Zombie Ass

Wracked with guilt over the suicide of her bullied sister, young karate student Megumi accompanies four older friends on a trip into the woods: smart girl Aya, her druggie boyfriend, model Maki, and nerdy Naoi. Things start to go badly when Maki finds a parasitical worm inside a fish -- and wolfs it down, in the hope that it will keep her skinny.

If you liked the outhouse scenes in "Dead Snow", you will love "Zombie Ass" -- because there is fecal matter everywhere, flatulence used as jet propulsion, gratuitous butt crack... this is the sort of silly awesomeness that only Japan can bring.

We get this gem from director Noboru Iguchi, best known for "The Machine Girl". If you liked "Machine Girl", you will probably like this one, too. I mean, geez, it is zombies and poop... and then it gets weird.

You should expect it, right? A movie with a title like that (internationally: Zombie *ss) should be below the belt ... backside-wise. But shouldn't it still be sort of funny? Of course if you set your bar low, you might be able to laugh at quite a few of the jokes I reckon, but judging from the overall rating, I guess not many could oversee the flaws this had/has.

It's a shame, because movies with a punch line can be a lot of fun. Snakes on a plane, Alien vs. Ninjas and other movies have proved that to a better effect. Talking about effects, the ones shown here are decent enough for the small budget this movie has. Performances (if you can call them that) are borderline silly and closer to annoying, but might feel entertaining for some.

What did anyone expect with this title and director? I get it if you knew what you were getting into and still didn't think it was funny. But some of the reviews saying gross, disgusting, blah blah. Well yeah that is the point.

I was with a bunch of friends scanning Netflix and they quickly passed it by and I yelled STOP! We must watch this just based off the title alone and it didn't disappoint. There was ass, zombies, toilets, dead people. Everything they promised in the title was there in abundance and it was good.

I never laughed so hard at something so ridiculous. It did have some boring spots I give you that, but overall it was hysterical just based on the premise of a girl who couldn't fart because she was ashamed of it. Shakespeare couldn't have come up with a better plot.

If you are with a bunch of friends looking for something crazy, stupid and funny and have had a few beers, definitely watch this.

There are weird Japanese movies...Than there is Noboru Iguchi movies. His movies seems to get more messed up with each installments. Movies like this show that just because a movie is weird and grotesque doesn't equal a cool or entertaining flick. Iguchi was a porn director before making these exploitation flicks and it really shows in this one. With constant fetishes from farting, pooping, things coming in and out of the anus, mouth and eye balls. Oh and tentacle rape. And also has crap covered zombies, high school girls that know karate, sexual harassment dudes, skanky girls, parasites, crazy scientist, and some psycho school girl. So yeah it combines messed up exploitation stuff in one movie. Yeah, it's messed up and gross but I didn't feel like I was amused or entertained or found anything that happen in this flick to be cool. Some audiences that are into these fetishes might like it though.

3.6/10

With such a title, no one expects great cinematic achievement, yet with similar story lines and themes as Prometheus with a trillionth of this budget, this parody will make you laugh much harder. The CGI is not as good, mostly, tongue-in-cheek, but just when you think things could not get more outrageous, the movie manages to top itself. Obviously, frequent use of asses sets it apart, but gross outs, goo, zombies, aliens, orifice penetration, the origin of man, creation, the meaning of life, betrayal, nerdy biologists, bizarre surgical procedures, self sacrifice, ass kicking, and survival feature prominently just as in the big budget film. Put yourself in the proper mood, and this movie will deliver.
