December 5th - Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies (2016)
It became clear during the first half hour that the title of this Austrian film was far superior to what was actually on screen.
Obviously it's a horror comedy but it's not that horrific and not in the least bit funny. The film looks great and there are some exhilarating snow board sequences early doors as well as script creativity in escaping the undead but it lacks the peril and characterization of leaders in the horror comedy genre like Shaun of the Dead, Severance and Dead Snow.
A missed opportunity although the Alpine setting and copious amounts of Schnapps on offer made it a very Christmassy film.
