After a meteor unleashes a virus that turns zoo animals into zombies, a mountain lion (David Harbour) and wolf (Gabbi Kosmidis) lead a team of surviving animals to stop the virus and rescue their zoo.

Critics Consensus

Night of the Zoopocalypse delightfully threads the needle as a child-friendly introduction to horror, delivering a gentle amount of good scares while dazzling the eye with its neon hues.

While Night of the Zoopocalypse is more of a labour of love than most of its rivals, it doesn’t have a great deal to offer adults who aren’t hardcore animation fans.

The mechanics of the chase scenes are well-designed, but the overall look of the film is lackluster, the characters are thinly imagined, and the dialogue is oddly obscure.

I suppose that any movie that acts as a pint-sized gateway to Barker should be applauded. But maybe make sure that your household’s night-lights are properly charged for a few evenings afterward.

Action and characters do skew towards basic but for a beginner horror its spooky moments fulfil the brief.

It’s little more than a desperation pick for parents, babysitters and misc. legal and temporary guardians to distract the young’uns for 90 minutes.

3.5/5

This is a very stylishly animated B horror movie that contains more than enough excitement to keep parents (and horror fans) entertained while balancing horror and silliness to thrill younger kids.

Great family horror film with a few twists and turns. It was also refreshing to have different voice actors.
