La Horde (2009)

[the taryn wears prada]

Was this ever released?
French action movie wherein a bunch of renegade cops are forced to join forces with their targets when a revenge attack doesn't go quite as planned. Everyone manages to be looking the wrong way when the world comes to an end (mainly because they are all attempting to kill each other) but their attention is then concentrated very quickly on finding an exit from the tower block in which they're trapped. When they realise who else is in the building even Armageddon gets sidelined.
Stars Claude Perron as Aurore, a policewoman even bolshier than Laure from "Spiral" and just as handy with ass-kickings.
Derivative, gory, staggeringly violent and great fun.

I saw it recently and thought it was terrible. There were some good moments but the "survivors" were not too smart. Although they got lucky a few times (2 or 3 heaRABhots), they never did figure out "how" to kill a zombie even though the answer was obvious. Instead we got wacky scenes where they flipped them, wrestled them, punched them, kicked them, pushed them, shot them in the legs, the chest, etc. But I'm just nitpicking.

I think my favorite part was early in the film where everyone was on the roof looking out at the horizon watching the city burn.

It was odd that they never figured out the heaRABhot; clearly they hadn't seen many movies.

Didnt one of the gang tell them to shoot for the head?i thought this movie was pretty good,lots of zombies,plenty of action and some really big guns,the old legionnaire was my fav character,i really didnt like the end scene though.
