Characters behave so unrealistically

My suspension of disbelief was completely shattered after the second zombie meeting, and just continued to be trampled on throughout the movie. The average man wouldn't sex a random willing hooker in a basement, much less in front of his friends, and much less a half-sentient decaying zombie. I mean, come on.

The movie looked alright, sure, but that's about it. Oh, and TJ's speech at the end was so heavy handed. "It's us vs to world man! This is totally justified, we have control here!" Ugh.

I agree. Hollywood, nowadays especially, likes to appease the feminists out there by portraying men (especially teens and twenty-somethings) as women-hating, dumb animals. They also tend to make them weaker and able to be defeated physically by women. Look at any show or film today. They make a 110lb woman knock a 180lb man out with a punch or kick. Really? Ha. Our media is definitely in lala land.

Don't forget that apparently nothing would ever happen to the jocks after they beat the *beep* out of the two protagonists in the high school parking lot, and the other kid started yelling about the dead girl and how they don't need anyone else. So they throw them in the back of a car and bring them to her? All of these characters are terribly stupid, and that was a ridiculous way to advance the plot.

"Oh yeah? You stupid jocks, we got our own woman we have sex with all the time so take that!" Incredibly stupid.

You should watch The River's Edge.

Then we'll talk again about characters reacting unrealisticly around a dead body.
