Reviews

Michael Masloh discussed the film extremely benevolently on his side:

“PARIS BY NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD really pulls out all the stops, there is a lot of splatter, absurd comedy, good stunts, fine action, an apocalyptic atmosphere and of course there is plenty of shooting. The short film almost seems like it is a "best of" a zombie strip "

Dennis Vetter also sympathetically reviewed the film in the culture magazine Ikonen :

“A film that is technically very successful despite its low budget, comes up with numerous weird ideas and is sure to find its audience. The DVD leaves nothing to be desired for fans in any case. "
