Pontypool-
I had never heard of it till I saw a list of 10 great horror movies you probably haven't seen. I had seen 5 of the 10 on the list and they were all pretty good. So I set out to see the other 5. This was the first of those.
Great premise. People are turning into zombies (basically) and the entire story is told to us from a 3 person small town news radio station crew and DJ.
They get calls that are giving them odd reports, so we are learning as they do.
But then... It decides to try and explain the odd happenings.
Once the cause is revealed, it's a bit odd. There is something interesting about it, but I guess what lost me was the part where one person is cured.
The movie could've been great. But seems to lose steam at about an hour in.
I read that it was also a radio play on BBC that ran 56 minutes. I bet it was far more interesting.
If you are really bored, maybe watch it. But I can't recommend it.
