Zombie Town

Great title, OK zombie flick.Two brothers run afoul of the hungry undead while on a tow truck run. Parasites are the cause of these zombies, much like in NIGHT OF THE CREEPS. Decent action, creepy zombie makeup and some gore although it could have been a lot worse in that last department. Without checking, I am guessing this was a first effort by those involved, possibly spun off of a student film. The young age of most of the actors and their unpolished performances, to put it mildly, point in this direction. There is a sequence near the end that put me in mind of both NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and RESIDENT EVIL, and is just as suspenseful. Try it, you may like it.

I just saw this one last night and prepared me for the worst before crankin' on the 'ol DVD-player. Actually this is not bad, not bad at all in fact. Yes it surely belong in the low budget layer but despite a few shortcomings in different areas it comes out on top.

So let's see...the quality of the image is clearly camcorder like(but could be far worse), a little stiff acting here and there, a few plot holes and various other small things work against it but fortunately doesn't manage to drag it down to the bottom. It appears that the actors and production crew has really tried to do their best despite lack of experience in certain areas. It feels very sincere, me thinks.

This movie is clearly inspired by a few other "classics" like "Night of the creeps"(The leeches), George Romero's Zombie movies(namely Tom Savini's elastic flesh ripping) but i would really say that overall this movie reminds me more of the style of "28 Days later" than some of the old Zombie classics.

All in all we get a nice package with lots of pretty well executed gore, some nudity, a love story, some stupid and/or illogical decisions by our heroes and a few funny moments; both intentional and unintentional(How about the sheriffs toilet visit, great!).

So if you're going to watch this little movie don't expect award winning material here, just take it for what it is and you'll have a good time.

I can tell you this, these guys and gals has made a far superior movie than our notorious friend Uwe boll did when doing "House of the dead" and this team made it with far less a budget than Mr Boll. Clearly you have to have talent to make a movie not just money.

I tip my hat for the team behind "Zombie town" for making a good solid "Zombie" film which should please most other fans of this genre. I hope to see more from them.

I just rented this the other day on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. Plotwise it's pretty standard issue. Small, isolated town. Small group of survivors. Zombie hordes eating them one by one. You know how it goes. What separates this from some of the other zombie movies I've seen, however, is that the filmmakers seem to have a pretty good sense of humor about what they're doing. The characters are pretty funny (particulaly Randy) and some of the scenarios are definitely done tongue and cheek. I wouldn't say it's quite as over the top as Brain Dead, but it's in that vein. All in all, there are some good jokes, some solid gore, and some pretty ambitious action sequences towards the end. Perhaps a little slow getting started, but once it did I liked it a lot.

7.5 stars out of 10.

Wow...OK. So, after reading the little feud on here, I decided I had to see this movie for myself. This movie is HORRIBLE. I stopped watching it. I strongly recommend cleaning a closet instead of watching this movie, you'll be more spooked/entertained.

It's low budget with bad acting.

Whoever is giving this "movie" (because this is totally garbage) 10s is completely incorrect and should be disregarded.

I am in no way connected to any of the other reviewers.

Simply put, this garbage is not worth watching.

Very, very, very, very BAD "MOVIE".

There's no messing about in this modestly-budgeted zombie extravaganza - only minutes in, and there's enough blood and gore to keep everyone happy; apart, that is, from the victims of this unspecified outbreak.

This is a lot of fun. The characters are lively and likeable and although this certainly isn't a comedy, there are moments of humour that engages throughout. As a result, we are never given the impression we are to take things too seriously, even during some pretty nasty, well realised set pieces.

The isolated town could have been plucked from 'The Blair Witch Project', which gives it an autumnal atmosphere. Adam Hose, Brynn Lucas, Phil Burke and Dennis Lemoine do well in the main roles, but the real star is the story which retains a tongue-in-cheek quality throughout and delivers some moments that are difficult to forget.

It would be very difficult not to have fun with this. My score is 6 out of 10.
