English If the creators had worked a bit harder on the make-up of the infected kids to make them look sicker and scarier, the film would have been more effective, but other than that, it’s the ideal horror comedy. Very competently shot with a good cast and a funny script. I wouldn’t mind a sequel with these characters. ()

English From the writers of the horror franchises Saw and Insidious and the television comedy hit Glee, Cooties is a horror comedy about an elementary school where children turn into bloodthirsty monsters and features a bunch of famous faces from popular films and TV series. Unfortunately, the result of this seemingly ideal recipe for a perfect movie is a mediocre and paradoxically unoriginal product. Every minute of the movie is marked by a conspicuous construct and an attempt at would-be non-conformity, as the teachers massacre the children, but everything is done at the level of maximum accessibility, predictability and tedium.

English This wasn’t even a B-movie but a C-movie with bad horror film clichés and cringe humor. I enjoyed all of it. I switched off most of my brain and enjoyed this weird mess from start to finish. I wish there were more unpretentious movies like this one. ()

English Cooties is simply a horror comedy with zombies the way I imagine it. Well, okay, maybe they're not exactly zombies, but just sick children, but that's perfectly fine. It suits the genre well and it's funny. It follows the rules and manages to be at least as original as possible. This is something I have to highlight at all costs, because there just aren't many good horror comedies. ()
