| Total FilmRosie FletcherComic relief tinged with vigilante menace. |
| Projected FiguresAnton BitelMockumentary on the monstrousness of modern man. |
| Empire MagazineKim NewmanBlackly funny and surprisingly touching, this zombie mock-doc is far more inventive than it has any right to be. |
| Time OutTom HuddlestonThere are enough interesting ideas, memorable lines and inventive choices to make this is a notable entry into the overstuffed DIY horror canon. |
| ViewLondonJennifer TateBrilliantly funny with endearingly natural performances, which perfectly deliver the film's comic and deadpan dialogue. |
| User ReviewJ MHarold's Going Stiff is delightful. It has very little in common with other zombie comic-horror flicks. Yes, others of its ilk are funny, but this is very funny. Yes, other films involving the undead can be satirical, but this film is cleverer about its satire. The film lifts itself above its group in other ways too. Never in a zombie film have I seen the process of turning into a zombie tackled, I've also never seen such likable characters either; and I've never seen such naturalistic performances in other zombie films. Harold's Going Stiff is wonderfully original, extremely funny and very, very enjoyable. What a breath of fresh air! |

| User Reviewettore nI never thought i could cry for a zombie. A touching movie. well done. |
| User ReviewGeoff HOne of the most endearing zombie films you'll ever watch. :-) |
| User ReviewMartin RSaw this at Celluloid Screams 2011 where it won Audience award. A 'Zombie' plague hits penistone and hilarity ensues. Film also has a huge heart and the lead is the most loveable grandad zombie you'll ever see. |
