Night of Something Strange

I was amazed by how the people driving vehicles got from afternoon to after dark, but not out of the town where the people with the virus were. The gasoline/ food store was a major infection center, where the local people infected could walk to the motel, that took people hours to drive to. From afternoon to after dark. Those are extremely fast zombies, when they are not shuffling around. The virus is extremely fast acting also. Very little growth time. It varies a lot. Sometimes it's, give me a second and I'll be right on that. Other times, it's a long slow car ride from afternoon to night. This review was 2 characters too short. BTW The teacher was a famous Scream Queen.

I will waste not one more word then necessary on this piece of crap film.

My summary essentially sums up the movie as a whole....

It's so blatantly obvious the morons who have given this film a 3 or above, let alone 9 and 10 out of 10 ratings are directly connected to the making of this film, are related to the film maker (who I won't bother to mention as the person deserves less then the credit of even mentioning their name) or are paid to rate the film. IMDb is an awesome tool to gauge the quality (or lack thereof), temperature, style and merits of any film in its vast data base, but, IMO, must weed out those who clearly are on the proverbial "payroll" of all involved by positive ratings for their own agenda.

Of the many film Genra's I enjoy, Horror is among the top three and I am not adverse to films considered to be "out there" or even devoid of a solid plot. That said, this waste of time film is nothing less then putrid. In every way imaginable. Even for its "shock value" scenes which are so terribly acted, filmed, directed and set to music fit for "C" level films, it's up there among one of the top three worst movies I've ever seen. And I've seen 1000+ films over the past 35 years.

Please IMDb, figure out a way to vet your user reviews as to not waste people's money or more importantly, time, as a potential viewer relies on the user reviews more so then professional critics. I believe the public tends to be much more fair and honest when reviewing a film. We have no agenda, nothing to gain by writing a review other then to help others in deciding whether or not to view a film by Championing said film or Dead-Panning it.

As for me, and I have reviewed many films on this site as well as have much experience in film viewing, if I could give this film a -10, I would.

Horror fans, run for your lives! Or, at least away from your TV screen.

It was the movie's cover/poster that initially caught my attention, and it looked very much like a 1980's horror movie. I read the synopsis and then decided to sit down and watch "Night of Something Strange".

And let me just be the first to say that "Night of Something Strange" turned out to be something rather different than what I had expected. So for better or worse? Well, honestly, it was for the latter.

The storyline in "Night of Something Strange" turned out to be rather ridiculous, and it was really difficult to get into the groove of the movie and get immersed into the storyline.

The acting in the movie was actually quite adequate, taking into consideration the budget of the movie and the type of movie that it is. So the acting talents actually did good jobs with the limitations imposed on them.

"Night of Something Strange" certainly had some fun enough moments, but they were outweighed by the inadequacies and lacks that the movie was weighed down by. As such, it wasn't a very memorable or enjoyable movie. And it was quite difficult to take anything in the movie serious.

The special effects in the movie were as to be expected from a movie of this caliber. So don't get your hopes up.

Normally I am a big zombie aficionado, but "Night of Something Strange" just was way too far out there, even for my liking.

My rating of "Night of Something Strange" lands on a less than mediocre 4 out of 10 stars.

Ironically those who hate this, I bet loved. Sharknado. Don't listen to the 1-4 stars. I rate pretty hard but unbiased. For the $ they spent, it's worth a watch if you are waiting in line at the DMV. Might want to have ear buds in. Unless you want those in line to wonder why you're watching an STD Zombie raping girls or guys.

This is no Oscar award for acting. (Then who cares about the Oscars anymore really.) The movie doesn't take itself too seriously. I wouldn't say it has "Jump Scares" It's more a Gore fest.

This like The Sadness, is another Zombie movie inspired by the comic book: Crossed. If you only have time for one of the two, watch The Sadness. I'd rate this a four, but they did put in some effort, and at least brought some newish ideas to the Genre.

I think the movie is exactly what it set out to be: a completely over the top gory comedy, a zombie movie inspired by the likes of Army of Darkness and Cooties and Braindead and Zombeavers. I mean, it starts with a necrophiliac who gets infected from a corpse and proceeds to turn and rape his mother. It only gets more disgusting from there.

Overall it was fun, but you've got to be in the mood. It's not for everybody and if you think your girlfriend could watch this with you, you are probably wrong. It's nothing really special, but it was original and fresh.
