Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is a poorly stitched together attempt at reinvigorating a classic Austen tale. The story follows a heroine by the name of Elizabeth Bennet and her tempestuous and misinterpreted romance with a man named Fitzwilliam Darcy as they navigate their feelings for each other and a zombie filled landscape that they call home. Their names, however, are the only things to actually resemble the iconic story that millions of readers fall in love with every year.
The film is so bloated with zombie battles and undead cries that you lose the heart of what made the book so enjoyable. The screenwriters warped and deformed the book so that the only thing you recognize in it is the name. Many a book-to-movie lover will be bewildered at the strange turns this film takes and tired out by the generic story that they've put in its place. I wouldn't recommend this to Austen fans, and I don't think I'd even recommend it to Zombie fans. 5/10
