Finished watching Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse, directed by Christopher B London and starring Blake Anderson, Tye Sheridan, Logan Miller, Joey Morgan, David Koechner, Halston Sage and Sarah Dumont. The film opens up with the cleaner of a laboratory (Blake Anderson) who actually awakens a corpse by using CPR and breaking its chest open causing it to attack and turn him into a zombie, starting the outbreak. At the local school scout and childhood friends Ben (Tye Sheridan), Carter (Logan Miller) and Augie (Joey Morgan) are with Scout leader Rogers (David Koechner) are preparing for a camp out in the local woods to celebrate Augie getting his new Scout's badge. On their way home to get their gear Ben and Carter hit a deer leading to them getting help from Carter's sister and Ben's crush Kendall (Halston Sage) and her friends help the boys out and even inviting them to the party happening that night. This leads to Carter and Ben to sneak out in the middle of the night from the campsite leaving Augie alone as Scout Leader Rogers didn't show up as he was turned into a Zombie after encountering the Zombified version of the deer that Ben and Carter ran over. Back in town Ben and Carter see Denise (Sarah Dumont), a cocktail waitress they meet earlier fighting of a hoard of Zombies when the boys decided to go into the local strip club only to find a zombified bouncer and dancer. Overall this was a decent film as there was some great comedic moments that feel very organic and helps to further the films plot in places. The use of practical effects and make up helps to bring the zombie creatures to life by making the human zombies look very realistic. While the animatronics of the zombified cat and deer looks very cartoonish which initially feels a little out of place. 6.5/10.
