January 28th 2012, again some new posters for the film are released. These new posters are evidence once again of the films comedy element, reminding us of satirized political posters.

Warm Bodies was released on the 1st of February.

As with most films there were interviews after with members of the cast,, in the case the 2 main characters.

The film in the end got semi-decent reviews, with most critics agreeing that it was a bit different.

One thing I would say about the film is that it has a very good brand identity, which it had started to construct even from the first poster released pre-production. Zombie Rom-Com, something only previously achieved to a suitable standard by Edgar Wright’s ‘Shaun of the Dead’ (2004.)So to be put in the same bracket as this legendary zombie comedy is quite something.
