Whether you care or not, it's been on our radar for a while. It can be said that it has written a rich and colorful decimal point in the history of lost films.
This zombie film is similar to the Indonesian film "The Raid", and both brought me unexpected surprises beyond the established ones. The United States has it, the United Kingdom has it, and Spain has it. Zombies have finally descended on the small country of Cuba in the Caribbean Sea.
Juan, a middle-aged man who claims to have escaped Marel's smuggling, the conflict in Angola, a special period, and all kinds of things that happened later, a careless poor boy, and an extremely wretched father, is obviously a success in characterization. The three fools performed a comedy scene, with the addition of a few supporting roles, the sissy, the bloody strong man, and the last death one after another added a terrifying element to the comedy. When feeling terrified, such as when the zombies approached step by step, the lights suddenly stopped, and when I was worried about the protagonist, it stayed in the dark for a long time, only to hear a burst of howls, when the lights were on, the intestines of the zombies swayed around. Lying down, the old woman also hung up, making people laugh out loud. Juan didn't run away in the end, obviously he and Rambo belonged to the jungle-like, it belongs to this kind of place where killing is free. Can't handle the lover who becomes a living corpse? It does not matter! Immortal Juan, kill the one you love! The sound will reverberate over Havana for a long time.
In the end, who will survive? Is it a hero, or is it the president? Of course these hooligans, this is the golden age of bloody men.
Imagine the next one, Juan will organize a mercenary, use the head of the corpse to form his head, just at the sign of Guevara, open his own private museum, you can see the president, the dignitary, the closed In a cage for tourists from home and abroad to visit (Brothers of Socialism).
For directors who completed film studies in Cuba, replacing those hatred of the United States with dark humor is worth learning in other small languages or regions. Especially "Abandoned City", this is a movie with a variety of zombie elements, but the only thing lacking is logic. All hearts have, the only thing lacking is sincerity.
This film can be made a sequel, and I fully look forward to the development of the ghost director.
