"It is a musical, but the storyline is definitely different from anything they’ve done. Also, there’s an underlying message in the movie. I feel like in High School Musical and the other movies, there’s a message, but it’s not as noticeable as the one in Zombies. The overarching message is accepting others for who they are, based on who they are and not what they look like. And accepting yourself, like what makes you unique is what you should embrace.
