Review of Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse (2015) by Jamess — 07 Jan 2016

I didn't know anything but the title of this and thought, for a buck fifty Redbox rental...why not? When it started with Blake from Workaholics playing a janitor, I thought, okay this may be actually good.

Wellll, how about merely good. It's definitely R rated, which was a surprise. But F bombs do not a comedy make. Nor do cliché upon cliché. Our three boy scout heroes come from every teen comedy under the sun.

The earnest guy who wants to do good while crushing on the hot girl (with the dick boyfriend), the chubby schlub who's REALLY into scouts, and the horndog best friend. "Earnie" and "horndog" are invited to a private senior party, that will be the NIGHT OF THEIR LIFE!!!! Of course they split from Augie, the schlub, to attend.

Of course they're discovered by Augie. Of course they make up and become better friends at the end. And the good guy gets the girl in the end. After saving the day, of course-....I gave it an extra point because it's gleefully dirty in a totally juvenile way, with zombie dick jokes and a zombie oral sex scene that was beaten by ReAnimator thirty years ago, but was still appreciated.

Good for a few chuckles and a laugh or two. Catch on cable if you must.....
