Verdict on Stalled
Stalled is a horror comedy following a janitor who finds himself trapped in a toilet stall when a zombie outbreak happens. He can’t just escape and must figure out the best way to get out. However, it isn’t going to be as easy as he had hoped.
This is a low-budget effective horror comedy, using confined space to bring us a new vision of a zombie movie. It gets the laughs when it needs to and has extremely good make-up effects. Dan Palmer does a great job at carrying most of the movie with his comic timing. While the environment uses different materials to help in the fight back against the zombies.
Where to Watch
Final Thoughts –Stalled is a silly but enjoyable horror comedy.
