Featured review
Arriving at a local radio station, a radio show host decides to recount a story about how a zombie apocalypse was averted when the creatures appeared from the depths of Hell to overthrow the planet and how they relied on a pair of corrupt cops and several other survivors to stop them.
This was a wholly cheesy low-budget genre effort. One of the finer features of this one is the way the endless array of seemingly unrelated skits slowly form a coherent storyline about the zombies arriving and taking over. As the interactions of the corrupt officers going through the neighborhood, the zombies appearing at the school, and the various neighbors who seem to interact either with more zombies or each other before it becomes obvious these seemingly random skits form a story about the creatures coming to take over the world. These confrontations provide a generally fun series of cheesy, low-budget-fueled schlocky zombie encounters featuring flimsy gore and outright silly concepts that substitute common sense and logic for energy and enthusiasm that builds throughout here into an original take on the zombie curse affecting everyone which is all decent enough to give this some enjoyable elements. All that aside, there are some issues with this one. The biggest one is the seemingly obvious low budget where just about everything from the production value, the guerilla shooting locations, and the effects on display all scream cheap, low-budget cheese. It all borders on being intolerable due to the type of presentation it provides, especially for those who don't enjoy this kind of genre fare. As well, there's also the big issue with the film in that the randomized nature of the structure prevents the film from making sense, as the general approach only comes about later on since the internal logic of so many scenes is maddeningly frustrating. Characters become zombies seemingly for no reason, the way they behave is immensely inconsistent, and everything has the kind of improv type of performance so it all comes off even cheaper and cheesier than anything else. It all comes together to lower this one overall.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Full Nudity.
