From the people who brought you Deadlocked (2020) comes an upgrade of sorts. Despite the comic undertones of the title, and the comedy lines from douche nozzle Toby as well as the "come to daddy," goading by the lead as he takes on the undead this is not a comedy. This is a zombie drama set in the rest room at a coffee shop, where tall, handsome, but mostly pathetic hunk Iverson and his newborn baby hold out with madman Harry, sarcastic barista Brie, fitness freak Annabel and absolute ass piece Toby as zombies pen them in.
There are precious view zombies, it is mostly the people who you are trapped with turning on you. And the baby crying puts them all on edge, turning one against the other whilst Iversen, who is a clear foot and easily 50 pounds bigger than all the others and could kill them all, is just too much of the wimpy kid. The CGI veins also sucked.
5/10
When I saw Deadlocked, which is set in an elevator, I was rather watch The End? from Italy, which is much better. This is a toilet zombie movie, so I would rather watch Stalled, again much better.
