Corona Zombies is a low-budget horror-comedy film produced by Full Moon Features. The movie is a spoof of the COVID-19 pandemic and the way people have been reacting to it. It centers around a virus outbreak that turns people into zombies.
The film mocks the panic buying and hoarding of toilet paper that occurred during the pandemic by showing a group of survivors fighting over a single roll of TP. It also parodies the incompetence of world leaders in handling the crisis.
In addition to the zombies, the film also features a group of ditsy damsels in distress who find themselves in various perilous situations. The mass media is also satirized for its sensationalist coverage of the outbreak.
The film was shot entirely during the pandemic lockdown, using only footage from older films and newly shot scenes with the actors in quarantine. The result is a bizarre mishmash of recycled footage, green screen backgrounds, and over-the-top acting.
Despite its questionable taste and production value, Corona Zombies has gained some popularity thanks to its relevance to current events. It has been praised by some as a clever and campy satire of the pandemic, while others view it as tasteless and insensitive.
