A solid fun B-movie! Wyrm Wyrm Wyrm! I didn't enjoy the first film at all the first time, suffered less with the second time round, but still couldn't get into it. The sequel, however, is significantly better in many ways. Wyrmwoood doesn't have the best craftsmanship and technical side, it still has that semi-amateur, but it's genre-playful, original, brutal, and action-packed, it has its own look and style and that has to be appreciated nowadays. The film picks up right after the first one and it doesn't really matter if nobody remembers it anymore. I enjoyed the main character of the soldier, a likeable tough dude who has subtly adapted to the zombie apocalypse. The film has no convoluted plot, it moves along in a straightforward manner and that's not a bad thing. The film has a lot of creative and cool ideas that I haven't seen in Zombie films (a zombie Farm! Zombie Kamikaze! Zombie drugs! Telepathic zombie! Zombie Frankenstein controlled by VR). Everything is well put together and handmade (guns, cars, armory, gore!), and the half hour finale is very juicy, especially the duel with Frankenstein – that was really good. Good for me. I'm glad to see that finally gore is coming to the fore again and now those introspective individuals have to suffer. Good for them, there's been enough drama. Story 3/5. Action 4/5, Humor 2/5, Violence 4/5, Fun 4/5 Music 3/5, Visuals 3/5, Atmosphere 3/5, Suspense 3/5, Emotion 2/5, Actors 3/5. 7.5/10.

As far as the plot goes, I don't quite remember the first Wyrmwood, but the sequel left me with a similar impression: a frantic, unhinged, over-the-top zombie romp that successfully covers up its low budget with enthusiastic fanboy style and energy.

The first Wyrmwood was undoubtedly a star better for me. In Apocalypse, I missed a bigger dose of black humor, and I really didn't care for the reference to Evil Dead. That pointer just didn't do it for me this time, so the scenes with it weren't very entertaining. The cyborg zombie, on the other hand, was great, but as I mentioned, it just wasn't funny enough. Not that it mattered much; there were plenty of organs flying through the air, and finding a dry spot on the ground seemed impossible. So, I can't complain about that aspect, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the first installment. / Lesson learned: Always read the package leaflet before use
