Warm Bodies (2013)

FILM4, 9.00PM ★★★

This teenage romance takes the “pale and interesting” archetype to a bold new extreme: its male lead is a reanimated corpse. Nicholas Hoult plays a zombie called R, which is one of the few sounds a zombie can pronounce. The twist is this: behind his grey-green flesh, R is still fully sentient, and when he meets Julie (Teresa Palmer), a young survivor of the living dead’s onslaught, something stirs in his heart. A zomromcom.
