Lijkzang

About This Movie

Lijkzang is one of those indie horror flicks that sneaks up on you. It’s gritty and raw, with a palpable tension that just builds as the story unfolds. You’ve got these five friends heading to the Gay Pride parade, which sets a vibrant backdrop that contrasts sharply with the chaos they encounter. The pacing is relentless, especially once the zombies hit—there’s not much time to breathe. The practical effects, though, they really stand out; the makeup and gore have this unsettling realism that adds to the dread. And then there’s the atmosphere of Doctor Lijkzang’s house, which feels like a character itself—creepy and full of secrets. The underlying themes of love and survival weave through the madness, making it more than just a standard zombie flick.
