      Audience Member A low budget zombie comedy that is quite a bit of fun, dead heads sports everything that an unknown film needs. It has plenty of jokes and great actors of which have never been seen in anything before. A funny zom rom com that will definitely keep you amused. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Really terrible acting throughout but some very funny jokes. The line about the joint smoking zombie getting the munchies was superb! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member A pretty well made zombie/roadtrip comedy... Low budget effects but a good story and decent acting (for a silly comedy) lifts this movie beyond just OK. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A very brave attempt that mostly hits what it aims for. Sadly the plot aims rather low with a tired road trip/lost love story that makes little sense but is enough to move the story forwards. The big problem is in the supporting cast who just don't work and cant make anything special out of their oddball characters.. oh and some horrible green-screen early on which thankfully is soon dropped. Kinda fun in this age of genre deconstruction and fun for zombie fans but no-one else. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member zombies that like beer! sound like Wisconsin? LOL Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review jesse o Another movie with a poster promising something that never even came close to happening. The poster sees Brent holding a shotgun ready to shoot someone, yet Brent never holds a shotgun nor does he ever shoot anyone. Of course, seeing a zombie hold a shotgun is certainly more appealing, from a marketing perspective, than it is to tell the truth. Though I'm not sure who watches films because of their posters. With that said, this movie reminds of Unicorn City and A Little Bit Zombie in that while its technical and budgetary limitations may be very obvious, the film completely overcomes them with a solid script and a great cast. So yes, the movie looks very low-budget but that doesn't mean that this movie isn't a lot of fun, because it is. Basically, the film boils down to a road trip, zombie love story. I was also pleasantly surprised by how character-driven the whole film was. Of course, I'm not saying the characters are really that three-dimensional, but I grew to care for them and there are even some tender and genuinely touching moments in the film. The comedy isn't great, it's certainly funny enough to get by but I think the cast's enthusiasm certainly helped make up for some of the weaker moments in the film. My favorite character would have to be McDinkle and he's the angry asshole that spouts off cheesy one-liners. He certainly has the funniest lines of the film, and he was really entertaining in this role. But, as mentioned, the entire cast is great and incredibly enthusiastic which certainly adds to the enjoyment of the film. The script is also solid, it's clear that the Pierce Brothers are in touch with geek culture as there are many references to other films. Don't let the low-budget fool you, this film is a lot of fun and I think it's certainly an underrated film in the horror community. It's not the best horror film you'll ever see, but it is really entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
