Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for zombie fans and anyone who loves a world with magic in it. The undead are the backdrop; how people treat each other is the real story. Shelve it next to Re-Animator or Dust Bunny. Its magic has rules, and the story plays by them.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 1 hr 20 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.

An evil witch doctor terrorizes an innocent village. He has the ability to change into a goat, and calls up an army of zombies to destroy anyone who stands in his way. The good priest and his allies must try to stop him.
