Put on your finest Christmas duds and warm up those pipes of yours because we\u2019ve got a comedy horror\u2026 musical in store for you? Wait wait. This one is a comedy and a horror and a musical? All in one movie? You bet your butt it is! For our latest B-movie bonus episode, we watched the gruesome and hilarious John McPhail film, Anna and the Apocalypse.

So it\u2019s Christmas time in the U.K. and wouldn\u2019t you know it, there\u2019s a zombie apocalypse on. Just everyone\u2019s luck, right? You\u2019re about to finish up high school, you\u2019ve got big plans to travel the world, and then everyone starts turning up dead! Or rather, undead.

This is exactly the predicament Anna Shepherd finds herself in. Dang it, she just wants to start living the life she wants to live already! She wants it so bad that she\u2019s singing it out loud. In fact, everyone\u2019s singing in this one. It is a musical after all.

But what\u2019s to be done when zombies start taking over and eating everyone? Well, as the age-old wisdom goes, you start bashing in some zombie brains if you want to make it out alive. If you\u2019ve still got a song in your heart, well then you\u2019d better belt it out, as well. You never know how many of those opportunities you\u2019ll have before you end up dead.

Damn! I mean undead. Undead! Sheesh. You\u2019d think I\u2019d never seen a comedy horror musical about a zombie apocalypse before now or something.

When it comes to our monthly B-movie episodes, there\u2019s only one question we\u2019re trying to answer by the end: is this movie brilliant or a blunder? We\u2019ll leave it to you to listen to the episode to find out.
