Ravenous (Les affamés)

THE GIST: An unknown event causes some people to turn into cannibals and start attacking the uninfected. The dead pile up, while a few survivors come together to try and find a safe refuge.

Ravenous doesn't reinvent the wheel when it comes to movies about the zombie apocalypse, but it doesn't pretend to, and is nonetheless very effective in creating tension without relying on too much gore.

And not knowing some stuff doesn't hinder the enjoyment factor; it instead helps put the viewer in the shoes of the survivors, who also don't know much about what is going on.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Definitely recommended for the horror fans out there.

Grade: 7.5
