The Dead Mile is a fun take on Zombie films. A Zombie breakout taking place during a Zombie walk forcing a rag-tag group of individuals together in an attempt to survive the hoard. The movie takes place in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and aside from the awesome Pontypool, is one of the only Zombie I've seen that's shot and takes place in a Canadian city. Also, this is the =only movie where I saw Zombies taken out via some sweet hockey skills. Is this a great movie? Maybe not. Is this a fun move? Damned straight. Watch this movie to support independent film makers, and watch this film because you like fun Zombie flicks. Also, watch it to see my fantastic city get overrun by Zombies. In short, watch it.

The Dead Mile was highly entertaining. A fantastic combination of zombies and good old Canadian fun, it was a blast from start to finish. A well rounded out and talented cast lead the way through the gore keeping the mood light and playful while simultaneously pitching the perfect amount of suspense. Kudos also to the make up and special effects department as these zombies were definitely both scary and disgusting enough to keep me on the edge of my seat and grossed out throughout the whole flick. The added hockey element was also thoroughly enjoyed with the three puck heads constantly keeping the humour present. All around the whole film was a great big bucket of fun filled with awesome stereotypes and some gruesome zombies, definitely a must see for any Canadian horror lover.
