Unlike “Mutants”, “The Horde” takes place in Paris and is
teeming with thousands of hungry undead. This movie is filled with action
sequences which feature the survivors going one on one with a zombie at various
points; these scenes are fine but last too long and feel repetitive. The film
is more action than horror and doesn’t try to build suspense, the closest it
gets is when a gun jams or they run out of ammo right when a mob of zombies is
closing in on them. It’s one of the better zombie movie choices on Netflex at
the moment but it doesn’t offer anything new to the genre.
The plot is simple but interesting; a group of rogue cops try
to extract revenge on a drug dealer after he kills one of their own. Everything
goes downhill pretty damn fast when they realize how poorly thought out their
attack plan is and how prepared the drug gang is. While the gang is dealing
with the cops, the zombie apocalypse begins and they realize that they should
work together in order to survive. The ending is surprising and fulfilling in
one respect but makes you slap your head in another.
Favorite moment – When this scene happens!!! (see picture
below).
