Comedy horror Yummy (2019) is delightfully gory, revelling in the bloody excesses of the genre. A dodgy Eastern European hospital, cashing in on the demand for cheap cosmetic surgery, supplements the usual boob-jobs, face-lifts, and liposuction, with an unethical sideline in experimental treatments that, you guessed it, turn patients into ultra-violent zombies. There’s not much to the story. Shortly after a young woman and her partner arrive at the dystopian looking hospital, infection escapes, and a small band of survivors do everything they must to escape. The fun of the film is surrendering to the gruesome violence and a suitably nihilistic end.
