All by Meg Sipos
The ham-fistedness of Ready or Not fits the carefully-crafted and well-paced balance of quippy, campy, self-aware pulp horror/comedy. The film doesn’t waste a single moment of screen time and pays close attention to the arcs of its three main characters through the deconstruction of Grace's wedding dress as she finds herself hunted in The Most Dangerous Game: Satanic Mansion Edition.
Zombies are an undead funhouse mirror, a decrepit parody of humanity meant to reflect our worst traits back at us. Part of that critique means that real, living, breathing humans, should always be more dangerous than stupid, slow-moving zombies. Today, Meg unpacks and celebrates the Romero zombie for all its given us. She also has fun hating on Zack Snyder’s fast zombies.
