Doesn't this sound like an absolute must-see experience? A festival-circuit horror flick from Argentina, about an all-girls rock band that encounters a peculiar zombie-outbreak at the forsaken beach town where their last gig supposedly should take place!

Hell yeah, sounds terrific... but in reality, it's a big mess! Zombie movies usually make the mistake of being overly simplistic and derivative, but "Pussycake" does the opposite, and the result is even worse. The zombie virus originates from a teenage genius who attempts to bring his missing scientist father back from a parallel universe, but accidentally causes a zombie invasion. Not the regular type of undead corpses, mind you, but zombies that bury their preys up to the necks in sand and a barf white goo all over defenseless human targets. Oh yes, and there also a sort of Predator that hunts for an alien kind of parasite. I didn't really capture the added value of that.

It's all very confusing and not the least bit coherent, but what's even worse is that it also isn't very entertaining or exciting. Apart from a couple of well-handed gory sequences and admirable make-up effects, "Pussycake" is dull and annoying. The female lead stars, although being good actresses and having rockstar charisma (most of them, at least) are totally lost in the hectic screenplay. Huge misfire.
