ZOMBIES ANONYMOUS: Very low-budget but not BAD low-budget... it actually has great themes that deserve big-budget treatment...

In this movie, once the zombie plague or whatever happens, when you die you come back... not as a monster but as pretty much yourself... only dead. Awesome prejudice themes and ideas presented here... I'm kinda impressed so far.

30 minutes in... it just keeps getting better... ZOMBIES ANONYMOUS might become my favorite zombie flick yet... let's see how this plays out...

Please let me know how you like UNDEAD.

Meanwhile, Zombies Anonymous has taken the pratfall of many low-budget movies... it's taken a great premise no one has thought of before, gone about an hour riding that premise to near-indie-flick-nirvana...

then taken a wrong turn into total ridonkulousness.

Gotta see it through though...

Final Verdict: Despite some overacting and some amatuer acting and a detour into ridonkulousness, ZOMBIES ANONYMOUS does deserve a view from any fan of the zombie genre looking for something different.

turned off undead after about 30 minutes. i'm not sure if it's supposed to be funny.

it's like a really scary movie with a 1950s bugs bunny score to it.

utter failure.

Thanks for the heads-up, Peebs...

Matt, I am watching DEADGIRL now... (took a break to post for a minute)... first impression: JT and Rickey are hot teenage sex.

JT is trying to convince Rickey to return with him... something's about to hit the fan I believe...

I was alone but I'm not easily scared.... though I am easily grossed out! [Smile]

re: DEADGIRL, I'd say give it a watch... but be prepared for ANYthing. And absolutely under no circumstances would I ever let anyone under 18 see it.

wow
Deadgirl, i saw the box but i dont think i ever picked it up and read the back, thanks for the heads up.
For me, Undead sucked, its talked about in horror forums for years but i couldnt get through it.
There is a zombie i may or maynot have mentioned, Day X, dont worry it sucked beyond belief and especially the ending.
