The Film Board convenes! We're back on the Zack Snyder train with the first entry in what promises to be a big, nasty zombie universe - the Netflix film Army of the Dead.

Board the container with Pete Wright, Jordan Petersen, and Ocean Murff as we head to Vegas. Coming on the heels of Zack Snyder's Justice League re-cut, and with his zombie credibility locked thanks to 2004's Dawn of the Dead, we came into this with high hopes.

It's a blockbuster, with every Netflix dollar up on screen in hordes of running, crouching, shambling zombies. How well does Snyder and team create the world of Dead Vegas? What do we think of his signature visual style here? And how much do we want to wear one of those fancy motion capture suits? So, so much.

Tune in to hear our thoughts on Army of the Dead!
