13 Best Horror Movies On Shudder Right Now
9. One Cut Of The Dead (2017)
The opening thirty minutes to One Cut of the Dead is a very fun zombie horror movie. During the filming of a zombie flick crazed movie director (Takayuki Hamatsu) keeps his camera rolling whilst an actual zombie attack befalls the cast and crew. There’s plenty of rollicking violence and gore and, most impressively, it’s all shot in one take!
Then the film ‘ends’ and the ‘credits roll’.
It’s a wonderful shock.
After this One Cut becomes a clever comedy about the process of filmmaking, with the film’s final act a Noises Off style cinematic farce - a comedy of errors from missed cues to actors pooping themselves. It’s a breath of fresh air in the zombie genre.
One Cut may not give you nightmares, but for film buffs and zombie fans, this one will put a huge smile on your face.
