Cockneys vs Zombies

Cockneys vs Zombies (2012) is Matthias Hoene's British horror comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Construction workers crack open a tomb sealed since the days of Cromwell, and within an hour half of London's East End is shambling around hungry for flesh.

Brothers Terry and Andy round up a crew of fellow no-hopers to rob a bank, hoping the cash will save the retirement home where their granddad Ray (Alan Ford) lives. The heist goes sideways, hostages get taken, and outside the police have already been chewed apart by the undead. Now a handful of cockneys has to fight across a city of zombies to reach the pensioners — who, as it turns out, handle the apocalypse far better than their grandsons do. Ford brings the same foul-mouthed swagger he had in Snatch.

The humor is pure working-class London: rhyming slang, geriatric machine-gunners, and a chase where a zombie outpaces a man on a walking frame. Good fun for anyone who loved Shaun of the Dead. Stream Cockneys vs Zombies (2012) online on iFILM.
