This flat, joyless zombie comedy bites off more than it can chew.

A gateway horror for kids, this adaptation of R.L. Stine’s book is elevated by Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase and is sure to inspire lots of adult-kid conversations.

2/5

It aims to mimic Gremlins's mayhem-meets-social-satire vibe, but has neither the budget nor the wit to pull it off.

Disregarding the zombie stuff and just looking at the movie in terms of a fun spooky-season romp, Zombie Town assembles the ingredients and then neglects to mix them.

...a reasonable-enough premise that’s employed to increasingly (and exhaustingly) underwhelming effect...

C-

Certainly earnest in its intention to entertain pre-teen viewers, but the helmer can’t make sense of the bizarre plot, which becomes unnecessarily burdensome for a feature that’s only out to please.

The movie tricks and fishes adult viewers in by featuring cinema legends Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase. The movie starts to have creepy aesthetic and a unique take with soul sucking zombies to avoid any sort of gore, which I understand since it’s catering to a younger audience. However the dialogue, cheesiness and campiness fails to capture the attention of both young and old alike. I found myself consistently checking my watch, waiting for the movie to end.

Sweet and nostalgic with very light scares for the early teens and below. It's always good to see Dan Aykroyd even if it's in this not so funny light horror comedy. My wife actually liked it.

This is a cute zombie movie. A fresh take on the genre.

Wanted to like it so bad but man was it too cheap looking including cheap acting. This deserved better. Way better

Please don't watch it if you value your time. And if you don't.

Honestly, the dialogue could be so much better. I felt like I was watching a school play with the main characters. Some funny parts, but it has so many plot holes it's more aggravating for me. It does not do the book any justice.
