The opening film at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival was the wacky gore-fest Final Cut, a remake of Shin’ichirô Ueda’s no-budget Japanese mega-hit zombie movie, One Cut of the Dead, about a filmmaker making a no-budget zombie movie in which the cast and crew, one by one, actually turn into zombies.  It doesn’t get any more meta than this, and Oscar-winning director Michel Hazanavicius plays that silliness for all it’s worth.  While what’s on screen unfolds in typical cheesy B-movie fashion, it’s the off-screen mishaps and debacles that genuinely push the film into the realm of high farce.  More comedy than horror film or zombie flick, Final Cut revels in its goofy lowbrow genre-movie fun!
