Nudist Colony of the Dead

Zombie nudists attack campers five years after the closure of the Sunny Buttocks nudist colony in various musical numbers.

One of the oddest films I've ever seen. There's barely any nudity in this movie. I bet it could get a PG 13 easily. And BTW, it's a MUSICAL.

I guess they wanted to do something like Rocky Horror n a budget. A real low budget.

It's really dumb and not very good, but oddly watchable. I'm surprised it doesnt have cult status.

I can't give it a high rating, but I can suggest you see it for yourself.

I'm....so torn about this movie. Just on the name alone, I knew I had to see it, but I can't honestly say that it was worth my time. On the other hand, I can tell my friends I've seen a movie that they constantly think I'm lying when I talk about it.

It's not good, not by a longshot, but it has a good-natured stupidness that keeps you watching long after you realize you should turn it off and go do something constructive--like write an IMDb review of it.

I can tell you some things I wasn't expecting: this movie being a musical, and the nudist zombies wearing a lot of clothes. I'm glad they did, though, since the Droopy old lady with the knockers down to her knees would've gotten old fast. The death scenes were so bizarre that they defy description, and by and large the most coherent comment I can form about this movie is "WTF?!" Should you see it? Umm.....depends on how much patience you have, or how much beer. There's nothing scary in this movie, and the gore is high school play worthy at best, but you will be stunned that a musical movie about undead nudists killing Christians was ever made, let alone that you're seeing it. It's for bragging rights only, I'd say, and unless you have a warped sense of humor you should avoid it. Even if you have a warped sense of humor, I think you're going to need some help getting through this, so bring some friends or some mind-altering substances.

This film has always stayed with me, but after having just seen the trailer (er... music video) at movieflix.com, I had to write about it.

I found this and thought it was gonna be an '90s soft-core musical, along the lines of "Beach Blanket Bango," "Cinderella" (1977) and "Cinderella 2000." While the three of those are also party movies, this one falls into another category entirely -- namely the Mark Pirro category. With insane films like "Curse of the Queerwolf," "Buford's Beach Bunnies," and the more mainstream "My Mom's a Werewolf" (which he scripted), Pirro has a style all his own. I'm sort of scared of the other trailer I just saw for his newest film, "Rectuma."

As was pointed out before, it's not gory enough to be horror; not "nudist" enough to be pornographic; not funny enough to be a true comedy. It's a film that was probably fun to make, and it was made to be made fun of. It's brash, offensive and politically incorrect (moreso than the hilariously offensive "Queerwolf")... and it's filled with bad dialog/acting, crazy HALF-naked zombies and songs that you can't get out of your head, no matter how hard you try.

It's not "Citizen Kane," but it is what it is -- and for what it is, I give it a 10. Grab some beer, pop some popcorn and invite all your friends to laugh and sing along with the zombies from the "Nudist Colony of the Dead!"

Quite probably the only nudist zombie musical in existence, Nudist Colony of the Dead is, as if you really need to be told, very dumb indeed. In addition to the absurd premise—vengeful nudist zombies rise from their graves to attack members of a religious summer camp—we get crazy characters, offbeat humour, hokey gore, a smidgen of gratuitous nudity (although not nearly as much as one might expect) and several impromptu song and dance routines.

Even though the film suffers from obvious budgetary and technical restraints, with a cast of enthusiastic but not particularly talented performers, it's hard not to admire writer/director Mark Pirro just a little for actually bringing his ridiculous and ambitious vision to the screen. The songs are cringe-worthy, the dancing is dreadful, and the gags aren't all that funny, but all involved throw themselves completely into the project, and their fun proves infectious, making the film a mindlessly enjoyable time waster for undiscerning fans of low-budget cult cinema.

First off, if you're looking for a lot of nudity, look elsewhere. Some of the women are topless, but that's it, and once they become zombies, they're all grey, and some of them have clothes on (go figure). But I enjoyed this movie; it doesn't take itself too seriously like a lot of other horror movies, so you don't have to sit there and roll your eyes at the amateur attempts to make you gasp in horror. I thought the songs were great (and a lot better than music in most horror movies), including the title theme, the rap (especially the old grandma doing the dance moves), the "I Don't Care" blues song they sing in the van, and "Inky Dinky Doo Dah Morning". The characters are well defined (the drunk girl, the Chinese guy with the accent, the Bible-quoting guy) and it's fun to see them interact with each other.

It's great if you're looking for obscure horror movies to watch and looking for a new one to watch and be entertained by. If that's you, it's a must-see.
