Lily James and Sam Riley star in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies as Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies entertaining, but for all the wrong reasons

Seth Ritchie, contributing writer February 11, 2016

While the premise has potential, the film suffers from an extremely weak script and little to no unique flair to keep the viewer interested.
