GENRE: Musical Film

SYNOPSIS: Anna and the Apocalypse is not only blazing that new trail, it’s also got the hilarious, clever, and compelling chops to make it stick. With songs as catchy as the violence is gory, join Anna and her angsty friends as they fight, sing, and dance their way through the descending hordes of the undead and try to make it out of high school alive (there’s a metaphor in there, I’m sure). If you loved Shaun of the Dead but thought it needed more show-tunes (and weapons made out of giant candy canes), this fellow British import is the entertaining mayhem you seek.
