10 Apocalypse Horrors That Broke All The Rules
10. Anna And The Apocalypse
As you’ll soon see, this is not the only musical offering to this list, but it definitely is the only festive musical and that’s for good reason: there aren’t a whole lot of horror comedy musicals set at Christmas.
Based at the beginning of an infectious zombie outbreak, Anna and her crew quickly realise that avoiding the hordes isn’t going to be as simple as waiting for an army evacuation. The army are zombies, the town are zombies, and before they know it they might be too.
They try to stick together and find their loved ones, the whole time Anna still talking about her plans to travel when she finishes school as if the world isn’t in the process of ending as she speaks.
The film has some really likeable characters and some great comedy moments with the musical elements entwined throughout. If you’ve recently endured something as bleak and soul-crushing as, say, Threads, then this one is a remedy for the heart.
