World War Z is an epic zombie film from director Juan Antonio Bayona that demonstrates why the genre continues to captivate audiences.
Starring an intense Brad Pitt, it chronicles the struggle of a former UN researcher to stop a zombie pandemic that threatens to wipe out humanity.
What begins as isolated outbreaks quickly escalates into an apocalyptic avalanche on a global scale.

With terrifying sequences of masses of infected, Bayona manages to convey human frailty in the face of a massive threat. And while the action scenes are intense, it is the desperation of those desperately seeking to save their loved ones that is most moving.
Fast-paced and lavishly produced, World War Z is pure entertainment at its best, but as well as being jaw-droppingly spectacular, it strikes a chord by reminding us how fragile our existence is.
