Storyline
The musical Zombie Love tells the story of Dante, a 200 year old zombie, who falls in love with Claudia, a mortal girl, after he saves her from an attack by two grave robbers. Thinking that a zombie could never win her love, he changes his flesh-eating ways in order to win the girl of his dreams. The closer Dante gets to his desired love, the harder he finds it to maintain the facade, especially when his zombie friends encourage him to eat a teenage girl they have captured. What Dante doesn't know, however, is that Claudia is already in love with the zombie that saved her from the robbers and desperately tries to find him. This musical extravaganza, filled with singing, dancing, blood and gore, will have you laughing all the way to your grave! Written by

He'll steal you're heart, if he doesn't eat it first!
What should have been a two minute film with a weak punchline goes for an interminable length of time, with nothing interesting happening during its entirety.
The "cleverness" of having epic songs throughout do not hide the amateurishness. Bad acting, bad makeup, no jokes, horrible editing, and decent singing but of songs that you cannot hear the lyrics of. It has the entertainment value of a third rate school play.
Zombie films are two a penny these days, so trying for something original is admirable, but there's more to a successful film than a new twist on an idea.
A good place to start improving this film might be tightening the edit, learning about comic timing, and figuring out how to write jokes so that they're actually funny.
I do not know why it got so many awards - I can only imagine its competition was entirely unwatchable.
