The Rezort - A Zombie Vacation


The Rezort

A zombie movie! Yes, I love zombie movies even when they’re terrible. This one had a good premise; it was much about the humans and their own kind of evil, rather than the zombies. They were just the excuse the humans need (or don’t) to make stupid mistakes and do bad deeds.

Far From a Masterpiece


I must admit the movie wasn’t good, but it could’ve been. Well, at least a little bit better. I mean, we have a post-apocalyptic world with a zombie infestation, where everything is rebuilt and everyone is trying to find a way to live and achieve normality again and go back to their daily lives. 

It’s new; usually in this sort of story, things don’t come back to what they were. Usually, they build a new world, totally different, like in The Walking Dead, but here, humanity wins. Maybe.

I think they mean to show us that what truly happens is that mankind never learns.

Vacation and Trauma


Instead of finishing off all the zombies, they decided to create a beautiful place to go on vacation. The special attraction? Zombie killing! What could possibly go wrong?

Well, beyond that, we have a protagonist with some traumas - PTSD - from the time of the war (or so they called it when the zombies ran free), but that’s not really fully explored, as with pretty much everything else in the movie. 

As in movies like Quarantine 2: Terminal, even the ideas that could indeed be very interesting are, unfortunately, totally neglected.

Learn to Question

Is it worth it? It may depend on how you like to spend your time. Yet, it teaches us to pause and think critically about things. How?

I don’t want to give you spoilers or anything, so let’s just say that in the end, you’ll be asking yourself how it was possible that after so many years, no one had even wondered how the resort was still in business.

Review: Billie Eilish: Unfiltered – A Shallow, Soulless Recap Pretending to Be a Documentary

  Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5) If you're expecting Billie Eilish: Unfiltered to offer an intimate look into the life, artistry, or creative process of one of Gen Z’s most influential pop icons, prepare to be disappointed.  This so-called documentary barely scratches the surface, delivering little more than a dry, lifeless rundown of Billie Eilish 's discography, awards, and chart performances. At best, it's a glorified Wikipedia entry with background music. At worst, it’s a wasted hour of potential. Unfiltered? The documentary lacks narrative depth, personal insight, or any meaningful exploration of who Billie Eilish is beyond her resume. Rather than providing behind-the-scenes footage, raw interviews, or critical commentary, Unfiltered relies on a monotonous narrator reeling off her achievements like items on a grocery list. There are occasional quotes from Billie herself, but they’re so brief and context-free they feel like filler material. For a documentary claiming to be “u...

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

  In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...
