Review of The Returned (2013) by Steven B — 26 Jul 2014

I enjoyed a different take on a zombie film like this. It shows the politics of the situation quite well such as activism for the civil rights of the Returned vs public safety and seems to allude toward real-world HIV/AIDS carriers in that manner.

This is not a traditional zombie movie. The few zombie scenes there are are meant for symbolism which is done well too. Some characters decisions in the plot seem farfetched; despite this, the movie still makes for a good watch.
