"Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End (Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin) is the film adaptation of the eponymous novel by Spanish author Manel Loureiro, which originated as a serial on a blog and became a sensation in the 2000s, leading to a complete trilogy. However, despite the context of the original novel, the film fits perfectly with our contemporary "pandemic anxieties." Directed by Carles Torrens (The Boarding School: Las Cumbres), the plot is set in Galicia, where a lawyer takes refuge with his cat in his home while a strange virus devastates the population, turning everyone into zombies. Safe at home, he soon finds himself needing to venture outside to search for food and survivors, putting his life at risk against the hungry undead. Filmed in a frenetic style closer to the action and horror of World War Z than that of George A. Romero, it is an experience that, while not innovating in the genre, will certainly keep you on the edge of your seat."
