Episode 365: Everyday of the Dead (2023)

Send us Fan MailIn a post-COVID Japan we get four stories that make up the anthology Everyday of the Dead. Pretty dreadful acting, pretty awful writing, pretty awful cinematography. We have Punch of the Dead, where a dumped guy comes out of lockdown to go see his girl, only to be dumped over the phone. He decides to limp over, and fight his way to get, giving every one of the slow moving zombies a punch, before discovering that she has been cheating on him. She does get her comeuppance, and our guy limps off. In Chain of the Dead a couple who are having an office affair find themselves chained to each other a la Saw. Although the reason is much more simple and no one has to go delving into baskets of dirty syringes or have their head ripped off. The wife of the man wants a divorce. But she also has left poisoned water in the room, so when the man drinks it he turns zeke and goes after the office girl. In actor of the dead, a poor man's Still, an unemployable actor inadvertently walks into a couple of zombies and, so stop them killing him, he copies their behaviour and acts like one of them until, that is, a sniper hunting zombies gets them in his sights. And then we have the last story, as a man thinks he is immune, but isn't really, a TV crew follow a vigilante around who is killing zombies. The two will collide. But what will happen?It was poorly acted, poorly filmed, the animation was terrible, the writing, the makeup, well, everything was terrible.2/10
