Zena Dixon Real Queen of Horror It's funny and looks amazing for a low budget film. The special effects are pretty believable and very gross but it's hilarious! Rated: 3/5 Aug 30, 2018 Full Review Brian Holcomb CinemaBlend Outside of surface details involving flesh eating and body rot, these zombie stooges look more hung over than dead. This is really a sex comedy with a zombie theme. Rated: 2.5/5 May 5, 2008 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures As the flagship zom com film for the new age, Night of the Living Dorks is to geek love as "Animal House" was to frat boys. Rated: 3/5 Mar 22, 2007 Full Review David Cornelius eFilmCritic.com An obnoxious sex romp that knows just enough about the teen comedy genre to mimic it but not enough to make it worth revisiting, even with this zombie twist. Rated: 2/5 Mar 9, 2007 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...unable to elicit either scares or laughs from the viewer... Rated: 2/4 Feb 23, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

Wolfgang G Die Nacht der Lebenden Loser ist eine deutsche Teenie-Horrorkomödie von Matthias Dinter… Drei Teenager probieren ein Voodoo-Ritual aus und werden Zombies… Die Nacht der Lebenden Loser ist eine Parodie auf die Zombiefilme, und alles ist mit Witz und schwarzem Humor gewürzt… Eine beschwingte und flotte Komödie mit einigen Klischees, ein unterhaltsamer Film, mit lustigen Dialogen, albernen Situationen… Die drei Hauptdarsteller geben ein sehr gutes Bild ab, sie spielen ihre Charaktere umwerfend… Wer auf schwarzen Humor, Sarkasmus und Persiflage steht, wird diesen Film lieben… Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/12/23 Full Review justin t A lesser version of Idle Hands (1999) due to the pot references and a lesser version of Shaun of the Dead (2004) due to the zombie comedy. This would have been great if they were geeks or nerds but they were dorks and that was just annoying. There are plenty of stoner and drug references which could be a political stab against the brain-dead generation but I really doubt that. I didn't laugh very much and I found my attention slipping quite a lot. It was quite funny, quite entertaining, quite interesting and quite average on all levels. Good idea made without flair. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member best viewed in the original German, with subtitles as needed. great example of horror/comedy. be prepared, it is an indie film, so don't expect a Hollywood quality film, but it is fantastic nonetheless. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Take your brains out and a big fat laugh: this movie is epic. American Pie is like, slow and sluggish when compared to this. An epic comedy not for all the family. An underdog. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny as hell!! A all time favorite!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Take American Pie, throw in some zombies and pretty much you have this movie. It's an ZomCom that doesn't fail. I laughed more times then expected and despite the horrible make up job, just roll with it. It's a cheaply made, mature teen (sounds like an oxymoron but they are out there) movie that is enjoyable. The dub is kinda bad also but it is a German movie so, find the original with subtitles. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
