Review of Pontypool (2009) by Dodd A — 21 Jan 2012
The concept of Pontypool is clever on a low budget: people in a radio station hear the zombie attacks happening on the outside through phone calls into the station. The mystery of the whole thing establishes a creepy tone.
What does not work is the "why". Pontypool then attempts to be clever and awkwardly humorous by explaining why everything is occurring. Did we really need to know? The sense of the unknown would have been much more effective.
