I'M Z-O-M-B-I-E-S

Imagine you're a young actor who just got the lead in a Disney Original musical, just so close to being the next Zac Efron, and you open the script and read the line "who's the zombie? I'm the zombie. And this zombie's playing some ball!"

No because Addison thinking her white hair allows her to relate to the oppression the zombies experience is actually perfect

I love how he guessed that Addison is tiny bit Zombie, but the truth is it takes two other movies to find out she's actually half Alien, which is so much more stupid than the part Zombie idea.

The fact that the metaphor would have been infinitely better off the zombies just never ate people and propaganda was just pushed around saying they did

Imagine cannibals are allowed to enter your school and you just have to be ok that they’re there because they have watches on

I love that half-zombie mode is completely berserk, superhuman strength and speed, while full-zombie mode is just like, mildly infuriated and barely able to walk. Makes total sense.

Zed: I’m separated from society for being a Zombie. Addison: I’m….-sniffles- a blonde.

18:57 Imagine your whole school is freaking out from flesh eating monsters getting out of control and then some random cheerleader just rips off her wig

It's actually incredible that Disney made a movie that both preaches acceptance and also justifies racism

“theyre just people with green hair” “dont you eat people?” the duality of dan

Danny’s thing about him wanting Zed to eat her at the end of the movie for the Romeo and Juliet thing could’ve actually been a good ending. Zed loses control after his Z Band breaks and he snaps and eats her and when he discovers what he’s done he kills himself out of guilt. I feel like that would’ve made the movie better. The movie needs more drama-

“Think think brainblast” LMFAO JUST FELL OFF MY CHAIR 13:40

You missed a pivotal point in the movie, where Zed swipes right on his Z-Band, and he turns into a human to impress Addison's parents. He had that ability THE WHOLE TIME.

I love how the bullies entire plan was just to endanger the entire school for no reason, and then were scared and surprised that "oh no the zombies are coming after me".

There’s a really great show called In the Flesh (that only got to run for two seasons rip) about the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse where the zombies have been “cured” but they have to have to take medication consistently or they’ll revert back to their mindless state. There’s a lot of tension from people who don’t want them back because they ate people, they have to wear contact lenses and makeup to blend in, and a lot of the zombies have ptsd from the entire experience. It’s very interesting. Also it’s not treated as a one-to-one allegory, but in the places where it’s analogous to anything it’s about being queer rather than racism. So the premise can be done. Just not like this 😅

This could be a really good psychological thriller where the zombies are conflicted about whether they’re the same as before they died, fighting to keep their loved ones from before the accident in their lives… the guilt about the things they did that they barely remember…

Eliza is actually such a confusing character bc she’s always like “humans are terrible and they hate us for no reason!!” And it’s like… idk if it’s for NO reason, Eliza. You have to wear government issued technology on your body at all times to keep you from cannibalizing your classmates

I'm finding Danny's search for self-identity very cathartic. Sure, he might not be a radio rebel, a camp rock, a princess protection program, or a zombie, but he isn't given up and neither should we

I can tell you from my daughter having a "Z-O-M-B-I-E-s" themed birthday part the songs are NOT unforgettable....I wish they were.

I feel I need to point this out. "Anything different is bad and we hate you if you are" is beyond racism; instead, it falls into the category of FASCISM
