This review contains minor spoilers. Remember Shaun Of The Dead? A funny zombie comedy with laugh out loud moments. Now here's Boy Eats Girl starring former teen pop star Samantha Mumba trying her hand at acting, and failing miserably. The movie follows 17 year old Nathan who is in love with Mumba's character Jessica. He's finally plucked up the courage to tell her and guess what? He dies. Coincidentally, Nathan's mum found a book of voodoo magic prior to his death. Fancy that! So she decides to resurrect him using a spell from the book. Big mistake love. Nathan comes back as a zombie, eating human flesh and whatnot and the zombie curse manages to infect his whole neighbourhood. Blatant rip-off of Shaun Of The Dead? Possibly. Okay, yes. But it's not all that bad. There are a few chuckles along the way and the makeup is pretty decent for a movie with such a limited budget. But other than that it's pretty damn awful. First of all, the title is majorly misleading. Boy does not eat girl. In fact, the boy doesn't even attempt to eat the girl. Despite being a zombie he only manages to bite one person and the scene in which it takes place is pretty dull anyway. I would highly recommend avoiding this at all costs, but if you are intrigued online stores are practically giving this away. http://ukmore.tk/

...with the only thing of note about it being that it was made in Ireland, and given the over(t)ly earnest attempt to imitate American cinema/TV, its Gaelic origins hardly matter. If "Boy Eats Girl" really had a $5mil budget, the bulk of it must have gone to one of its ostensible leads, pop singer Samantha Mumba, who had a moment in the sun in a smallish part in the mostly-wretched 2002 remake of "The Time Machine," and apparently came away from the experience with the idea that she's an actress. She's not, and her casting in this bit of romzomcom dross is ample proof of that. She qualifies as a pretty face with a certain zaftig appeal, and, I'm sorry to say, not much more. The rest of the cast doesn't fare much better, and as is always the case, the blame must be placed squarely where it belongs, on the inept shoulders of the screenwriter, although I suppose the questionable efforts of a visionless director might also be to blame. The listless, threadbare plot, such as it is, focuses on a pathetic pretty boy who can't seem to score with the girl of his dreams and opts for suicide to relieve his miseries (apparently, he's never heard of *). Mom resurrects him, though, thanks to a handy-dandy book of spells she's stolen from a nearby church, only she somehow overlooks a missing portion of the potion and ends up with sonny-boy as a slowly degenerating, infectious dead thingamabob who soon spreads the zombie meme to his classmates. The ensuing mayhem, delivered with all the finesse of a hamfisted school boy, features little in the way of hilarity, virtually no suspense, no horror, no pathos, and certainly nothing in the way of a fresh take on the genre. There's plenty of gore, which is eventually released in such paroxysms of spew and rubbery body parts that this viewer could only suspect that someone was trying desperately to make up for the paucity of everything that had gone before; none of it works on any level at all. I'd give "Boy Eats Girl" (said title, btw, being an insultingly brazen example of misrepresentation) an even lower rating if it weren't for a certain level of professionalism concealed within the thing. The cinematography is passable, if derivative (pointless dolly shots that do nothing to advance mood or plot, for instance), and the sets and locations, costumes, and so on are miles ahead of most exploitation cheapies, but none of it is of any avail. The best intentions still end up you-know-where. Boredom viewing only. Utter waste of time otherwise.

Samantha Mumba can come and plow on my farm anytime. The way she used a harvester to make mincemeat out of a group of zombies was inspired. You really can't take this seriously. It's more Shaun of the Dead that a real zombie movie. But, if you just sit back and watch while you are playing Farmville, then you will have an enjoyable experience. Of course, the title is wrong. There were no boys eating girls except in the zombie sense. However, Sara James was doing some serious eating. Tadhg Murphy and Laurence Kinlan were very funny. Like I said, don't take it seriously, and just sit back and enjoy it and you will not be disappointed.

Alright! This film is just real fun! (What I did first was watching Slither, another funny and sometimes spooky horror-movie and just after it, I watched Boy Eats Girl and my package of these two films really entertained me a lot!) Boy Eats Girl, though it is a teen horror, has also good camera shots in some scenes besides making you laugh in general, but be sure most of the things you laugh at purely comes from the fact that the wits are good enough and the movie isn't one of those poor teen-horrors which unfortunately suck while seriously trying to scare you! Those Irish guys made a good job and if you want to have a good time, alone or with your friends, take a look at it! Note: David Leon is great:)

Some of the worst continuity errors I have seen ! Specifically, in the opening sequence when the lads are driving a bit crazy, the car is a 1996 VW Golf with a Dublin registration, yet when they pull up in front of the house to drop off Jess, the car has suddenly changed into a 1993 Golf with a Kildare reg ! When the car crashes after they run down Craig, it has turned back into the 96 Dublin reg. car again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All in all it's a pretty mediocre offering, but it is just so tongue in cheek you have to laugh, some of the gory bits are fun, like the arm spinning round in the thresher on the tractor and bits of body scattered across the lawns, a real no-brainer.

Story about a teenager who accidentally kicks the bucket, but only to return as a zombie like teenager. Thirst for blood and need for human flesh included. Throw in some lovey dovey side-plot crap and you basically have Boy Eats Girl. The flick most importantly, isn't that bad. It's actually kinda entertaining. With a decent amount of grue and silly Irish teen humor, it ain't that bad. But the flick just wasn't that memorable. With alright gore, alright acting, and alright ideas being presented, it just doesn't grab you like a comedy or a horror should. It wasn't truly funny or scary. It's basically a rehash of everything you've probably seen before in the Zom/Com/Rom sub-genre. I can tell you one thing, there was a female character in this flick, that desperately needed to get naked. But she did not. She played the bitchy *, and showed off her cleav throughout. I guess the makers thought they were making a flick that didn't need it. Wrong. Note to all horror film-makers everywhere: If you're gonna have a slutty chick in a movie (with big tits in this case), have her show some damn skin. Only good can come from this. Boys Eats Girl is a pretty damn average RomZomCom flick that was entertaining based solely on the amount of blood it spilled. But where it matters, like in the laugh and chills department, it just didn't get it done. Though it is recommendable, it has a "teen movie" charm, uses a slightly different approach to zombie flicks and, yep, the blood.

The restorer and single mother Grace (Deirdre O'Kane) is working in an ancient church and she finds a hidden crypt with a voodoo book of resurrection. However, Father Cornelius (Lalor Roddy) asks her to go home and forget her findings. Her son Nathan (David Leon) is a sensitive and shy teenager bullied by Samson (Mark Huberman) at school. He has a crush on his friend Jessica (Samantha Mumba), but he does not declare to her. His best friends Diggs (Tadhg Murphy) and Henry (Laurence Kinlan) schedule a date of Jessica with Nathan. However her father grounds her in her bedroom and when Nathan calls Jessica, her father tells that she has dated a good looking guy in a car. Jessica flees through the window, but Nathan and Jessica fail to meet each other. Jessica takes a ride in Kenneth's car and Nathan believes that she is dating the schoolmate. He goes home, drinks whiskey and puts a rope around his neck. When Grace comes home, she opens Nathan's bedroom door and accidentally she hangs her son. Grace resurrects Nathan, but soon she finds that something did not work out when her son bites Samson and his schoolmates start eating each other. "Boy Eats Girl" is an unoriginal Irish comedy about a group of zombies that are not living dead, but teenagers infected by the bites of their schoolmates that follows the American style with Irish accent. This B- movie entertains, but is not funny enough for a comedy or frightening for a horror movie. The lead actress is miscast for the role of Jessica and the * Cheryl is never naked along the story; therefore one of the basic rules of a B-movie is broken. But there are also funny dialogs that make laugh. My vote is five. Title (Brazil): Not Available

If you've seen "Die Nacht der Lebenden Loser" (I guess it's called "Night of the Living Dorks" in English), you can basically imagine this movie to be an exact rip-off, except that this one has more gore in it, but less good gags in exchange. That said: It's enjoyable. The gore and FX are well-done most of the time, the zombies do look decent. The acting isn't bad and there are actually some gags that work. It's too bad that most of them don't, however, at least not for me. The main character turns into a zombie more slowly than anybody else, but that's okay. The problem is, his desire to eat humans obviously is so small, it doesn't even count, and there are no funny scenes like "oops, I ate *insert name here*" or anything like that. Lots of occasions for gags wasted. For a comedy that's pretty lame. Still, there are a few gags in there, the zombies are decent, the gore is good and the story isn't that bad, which makes the film enjoyable.

If you scratch the surface of this film you will find so many plot holes and problems that you won't enjoy it. Easy solution - Watch it for what it is. A COMEDY. We expe3ct people to behave in strange ways in comedy films and we understand that it is essential to the plot. Some people here have complained about the Zombies and why this or that happened and would it have happened, etc, etc. For me I treated the film as mental flow and thoroughly enjoyed it. Lots on Blood, guts and limbs, lots of violence and hints of sex. What more can you ask of a black comedy. So what if the mothers first thought was black magic rather that the paramedics. Who cares that some zombies changed immediately. If you watch the film for what it is then you should enjoy it, treat it like Citizen Caine or some deep french drama and you'll ruin it for yourself. All the clues to what it's going to be like are there, from the title itself to the animated chase scene after the introductory screen finishes and the title screen begins. If you want a film to analyse I'd suggest Death Tunnel or Asylum BTW. Angelfish
