3.0 out of 5 star rating Zack Snyder is one of several filmmakers credited with revitalising the popularity of zombies in the early Noughties, as his Dawn of the Dead remake turned heads with its hyper-aggressive sprinting undead. For this reason, it’s notable that he has chosen to return to the monsters as the intense interest they once enjoyed has petered out, with only AMC’s The Walking Dead still carrying the torch. Army of the Dead might not be good enough for Snyder to jumpstart the zombie craze for a second time, but it packs enough new ideas to show that there’s still some life here after all.
