It's just not Halloween without a zombie film.Two construction workers break open a vault sealed in 1666 and release a flood of zombies into modern London's East End. Meanwhile, two brothers (Rasmus Hardiker and Harry Treadway) decide to rob a bank in order to get enough money to save their grandfather's (Alan Ford) retirement home from being destroyed by the same construction group. Now, these would-be bank robbers, their hostage (Georgia King), their cousin (Michelle Ryan), friend (Jack Doolan) and local psycho (Ashley Thomas) have to rescue the old-timers before they are eaten by the walking dead.
It's refreshing to see a zombie movie clearly aware of zombies. None of this "what are they?" "What do we do?" "What's wrong with Grandma?" bullshit, just straight up "Oh, zombies. Okay, aim for the head and don't let them bite you."
Cockneys vs Zombies doesn't rewrite the zombie movie formula but it is a really fun watch. It's currently streaming for free on Tubi or on Amazon Prime if you're fancy. Keep an eye out for former Bond girl Honor Blackman as well.
