Watch Scouts vs. Zombies
- 2015
In Scouts vs. Zombies, Tye Sheridan plays Ben Goudy, a teenager who loves scouting and is determined to earn his Eagle Scout badge before his high school graduation. His best friends, Carter Grant (Logan Miller) and Augie Foster (Joey Morgan), are also scouts and share his passion for camping, knot-tying, and helping others. One night, while sleeping in the woods, they witness a strange meteorite crash nearby. They investigate the scene and discover that the meteorite was actually an alien spacecraft that carried a virus that turns people into zombies. They immediately run back to town to warn everyone, but no one believes them at first.
Meanwhile, the zombie virus spreads rapidly, infecting most of the town's population, including Ben's crush, Kendall Grant (Halston Sage), and a tough zombie-killing waitress named Denise Russo (Sarah Dumont). The only ones who seem unaffected are the scouts, who use their survival skills to fight off the zombie hordes and protect their families and friends.
As they journey through the town, Ben, Carter, and Augie encounter many challenges and meet several interesting characters, including a group of zombie strippers led by a son of a wealthy businessman (Patrick Schwarzenegger). They also learn that the only way to stop the zombie outbreak is to destroy the alien spacecraft before it unleashes more viruses.
With the help of Kendall, Denise, and the stripper zombies, the scouts embark on a dangerous mission to locate the spacecraft and blow it up. Along the way, they face many obstacles, including a zombie scoutmaster, a horde of zombie cats, and the powerful businessman's son, who wants to keep the zombie outbreak going for his own profit.
Scouts vs. Zombies is a hilarious horror-comedy that combines the best elements of scouting, zombie movies, and buddy comedies. The cast members have great chemistry and deliver plenty of laughs, scares, and heartwarming moments. Tye Sheridan, Logan Miller, and Joey Morgan are all excellent as the scouts, and Halston Sage and Sarah Dumont add a great sense of girl power to the mix.
The special effects and makeup are also impressive, with plenty of creative kills, gore, and zombie transformations. The film also manages to be surprisingly touching at times, especially in its depiction of the bond between the scouts and their families.
Overall, Scouts vs. Zombies is a fun, fast-paced, and entertaining movie that will appeal to fans of horror, comedy, and coming-of-age stories. While it doesn't reinvent the wheel of the zombie genre, it does provide a fresh twist on it and delivers enough laughs and scares to satisfy audiences of all ages. Whether you're a scout or not, this is one adventure you won't want to miss.
