One two three, anyone who doesn't make a list is a zombie

Directed by director Yûsuke Ishida, Zombie 100 - One Hundred Things to Do Before You Die is a pleasant horror comedy, created by the visionary Haro Aso (author of the fabulous and hallucinogenic Alice in Borderland).

The film is based on the manga, probably staggering a bit here and there, actually two hours is not a lot, but it must be said that they flow pleasantly, in an absurd, incoherent setting. One of the most successful things is without a doubt the beginning. The way in which the facts are narrated, showing a job that is practically a condition of slavery, makes us empathize with the protagonist and fully understand his point of view.

Come on, it's better to be among zombies than to carry out tasks for a tyrant, that was big trouble! Personally I loved the scene in which Eiji Akaso, out of breath, worried, is busy avoiding living dead with the fear of arriving late for the office. Then, he almost seems to see the light bulb that suddenly turns on, and lights up his face. The storm is over, I hear carcasses celebrating, and a job, I no longer have. The happiness of a newfound freedom drips in abundance, it matters little, if in the meantime, there is a fair amount of arrogance of corpses.

 

The footage contributes little to the high quantity of themed films, except for a genuine sympathy, and a winning idea, including the zombie shark, which catapults us straight into the world of Sharknado, touching for a few moments on the psychotic madness of the saga. This is all fantastic!
The plot tells the terrible reality of AKira, who, after being hired by a renowned advertising company, is immediately engulfed by an exploitation that becomes a real torment. His dream job turns him into a sort of corporate robot, cancels out his existence, gives up his free time, everything. One fine day, he leaves the house and finds himself among dozens of hungry and angry zombies.


After an initial moment of dismay, he realizes that his imprisonment is finally over, it's time to draw up a list of things to do before being bitten and becoming an animated dead man.
The character of Akira shows us how life is a moment, and we often give priority to concreteness, giving up aspirations, joy, and lightheartedness. Nothing comes back, it shouldn't take a zombie apocalypse to teach us what really matters. And so, in this bizarre and bizarre journey, he manages to teach his idiot boss a lesson, transform a guarded and solitary girl into a more open and good-natured woman, and even become a superhero!

 

<0 >Recommended film, Akaso's performance in the role of the main character is very successful, and the direction is quite convincing, there are some flaws (a little too long and effects are not always at the top), but overall, it is a cheerful and engaging story reflect on how the most precious asset we have is too often devalued: time.
