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. -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

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... -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

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. -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

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... -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

I was alone but I'm not easily scared.... though I am easily grossed out! 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. -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

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.
