The movie Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, starring Matt Smith, is now available to stream in the UK. It’s a fresh take on Jane Austen’s beloved novel Pride and Prejudice, with an unexpected and well-received sci-fi element.
This funny horror movie is set in 1800s England, where a strange disease is causing the dead to rise. Elizabeth Bennet, skilled in martial arts, is forced to join forces with the proud Mr. Darcy to fight off the terrifying zombies.
But will their personal differences get in the way of saving their country?

Originally released in 2016, this film is based on a humorous novel by Seth Grahame-Smith. You can now watch it on Prime Video in the UK if you have a subscription.
The movie Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features Lily James and Sam Riley as the main characters, with supporting roles played by Smith, Jack Huston, Bella Heathcote, Ellie Bamber, Millie Brady, Suki Waterhouse, Douglas Booth, Charles Dance, and Lena Headey.
The movie had a mixed response from critics after its release, earning a 47% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 193 reviews.
According to The Wrap, the biggest issue with the film is that the zombie storyline feels completely disconnected from the original story and characters of Austen’s novel, leading to parts that don’t really add up.
One IMDB reviewer called the idea behind the film “remarkably good,” and said it’s likely to appeal to viewers who enjoy both Jane Austen and zombie stories, especially if they’re open-minded and have a good imagination.
One fan complimented the actors, saying they were wonderfully surprised by how enjoyable and over-the-top the story was.
A zombie-themed Jane Austen movie isn’t going to appeal to everyone, but if you’re open to something different and appreciate good acting, humor, and romance, it could be a surprisingly enjoyable experience, according to one viewer.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is available to stream on Prime Video.
The latest issue of Living Legends, a vibrant 100-page tribute to Taylor Swift, is now available! You can purchase it at newsstands or online for only £8.99.
