Hello Cinephiles,
Today we’re talking about the 2025 film Zombies 4: Dawn of the Vampires.
Story
A twist on Romeo and Juliet that makes both main characters into leaders on opposites on a racial feud. The romantic leads are charismatic and do a great job. The original cast shines as mentors. It’s nice to seem them happy, working together, and without any interpersonal drama. There was plenty of that with the romantic leads and the two clans.
Score: 1
Characters
The original cast are consistent with the previous movies and managed to understand the importance of being with the people you love. They romantic leads have identical stories about proving they are good enough. It’s nice to see, if less and less believable, that the authorities changed their ways when presented with overwhelming evidence.
The whole cast is charismatic and owns each scene and song.
Score: 1
Dialogue
The dialogue is a little young but there are some great quips and the message of tolerance and being stronger together is, unfortunately, very timely.
Score: 1
Visuals and Music
The night shots were much too dark. It was frustrating to not see the dances and character movements. When there was a lot of light it was a wonderful mix of the candy coloured and monochrome.
The sounds are catchy and had some great callbacks to the previous movies.
Score: 0.5
Fun
This was a perfect cap on the series and a great beginning for future ones without the original cast. Everyone loved it.
Score: 1
Overall
Another fun and colourful movie in the franchise that pushes hope. It’s only really hurt by the literal darkness of a lot of the scenes.
Final Score: 4.5 Stars out of 5
