Zombie Bloodbath 2

Finding this one was not as easy as I hoped it would be, but I did track it down and threw it into the VCR, ready for some splatter. And the coolest thing about it is I was not disappointed. It seems that some newer zombie films have not been doing the blood and guts thing very well. This one does. It was a but confusing at first, trying to figure out what was going on and why. But when the middle hits and the characters all come together, the loose ends are tied up and things made sense pretty well. It had zombies and killers and convicts and a reanimated scarecrow.

Now is the movie any good? It was well made, I think. Artistic even. care was taken and it shows. The people who made this film worked hard and it shows. The acting has improved, the effects and editing have all improved. But most of all. I was never bored. I was entertained. I had a lot of fun. And isn't that all we really should ask from a movie with such a low budget?

OK, I have read a couple of really foul, mean spirited reviews for this little movie that make no sense. First of all, you should not use this place as a forum to ATTACK a person for no good reason. It's a MOVIE. No one forced you to watch it. Some people are just here to be jerks. But there are rules and maybe the IMDb should watch some of these things closer. I have seen MUCH worse than this film. But not many zero budget ones are better. And just because you don't like the work of a director does not give a person the right to assault them verbally. Todd Sheets makes low budget Horror flicks. His body of work speaks volumes to his dedication to Horror movies and the progress as an artist from one to the next is on the screen. Where it counts.

Alright, so I really didn't like the original Zombie Bloodbath. This sequel is still bad, but an improvement over the original. This film had more originality. It had some different kills, but still mostly more of the same, but at least you got to know some of the characters a little. Apparently, this movie has a point to it, and some social commentary I didn't catch, since it was basically poorly done. I give Todd Sheets credit for trying, but overall he failed to deliver the point of his film too well. I noticed one of the guys from the first one played one of the bad guys, kind of funny to see one of the original characters return in this movie, and see him die exactly the same way he died in the original...screaming exactly the same way...trying to be someone totally different. That was funny to me, and the fact that he had what looked like a cheap dollar store gun in his hand. Ahhh the fun this movie is, but the pain it caused. I figure if ZOmbie Bloodbath was terrible, and this was bad, maybe the 3rd will be decent?

This movie was really strange. I'm not sure what the beginning had to do with anything. When the zombies come the cause seems to be from some random event, but it isn't explained very well at all. I wouldn't even say this is a low budget film...this was a no budget film. The escapes were absurd...many times consisting of just running thru the zombies with no plan at all. And how the zombies were defeated in the end was absolutely ridiculous. But considering how little they had to work with, some of the makeup and effects were pretty good. And there were a few funny parts. The director might be able to make a good movie if he had a budget, but I suppose it could be worse. The acting was pretty bad too, but I'm pretty sure these were not real actors...so all in all check it out if u love zombie films...not much new has been added to the genre here except for the way they were disposed of i suppose.

Jerry Angell, owner of zombie-horror's finest mullet, returns for more undead action in the sequel to director Todd Sheets' atrocious home-made gore-fest Zombie Bloodbath. This time around, Jerry plays a sleazy low-life thug who, along with his equally despicable partner-in-crime, some escaped convicts, several teenagers, and a bunch of screaming girls, comes face-to-face with a horde of shambling, flesh-eating corpses.

Obviously having learnt zilch about improving his craft in the two years since Zombie Bloodbath, Sheets delivers another shoddy mess of a film that somehow manages to be even worse than the original—a feat that I thought was almost impossible to achieve. The acting is uniformly lousy, the effects amateurish and cheap (most of the gore appears to be nothing more than a selection of offcuts, offal and blood from the local butcher's shop), the story incomprehensible (as far as I could fathom, the zombies rise from the dead because a scarecrow commands them to!!!), and the direction frustratingly laden with cheap looking video effects and completely meaningless cuts to black-and-white.

And as if that wasn't enough to convince you of this film's complete lack of redeeming features, the simply mind-bogglingly moronic ending should do the trick: the few remaining survivors stumble upon an abandoned truck that conveniently happens to have a stash of flesh-eating bacteria laying on its passenger seat—just the thing for dissolving the undead (but, strangely enough, not at all detrimental to the living).

A group of teens have their car break down in the middle of nowhere. They seek shelter in a farmhouse. But three murderous convicts are there killing the owner of said farmhouse and his family. One of them accidentally brings zombies around by knocking over a scarecrow. Cue blood, gore, carnage, bad acting. Better than the first but only by default. I still wouldn't wish it on my arch-enemy, bob. In the end the filmmaker wants it to be a parable about how we us Americans are killing ourself and our forests (huh? OK, whatever buddy) Dude I'd rather chop down forests then have my braincells diminish and my Grey matter leak out of my ears. In other words become a simple-minded idiot Liberal.

My Grade: D-
