This French zombocalypse, does an excellent job of generating tension, suspense, pathos, terror and–you betcha–horror. An unexpected human bond around halftime and a typically restrained continental filmmaking style underline and deepen its hijinx. Denis Levant as a pet zombie named Alfred? Yes please. “Night Eats the World embarks on a complex meditation that makes it the most innovative zombie movie since Edgar Wright’s Shaun of the Dead.” Variety.
