The bizarre story takes place in Amsterdam-West, where a virus turns people into bloodthirsty zombies. Although much blood is flowing and many limbs chopped off, there is a lot to laugh at in this bizarre horror comedy.

That was an excellent one.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
The first 10 minutes of the film we get some character build-up, mostly for Aziz who just got fired. Then that darn Soviet space station crashes into the Camp and Bell building bringing with it a green slime zombie virus. Aziz teams up with a half dozen people to rescue a co-worker at ground zero, one who he is crushing on.The film is more comedy than horror. It is a Dutch film with English subtitles. It has its funny moments and there are times when the humor wears off on some overdone scenes. The film is low budget and like an Asylum film, there are cars going down the highway in the background when there shouldn't be .Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
I only write reviews of movies with low rating, which actually are not that bad. Give them a chance!First of all, you need to understand that this movie is a comedy and even a parody in some parts. So you can't take it 100% seriously. Knowing that, you can certainly enjoy it because it is very funny. There is not a single part for which I can say is bad. You can only say that the story is not original, but since it is a zombie adventure... what can you expect? I love movies about apocalypse and that is the reason why I wanted to watch this one - I don't regret it at all.6.5/10
If you use a title with zombie in it than you immediately will have freaks over to attend your flick but on the other hand, there are so many zombie flicks out that you really have to look out for the better ones. The norms for zombies are very high nowadays due The Walking Dead series. Zombibi id of course a low budget flick that must be filed under zombedy.And that's were the problem lays. I didn't had to laugh that much. There are funny bits but it's more about situations (running up stairs to be remembered to run down) then gory funny parts. Naturally they looked to other flicks and some shots are really rip-offs of other flicks. The one everybody will recognize is the Pulp Fiction rip-off in a car scene. I won't go in it, you will see it without a doubt.The problem that I had was that not everything was understandable. The acting was mediocre and the gore for a zombie flick was low. But I do must give a big cheer to the CGI. Even as I hate it it did work when they are shooting towards zombies. Watch closely to the heads...For the Dutch horror buffs Jan Doense (Mr Horror in the Netherlands) has a very small part in this flick. The editing was rather good with some funny effects but I did miss a big laughter while attending Zombibi. It isn't bad but it wont be a Nederhorror classicGore 2/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 1/5
I have to start to say that I really liked this film.It had its typical slash and gore, its "we gotta save the girl from her hopeless position" and over the top action and comedy.But being a Dutchy I especially enjoyed seeing the well known Dutch actors, rappers and TV celebrities.I can think that seeing this film as a non Dutch You wont think its that special. But try to imagine this same film but with a good selection of your countries own actors, singers and TV celebrities.For example, try to imagine this film with (f.e.)50 cents, Jennifer Anniston, Denzel Washington, David Letterman and so on.Since this is an international movie database I gave this film a 7 out of 10, otherwise it would have been a sure 8! So, zombieflick lovers. Get your subtitles and see this great Dutch zombiefilm!
