Alright, everyone knows the whole zombie movie genre has become crazily diluted since Dawn of the Dead first came out and blew everyones mind. Well with that being said, let's just say I wasn't expecting much from the 2008 Canadian "zombie" movie, Pontypool. Let's also just say my low expectations were exceeded like a mother after I finished watching it. Pontypool is a very refreshing take on the same old story. The main character is a radio show host who experiences first hand the effect of this new zombie disease that is taking over his small town. They first start to realize that something isn't right when BBC calls in to their radio show to see what is going on with their town, which would never happen as they are in the middle of a small town in Canada. While I thought some of the character's reactions were a little unrealistic, it didn't take away from the entertainment. Definitely watch this if you get a chance!
