Bonin and his friend Vézina patrol with shotguns, shooting the infected while amusing each other with doctor jokes.

Bonin meets Tania, a young woman with a bite mark, who swears she was bitten by a dog and not an infected.

[8][9] Netflix acquired the film and released it on 2 March 2018 outside Canada, Latin America and Eastern Europe.

[11] For The Montreal Gazette, T'cha Dunlevy praised the film as a successful reinvention of the zombie genre, and "At once wildly funny, philosophical, scary as heck when it has to be and boldly cinematic throughout".

They become an invading threat to the culture of Quebec, tied into the Battle of the Plains of Abraham and the contemporary debate over the niqab, including Bill 62, Everett-Green wrote.

[6] Chantal Guy awarded Ravenous four stars in La Presse, and argued it featured themes of survival found in previous zombie cinema such as Night of the Living Dead, adding commentary about social identity and how society is already being "zombified".
