Two friends from Cuba hatch a plan to launch a zombie extermination service after their picturesque island is overrun by the living dead in this satirical horror film from director Alejandro Brugués (Personal Belongings). It's the anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, and as the hungry undead make an unwelcomed appearance, best friends Juan (Alexis Días de Villegas) and Lázardo (Jorge Molina) decide to parlay their skills for dispatching zombies into a professional career. As the government attempts to maintain public order by blaming the fracas on Americans who they claim are attempting to topple the current regime, Juan and Lazardo rally the troops, gather their weapons, and prepare to make a killing by ridding Cuba of zombies one shambling, flesh-eating corpse at a time. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    This was a lot of fun and way better than I expected. The subtitles are distracting and sometimes are hard to keep up with but the story is great and it all works out. For the true zombie junky there is one scene (the second raft scene) alone that makes this worth watching, everything else is just icing on the cake.

    Very funny movie if you can stand subtitles. It is simulat to Shaun of the dead but it is ground up from a different culture. It's a movie shot in cuba. So its more of that culture and there is language differences. But hey, who said zombies are going to attack an english speaking nation first? I thought it was funny and worth my time.
