Bullied by his boss, worked around the clock, he's nothing more than a corporate drone. All it takes is a zombie outbreak for him to finally feel alive! (Synopsis)

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead is not a perfect film by any means. However, just for two hours of mindless entertainment, it ticks enough boxes to be enjoyable. If this was a 'serious' zombie movie all of the characters would have been dead in 5 minutes from their crazy actions, but as it was, it was fun to see them miraculously escape again and again. The comedic highlight was definitely the zombie shark, which made my husband and I giggle multiple times. Would I rush to ever watch it again? Probably not. But for a single viewing it was amusing, and I practiced my Japanese listening skills a bit. I am giving it three stars.
