Oh Annie Hathaway you sweet, annoying soul. Why do people hate you so much? Why do I hate you so much? Well here she is again playing an oddly grating alcoholic looking to start her life again in her hometown. Jason Sudeikis costars in the Canadian co-pro directed by Nacho Vigalondo ( Timecrimes) that is a unique window into addiction. Oh yeah and there's a giant monster destroying everything in its path.
Wow I honestly don't work for Netflix, but damn they seem to have a lot of good shit coming out in the next couple of months so here we are. I know Drew Barrymore is kind of love/hate; her acting can be like watching a toothless baby slurp on a bowl of mashed bananas but also look how cute she is! Victor Fresco ( Better Off Ted) helms this suburban mom take on the classic zombie movie. A housewife turned cannibal with an underappreciated Timothy Olyphant as her reluctant sidekick? Hell yes.Follow Amil on Twitter.
