Taking part in a Comedy flicks viewing challenge on ICM,I decided to look on Shudder for fitting titles. Spotting a image on the site for a flick for what I had in mind,I got set to cause mayhem.
View on the film:
Invading the office space with a half-zombie virus, director Joe Lynch & cinematographer Steve Gainer release the rage with a banging Pop Horror appearance of ultra-stylised slick whip-pans and fast cut edits building the surge of energy driving Cho and Cross. Going from the front doors to the top floor, Lynch drills a vibrant Splatter Horror Comedy atmosphere of bright, candy coloured blood sprayed across the screen, and bone-crunching sound effects pulled from Cho changing his office tie for pent-up rebellion.
Working in just one office block for the entire movie, the screenplay by Matias Caruso leaps over the risks of things becoming repetitive, thanks to the cackling End Of Level Boss pushing Cho and Cross forward from each increasingly brutal fight with fellow office staff. Spewing rage at his fellow staff, Cho is set off by Caruso with jet-black satire of the office culture worker drone, sending Cross and Cho into a zombie rage against the senior staff determined to stop them climbing the ladder.
Surrounded by the raging,rather than the walking, dead,Steven Yeun gives a live-wire turn as Cho,whose frustrations over being grounded down by fellow staff into almost becoming one of them, is hammered into pieces by Yeun. Entering the office wanting to challenge a decision staff made, Samara Weaving gives a lovely, Pop Punk performance as Cross, whose goofiness Weaving screws in with a wicked flair of viciousness,as Cross and Cho unleash mayhem.
