Review of Rammbock: Berlin Undead (2010) by Judge L — 02 Mar 2012

Michael arrives in Berlin to visit his ex-girlfriend Gabi, with hopes of getting her back. Just after his arrival a terrible virus begins infecting everyone. Rammbock: Berlin Undead is a low budget apocalyptic zombie film that is really more about a character's obsessive desire to get back his girlfriend when really he just needs to learn to move on.

Part of the zombie sub-genre, Rammbock brings some unique ideas to the table and it's all executed well with a good amount of gore, but it's the emotional core of this character Michael that sets it apart from so many other zombie films.

In the end, as much as the film is about the end of the world, its more so about this character's loss. It was ironic to see this film right after seeing Markus Schleinzer' Michael, considering in a majority of this film he's alone in an apartment with a young kid.

Michael Fuith really has that meager, pathetic feel down. I have read some people mentioning that this film has a political allegory, but I sure didn't see it. It's a fun, well done film that is really almost a character study inside a zombie flick.

I.
