Zombies

come with sharp, pointy teeth here, courtesy of the most lethal rodents this side of Monty Python And The Holy Grail. Alas, the killer critters are less convincing than Python’s psycho bunny, and even they’re more believable than a cast so wooden they were always destined to be beaver fodder.

Mock schlock is clearly the agenda of this lazy attempt to out- kook Sharknado, but Zombeavers isn’t funny enough to be a spoof nor scary enough to be a horror. Instead, it’s a cynical excuse for an unpleasant bunch of college students to get their kit off, and get out- thought by the beavers. The title’s the best thing about it.

The Blu- ray ( rated) comes with audition tapes, three featurette­s and a deleted scene. The DVD gets 3D lenticular packaging – whoop! Richard Edwards
