My thoughts exactly. I'll need to see it for myself.

It was like one of those movies where they got a nice idea but couldn't able to executed & finished it well. After the 1st half it was like they just sadly ran out of idea & not sure how to proceed further or how to put an end to the story. At the end, it was even like an incomplete film and that was the major disappointment about Cooties.

That was quite a dull film, Michael! It wasn't horror (more of a sci-fi drama-thriller) & entirely bad but the plot better suited for a 30 minute TV episode.

That was my impression as well.

And it tried sooo hard to be funny, but... meh.

But most disappointed was I to discover this was just another zombie flick.

I just read the synopsis of Air... It sounds like a not so good Tank Girl but with air instead of water lol. I loved Tank Girl...

What disappointed me the most was all the wasted potential.
It looked good, cast did a good job, gore looked great, kid zombies were a nice change,...
With a solid script this could've been a small classic.

Nice and bloody horror comedy. Not great but kind of a fun watch.
Laughed out loud a couple of times.
