FEMALE MERCENARIES ON ZOMBIE ISLAND is a kitchen sink type of movie that combines elements from large swath of genre films: mad scientists, cannibals, zombies, women in peril, women in prison, and post-apocalypse. This might sound like some of kind zany, cult hit that is just waiting to be discovered by the masses by alas it is not. Almost nothing works in this movie and that is in reference to more then the film's borrowed genre elements. Music, cinematography, acting, writing, costumes, sets, and even the sets all fail to be effective. This goes beyond the type of zero budget, trash film making that attract some to terrible movies as this feels almost lifeless. Perhaps its the utterly lazy camera work, the uninspired music, or the forgettable acting but nothing about this film speaks to the passion of the artists. Which really begs the question of why it was made as I doubt the motivation to do so was financial. To say its low budget would be a vast understatement. This looks and feels like it was shot over a weekend by a bunch of volunteers. Oh and any comparisons to the trash classic ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST (1980) is without merit. Other then a few cannibals and the mad scientist plot point the two films share nothing in common.
Avoid at all costs.

This film is what happens when a drunk guy finds a video camera at a garage sell for $10 and calls himself a director, under the guise of tricking women in to getting naked. Apparently he then hires his mates and any half pretty woman zero acting talent to perform poorly shot and poorly written scenes and these lies were cut together in to this film. Please please don't waste your time. Some of the premiss could have been good in the right hands with a budget greater than a pack of beer. The opening scenes smells of a low rate collage film project crossed "I just met this chick in a bar who said she'd do it for 60 bucks!".
