Jan 16th  
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies     
(GB/US 2015)

In an alternative 19th century Britain the martial arts trained Bennett sisters seek suitable husbands in the midst of an ongoing plague ward against zombies.
Straight faced comic book, translating the subtexts of Jane Austen's story into literal action and gory violence. Quite sustained for such nonsense, and the perfect fantasy for fans of Jane Austen and zombie films - wherever exactly that demographic lies.

Starring: Lily James, Sam Riley, Matt Smith, Charles Dance, Bella Heathcote, Jack Huston, Douglas Booth, Lena Headey, Sally Phillips.
Photography: Remi Adefarasin.
