DESCRIPTION
The Zombie Farm (2009)
Are zombies the new vampires? Does anyone care? The Zombie Farm teaches us a few things about zombies that we can appreciate. For instance, they don?t get all emo, are never moody, and aren?t picky eaters. Then there?s the surprising insights, like zombies have sex drives?at least one of them does. Of course, it?s also good to know that all zombies don?t just shuffle in low gear; some of them are fast and good fighters. (We need to know things like this for our own potential zombie encounters.)
Directed by Ricardo Islas, The Zombie Farm (2009) features a mostly-Latino cast. It tells the story of a documentarian (Adriana Catano) who plans to make a film about a Louisiana santero (Roberto Montesinos). The more she learns about him, the less she likes him, and decides to drop the project. A young woman (Monika Munoz), who is the victim of extreme domestic violence, visits the santero to get a ?beverage? that will keep her husband from hitting her every night. He tells her he can?t help her, so she visits a Macumba practitioner (Nadia Rowinsky) who offers her a potion that will ?change? the husband (Khotan).
And change him, it does! It changes him from a living person, to a dead person, to an undead person. The problem is, he?s still bothering his wife. He tends to be a little violent and feeds on human flesh, so he?s not really fun to have around. The wife returns to the santero for help, and soon he and the documentarian are involved. Soon they discover that the Macumba practitioner has a farm on which the free labor is supplied by zombies (it?s all Immigration?s fault). They just need to be given a living person to eat once in a while.
The first two-thirds of The Zombie Farm ambles pleasantly along (for a zombie flick) with quite a bit of humor thrown in to humanize the?um?humans. The final third becomes more intense, with a lot of action, some gore, and the film?s scariest moments. There we learn The Zombie Farm?s final lesson: just because you turn someone into a zombie doesn?t mean you can control him.
Bottom Line: Would I buy/rent/stream The Zombie Farm? Yes. It?s well made, has an attractive cast, and a script that is both coherent and funny. Its title had me expecting the worst, but it?s very entertaining (if you?re a zombie fan).
