Why do people like 'A Ride in the Park?'


It's insanely boring. There's no creativity, which is made all the worse by virtue of zombies being oversaturated right now. Even the "zombie's perspective" thing has been done. Please explain why this segment doesn't suck.

Agreed. Apart from the creative gimmick of the camera, as soon as I saw that it was just another zombie cash-in I wanted to turn it off.

As soon as I realized it was going to be from a zombie's perspective, I knew it was going to lack any tension whatsoever, you know, because the protagonist was the monster. There's a wonderful German film about a serial killer called Angst that pulls this off. But let's be honest, the people behind VHS aren't exactly art house mavens.

When I first saw it, I thought it would be connected to the first VHS movie that took place in a forest. And that the bicyclist here was trying to find answers to what happened. That would've been interesting.
