Tenho mega paixão por zumbis e tubarões, quanto mais estranhos e bizarros, mais amo, e aqui não foi diferente, que filme delicioso, leve, divertido, sangrento, com zumbis espertinhos e famintos, inteligentes e silenciosos, que criam seitas satânicas, criancinhas fofinhas, belas imagens florestais, gritos e mais gritos, protagonistas lesadinhos e engraçadinhos, o guardinha que dá sustos, amei, personagens se perdendo, ótimo desenvolvimento, bons sustos. Excelente produção, canadense… Love Zumbis

This zombie film completely misses the mark. The characters are shallow, and it’s impossible to connect with any of them. The camera tries to achieve depth and tension, but it falls short. Rather than being engaging, the film often feels disorienting. The scene where zombies are holding hands is a perfect example of how it strays from the genre’s basic logic. A failed attempt at reinterpreting the zombie genre.

Thankfully not a traditional zombie apocalypse movie with intense action on every turn or breath. I really enjoyed the silence of the movie because it built up anxiety and an unknown expectation of dread. My favorite part, (spoiler alert!), was the part of the comedian being shot! It made me laugh because we all wanted it to happen. 😂 My wife and I watch every zombie movie we can get our hands on and we really appreciated the silent artistic approach as well as not having to explain the apocalypse or every character to make the story enjoyable. I enjoyed the ending without explanation because that is a reflection of life. You're not always going to get answers to everything you have questions about.

And finally.. A thoughtful zombie movie, that doesnt focus on slice and dice... And an ending with some hope....xxx

Ravinous is a visually captivating film set in a post-apocalyptic world. The director successfully creates an eerie atmosphere through haunting camera shots and atmospheric environments. However, the movie falls short in terms of character development, leaving me disconnected from the shallow and underdeveloped characters. While the visuals are impressive, the lack of depth in the characters prevents the film from leaving a lasting impact. Ravinous is finished, but ultimately unsatisfying, emphasizing style over substance.

The movie was alright, but what was the point? A group of survivors wandering around aimlessly, zombie field art, killing some zombie attack victims before they turn but not others..it didn't make sense. Was that the point, that in a zombie apocalypse there is no point?

If you're tired of The Walking Dead taking two years and 20 episodes to take their ragtag group of survivors from one place to another, Ravenous might be the film for you; it's character-oriented but things actually happen relatively quickly and have clearly established consequences. Focusing on silence permeated by moments of violence, and in particular lingering trauma, Robin Aubert's French-language Canadian zombie flick follows in a grand tradition of using the undead as political and social allegory. The zombies in the film are destructive, but are also organized and have a semblance of their own culture (a vaguely religious tendency to gather personal objects simply to observe them; shades of Romero consumerism?). For a Canadian province that has been perpetually distinct from the rest of Canada with its unique language and traditions, coupled with increasing social movement from even further flung territories, it's difficult not to see Ravenous as a depiction of modern culture clash. Featuring echoes of Tarkovsky's lonely and desolate landscapes and slow pace, Ravenous is an interesting and welcome update to the tired zombie formula that is worth a watch. (3.5/5)

Lifeless and dull. Like the dead. Not the undead.

This film manages well to give anxiety to the viewer even if it is very slow and without much sense accomplished to exist. The majority of the film is carried on thanks to the stupid choices of the protagonist that generate a terrible cascade effect.

At first, it feels like the movie is not leading to somewhere, as if it was just letting its characters move on their own, plot nowhere in sight. But it is entertaining and thrilling, nonetheless. There are little known facts about the characters yet I care for them too much. Recommendable.

Like watching somebody paint a dick on the mona lisa and watching that dry, where the dick is this movie and the mona lisa is a genre of movies you universally love. "Oh look! The zombies did a weird chair thing! Time to never explain or mention it again!"

I like how it is rather different from other zombie movies and include a lot of likable characters instead of unnecessary gore. But i must admit the ending kinda ruins it a bit...

Squandered potential. The film hints at greatness a few times but frustratingly has no idea how to realize it. The cast is interesting, but lacking character development. The plot hints at some potential for deeper meaning but does nothing to actually flesh it out and realize it. The movie quickly falls apart as the group decide to return to a field where they knew a massive horde had assembled and had nearly killed them. The character's contradict themselves or behave very stupidly many times and the film ultimately ends without accomplishing any thing of real merit.

Very very low budget movie... Child like special effects. Not even sure what the story is about as there is very little dialogue. People running around in the forest... Whoopie! If you want zombies that look like zombies and blood and gore this is NOT that movie

I love zombies, and this won awards. Wish I hadn't wasted my time. Don't waste yours.

This french language Canadian zombie flick is a fresh, intriguing, scary example of how good this subgenre can be. Centered around a group of survivors whose lives intersect post apocalypse. The zombies are different in this one although the transmission is the same they still possess an intelligence that links them altogether. They gather to create large sculptures and they are able to set traps for their intended victims. They appear together and call put for help. It's hella creepy and although the finale is subjective it's intended message is clear humans are the real monsters, it's definitely something that has been explored before just never life this, these creatures imitate what they once were. It's filled with chilling imagery and definitely leaves an impression long after the credits role. Props for including a lesbian couple as part ou f the survivors. 9/10

There's very little in this movie that you haven't seen a million times in previous zombie movies. This film's primary nuances rely on atmospheric cinematography and the very strange and unexplained zombie behaviors that represent zombie tropes like humans worshiping trash. Despite its minor shortcoming of repeated zombie scenes we've seen before, it is very atmospheric and worth watching at least once, and for the much more passionate horror movie fan, many times more.

RAVENOUS is a pretty solid French-Canadian zombie horror film. Zombies are showing strange behaviors in this one, but the desperation to survive doesn't let the characters really explore why the zombies are doing what they're doing. At the same time, the zombies might not know what they're doing except to hunt, gather and collect. Instead, those living characters with the right attitude, behaviors and capabilities are more successful at surviving. But mistakes are made and punishment for error is final. An interesting part of the story is how the characters try to build a story along the way. The zombie presence is so overwhelming, their individual and community stories are interrupted and survival has to be the main narrative or no other narrative will survive.

Sometimes I wonder if the critics are watching the same movie as I am. I'd say its marginally above average against the low, low bar of Netflix original horror movies, but that's not saying much. Watch this if you like a movie about people screaming for 100 minutes. Oh, and towers of chairs and toys, there is that for some reason too.

Turn off your brain to watch Vsauce Michael, Olga Kay, female Paul Mccartney and some other dumbasses die for an hour and a half straight. The plot? Something about chair towers.
