About This Movie

So, 'Rising Up: The Story of the Zombie Rights Movement' is this quirky mockumentary from 2009 that mixes comedy with horror in a way that feels kinda unique. It's a satirical take on those '60s counterculture movements, but instead of the usual suspects, it’s all about advocating for the rights of zombies. The pacing has this relaxed, almost documentary-style vibe that makes the absurdity of the premise more engaging. The practical effects are surprisingly good, giving those zombies a real-life quality that adds to the humor. Performances are a mixed bag, but they fit the tongue-in-cheek tone perfectly. It’s definitely not your standard zombie flick, and that’s what makes it stand out. A real oddity for collectors, if you ask me.
