#Watching Burial Ground. It’s one of those films that offers nothing in terms of a sense of human company. To explain: none of the dialogue is important, none of the actors show anything real, no touches of personality shine through. The actors are furniture. There is no directorial voice. I know it’s asking a lot for a dumb zombie movie to offer more than that, but nonetheless, it’s a criterion I use, usually subconsciously, to evaluate #movies, and this one is lonely as fuck. Good makeup, tho.

When Miles Langford, the head of Kennedy High School, decides to take his school back from the gangs, robotics specialist Dr. Robert Forrest provides "tactical education units".
