Cass develops feelings for Jake as they track the high schoolers.

Critical reception for Eat Brains Love has been positive and the movie holds a rating of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, based on six reviews.[3] Dread Central gave the film four stars, writing "It probably won’t win over viewers who are truly sick to death of zombie movies, but Eat, Brains, Love at least tries to stand out from the countless other zombie films released over the last few years, with a sly satirical edge thrown in for good measure. And we have to commend it for that."[4] SciFiNow was more critical, stating that "For the most part, though, Eat, Brains, Love offers goofy gags and adolescent antics whose strongly transgressive streak is only a horror-inflected hyperbole of what might be found in any teen flick."[5]
