An old man wanders a zombie infested city in search of a way out. Can he manage to escape being bitten by one of the worm infested living dead or will he join the mindless hordes who roam the City of Rott? A hilarious animated zombie fest full of heart pounding action and generous servings of blood and gore. Fred, an old man losing his mind in the worst place on earth, sets out on his brainless quest with the aid of his talking, Zombie-bashing Walker, to find a new pair of shoes in the hope of soothing his aching feet. Before long, Fred is surrounded by thousands of rotting Zombies, driven to feed the parasitic worms residing in their decaying brains. Fred struggles to fend off the Zombie onslaught by any means necessary. Usually with a good smash to the brains via his trusty Walker. As one of the first feature-length, Animated Zombie Gorefests, FSudol's "City of Rott" assaults Zombie Fans with countless Zombie shots-to-the-head, feasting, blood, guts and Zombie mayhem balanced with compelling, animated characters and a twisted storyline. Summary: All the World's water is infected with worms that turn people into zombies. This has been happening for a year or two. All water is infected including rain, river, filtered, All of it. An Old Man Named Fred goes through a city just to look for a pair of slippers(Loofers as he calls them) with perfect knowledge that this is happening.<br/><br/>The movie is well done. It's genius if anything. The movie is a non stop action film with an unrealistic number of zombies. The movie is insane, full of gore, and funny (in a sense). Although the movie is-in general- for zombie fans. I will agree with Evan Mugford; the walking through scenes are long and there are too many of them but the fighting scenes are to be admired. Over all I say to all the zombie fans of the world SEE THIS MOVIE! "City of Rott" is a very ambitious project, and it ultimately turned out to be quite alright in the end. For an animated movie of this type, "City of Rott" is rather entertaining.<br/><br/>We follow the old man Fred who is on the streets of the city looking for a pair of new shoes. Fred is not all by sound mind. And the city is filled with the walking dead, rotting corpses controlled by worms.<br/><br/>Now what made "City of Rott" work out well enough was the sheer amount of gore and mayhem. Sure, it is animated, but there was something oddly fulfilling by seeing Fred dispose of the zombies with his walker. And the sounds were good as well.<br/><br/>The story, well that was a bit under average, because it wasn't really all that believable. For two-thirds of the movie, the story does have coherency and it is semi-alright, but then at the last third of the movie, it starts to stagger and the story jumps around a lot, letting us follow different people that seemingly have very little to do with the main story. Time filler perhaps?<br/><br/>As for the animation itself, well the style used here is not what you'd otherwise see in Anime, cartoons from the 80's and 90's, but it is more in the likes of Flash animated movies as seen on the Internet. There is a lot of using the same figures over and over, but in overall, that was a minor flaw in the animated movie.<br/><br/>"City of Rott" is worth watching more than once, though years should pass in between the watchings.
