Ravenous takes place in small town Quebec, so the original movie is in French with English subtitles, but don’t let that keep you away. Ravenous has great character development and great action scenes, which isn’t always true of some zombie films.
The first half hour has some great scenes. One of them involves a the main characters fleeing through the woods as a horde runs after them through the trees, it was well shot and gave me the creeps.
I actually really liked the fact that they don’t try to explain the why its happening, the movie instead concentrates on what surviving takes, and how simple choices can mean life or death.
The ending is a bit strange, but came full circle, which I liked. Overall I’m giving Ravenous a 68/100. The movie is well worth watching if your a zombiephile.
Things to like about Ravenous:
- Good character development.
- Well done action and violence.
- One of the most bad ass fighters is a woman.
- Well acted and well written.
