Zombie Hunter

There was a time not so long ago when the independent flicks ruled the horror business but that's over. Nowadays independents aren't delivering the goods, there's nothing to spot and most of them are utterly boring. For some reason, money I guess, famous names are but on the bills to attract the fans. Here we do have Danny Trejo as Jesus but he's in it for just a few moments.

This flick is full of stereotypes like the macho killer, the smart girl, the nerd, and of course the sexy chick. Here we have problem one. The so-called sexy chick do walk around scantily clad but when she's given her pole dancing she stays dressed. O sure, she shows them titties but off-camera. Big mistake. But not only that, the zombies faces are really well-done but that's it, it's only their faces that are zombie looking. The clothes they walk around aren't what they should be. And then we come to the effects used. I don't have any problem with blood flying against the lens of a camera but here we always have that effect and the blood has some purple colour. What the hell.

One of those flicks were you take your remote and wanted to push the fast forward or even the eject button. And for Danny, hey man, you're going for the money or what, Rise Of The Zombies (2012) was another disaster. And if you have a close look here at Zombie Hunter you can see posters for Ozombie and Orcs, do I need to say more. A bit too much of talking and the same action (read effects) used.

Definitely a "B" movie, but pretty dang fun! Keep your expectations low (come on. Did you expect Shawshank?) and you'll have a good time with it. The main character is not played by Danny Trejo who is only in it in order to get people to watch it. The main guy does a good job as a hardened "Ash" ass-kicker kind of dude. Props to him. The action sequences are very stylized and different than most zombie flicks out there.

Plot? If you're looking for plot, pick a different movie. If you're looking for some laughs and gore, you're gonna like this hunk of crap.

Give it a shot. It does not take itself seriously and there's lots of zombie-killing fun! Sure, it rips off Resident Evil, but... I. don't. care.

This movie is incredibly bad. Danny Trejo - which is probably the reason for most people to watch this flick - is only seen in three scenes and is just doing his usual job. Being the cool, archaic guy who is looking into the camera with a grim face. And this is the best part of the movie. All the other actors are just crap. Their roles are clichés as you would expect from a movie like this, but their acting is so bad, that you cannot even take those clichés seriously. The dialogs have been written by some computer software which tries to bring the most common lines of all scripts into some order. The main character plays like he had been undergoing a lobotomy. And still he needs crappy monologues with a cheesy voice to bring his point across. Then there is the very bad CGI of those special monsters, which just look like they had been animated in the 1990s. Even the Pixar table lamp looks more realistic than they do. It seems like the director/writer/producer has seen Planet Terror and thought "I can do this too!". Unfortunately they can't. And they should have never tried. I want those 90 minutes of my life back!

This movie is not for everyone i gotta say. But for a B movie it is on the top of it's game. The corny characters,Catchphrases and bad effects are great in my point of view. If you are going in with the idea of watching a 'good' movie you're wrong. The first scene already tells you what kind of film you're watching and when you are spoiled with Hollywood blockbusters and aren't familiar with this style of movie i agree you wouldn't like it. But if you can look past the special effects etcetera and appreciate the film for what it really is your gonna have a blast.

(you gotta be at least 18 to get the greatness of it).

There are two kinds of really, really bad zombie movies:

Those with NO Danny Trejo... And those with ¡SI, MUY! Danny Trejo.

Or as much Danny Trejo as the "producer/writer/director" could afford to hire, which seems to be roughly a half-day's worth in this case.

Too inadvertently cheesy to qualify as the worst ever in its sub-genre, this grind house wannabe also boasts: absolutely no acting or directorial values; an unedited, witlessly amateurish imitation Frank Miller tough guy script; lots of gore, black gore, maroon gore, fuchsia gore, lavender gore, green gore, ecru gore; a gratuitous chain-sawing wielding maniac clown; never-explained CGI mutant space monsters; a single set of all-purpose fake intestines which are repeatedly pulled from various dead extras; characters who keep forgetting they're in the zombie apocalypse; a running visual gag involving masturbation; a geezer who repeatedly declares "I'm getting too old for this sh*t"; and a second-lead actress whose IMDb biog notes that she used to model for Japanese girlie mags and now sells lingerie at strip clubs in Utah.

In sum: grade Z camp fare; awful, but minimally fun. Eh...sometimes you're in the mood for a really bad zombie movie. It may as well feature Danny Trejo.
