The zombie birds were in the third one right? The fourth one had the split face things.

No problem Lash. Another fun romp through the undead. Some more cool shots and situations. Fun movie.

One thing I did find interesting is that as the nights passed and the zombie strippers were looking more and more like extras from the EVIL DEAD, the patrons were more into them than ever. Robert Englund's character called it a fad, I could almost see it happening.
Still, I would NOT recommend this for the zombie film elitists... but I thought it was okay, despite the low budget and goofiness.
It was a fun movie! Caught it on cable last week. It was funny how the strippers were such divas trying to get a leg up on each other by willingly becoming undead. I also loved the random socio-philosophical commentary from the strippers and how some guys were taken backstage to be zombie chow after the performances. Hilarious how the caged zombie guys weren't all that different from their pre-zombie selves.
Fun movie as long as you're looking for a campy romp. I mean, what else would someone expect from the title?

I LOVE Jenna Jameson. I have little interest in straight porn, but I always have to browse through the adult channels to look for her movies. She's a wonderful comedian who understands the power of camp. She makes me laugh.

DIARY OF THE DEAD, however, is worth a watch. It's a Romero, and was much better than Survival of the Dead.
Caught this one on cable as well. This one was serviceable and fairly entertaining. Parts of it struck me as pretty believable like the use of youTube and other modern tech to unfold the story. Not as sure about the storytelling device of the handheld videocam. The morality/detachment of the thing was a little overwrought. I can see it as the characters are film students, but the "what are you doing?!?" elements get brought up over and over, and we get beat over the head with it.
But some decent gore and some nice moments. But a puzzling loose end with one of the characters fleeing near the conclusion.
Not a great zom flick but a decent diversion if your expectations aren't too high.

FINALLY a new zombie/rage virus movie hit NETFLIX.
While the original QUARANTINE did offer a few frights, in my opinion its sequel was MUCH BETTER.
For one thing, the first flick was almost visually inaccessible between an hour of scenes that were extremely poorly lit, or lit only by the light of a camera... PLUS that effing ANNOYING as hell SHAKY CAMERA SYNDROME (damn you, Blair WItch Project, for bringing THAT into popular culture).
This film has NONE of those problems... it's well-lit, there is NO shaky camera at ALL, and overall it was a nail-biter, being that it begins on an airplane (which scares the crap outta me anyway).
Also, the first film takes FAR too long to get into the action... that isn't a problem here, we get some crazy infected action pretty early on.
Also nice: it ties into and ties up a major loose end from the first QUARANTINE.
So, while it isn't anything super-special, QUARANTINE 2 is def. worth a view for non-elitist fans of the zombie/rage virus genre.
