The Loneliest Boy in the World

Stumbling upon the 2022 horror comedy "The Loneliest Boy in the World" by random chance, reading the synopsis and realizing that this was a horror comedy with zombies, then of course I had to sit down and watch the movie immediately.

Granted, I hadn't heard about this movie from writer Piers Ashworth, Emilio Estevez and Brad Wyman prior to actually sitting down to watch it, so I didn't know what to expect, nor did I know what I was in for. But still, it being a horror comedy with zombies, it had potential for sure.

The storyline told in "The Loneliest Boy in the World" was not overly great. Sure, the movie was watchable, though this is hardly an outstanding or memorable zombie horror comedy. And while I managed to sit through the entire movie, then I doubt that I will ever return to watch it again, simply because the storyline was too plain and mundane.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, though I think that the actors and actresses did good enough jobs with the severe limitations imposed on them by an inferior script, plot and character gallery.

Visually then "The Loneliest Boy in the World" was actually good. I liked the special effects, and they were definitely fair for a horror comedy of this caliber.

All in all, then my rating of director Martin Owen's 2022 horror comedy "The Loneliest Boy in the World" lands on a four out of ten stars.
