movie. It's very silly, very funny, and very gory. Just don't go in expecting a 'serious' horror movie, or you'll be very disappointed.

One of the best films of the year without a doubt, very very funny from start to finish, such a bunch of characters, Danny Dyer is brilliant as usual and is so good at these horror comedy type roles like (severence) Jake West has definatly made his best film now since the brilliant evil aliens! this is a gem of a film, a classic horror comedy that you must own.

This is just plain good fun from start to finish. For a cheapo production it achieves more fun per minute than a Hollywood blockbuster. Read more
