I just finished reading I Am A Hero, and I have to say that it made me feel really... dirty. Don't know how else to describe it. It makes all other zombie comics/movies seem really clinical by comparison. The zombies are not just rotting corpses, they are literal mockeries of humanity. They bend in unnatural ways, and try to cling into the most trite and boring aspects of their past lives. And the worst thing is when there are scenes of large crowds about to get infected. People keep doing their thing while someone next to them is getting bitten, and it takes a while before most people even realize what it going on.

Also, I don't get why we keep spoilering the zombie thing. It should be part of the selling point of the premise, not some kind of twist we have to keep secret for new readers.

Marsilla's reaction to all that gross poo poodelicious food they have to eat is the best part of that manga.

So, the Stockholm Film Festival is showing the movie adaption of I Am Hero tomorrow, I love the manga in the "this is far better than most other manga out there" sense, should I bother watching the movie? Anyone else watched it yet?
