The cast shows spark and gusto, especially Laura Harris as a vulnerable yet intrepid survivor type and Danny Dyer as a bent druggie who straightens out long enough to fight back.

It is wonderfully wry, and contains some great gags.

Like Shaun of the Dead, the movie enthusiastically embraces all the grotesque cliches we love and have come to expect from the form -- turning several on their ear.
