It benefits from its breakneck pace and intensity, and is just as much about character as it is bloodshed. La Horde (aka The Horde) was the first feature film from directors Yannick Dahan and Benjamin Rocher European cult horror auteur Xavier Gens was one of the producers.The French film "La Horde" doesn't exactly bring a fresh approach to the over saturated zombie genre, yet is still entertaining enough for what it is.
However, when the cops launch their vigilante raid, they met with a response they never anticipated - a pack of ravenous zombies has laid claim to the apartment block, and avenging their fallen partner takes a backseat to saving their own lives. Jimenez plans a raid on the Markudis' headquarters with the help of Aurore (Claude Perron), a female officer who'd had an affair with Rivoallan, and two other cops, Ouessem (Jean-Pierre Martins) and Tony (Antoine Oppenheim).
Rivoallan's wife is also convinced the Murkudis pulled the trigger, and so Jimenez brings together a handful of fellow cops to enact their own personal justice against the mobsters. Jimenez suspects that Rivoallan was murdered by a band of ruthless gangsters led by the Markudis Brothers, Adewale (Eriq Ebouaney) and Bola (Doudou Masta), who operate out of a decaying housing project on the outskirts of town. Franck Jimenez (Aurelien Recoing) is a Parisian police officer dealing with the death of his partner, Mathias Rivoallan. Police searching for some bloodthirsty criminals instead find themselves battling the walking dead in this action-packed horror vehicle from France.
