Ozone

The movie runs for an hour and twenty minutes and it does nothing except prove that even good movie ideas can be ruined if not handled well. The acting is piss poor and the " zombie -mutants " don't even raise a laugh. While it is true that lack of money can seriously cramp one's style the fact that this movie is bad is not related to low budget but rather to low standards. Haphazard story lines, cliched dialogues ,poor lighting, crude sfx and an unsurprising twist at the end make this movie a must for masochists and insomniacs.

This isn't a great movie, but it's also not really a terrible movie. I found it pretty enjoyable, to tell the truth. The effects are obviously cheap, but when you consider the budget these people were probably working with, I think the film came out rather well. The major players act better than most in low-budget horror films, and the storyline, for the most part, makes sense. A few seemingly pointless scenes are thrown in here and there, but overall it isn't too hard to follow. I liked the movie, and if you enjoy horror movies and can appreciate a fairly well-made low-budget film, Ozone is worth checking out.

While ambushing a drug-dealer, Detective Eddie Boone (James Black) is injected in a fight against the dealer with a new drug called Ozone, which transforms the users in powerful zombies. His partner and friend Mike Weitz (Tom Hoover) is kidnapped by a group of Ozone addicted. Eddie tries to find Mike in the streets, fighting against the zombies and having several hallucinations due to the effect drug in his blood. "Ozone" is a movie which must be analyzed in two aspects: the screenplay is great, having a very good story. However, the effects and locations are among the worsts I have seen, being sometimes (or most of the times) ridiculous, like, for example, when the head of a police officer is smashed by a car in an empty parking area. In the balance, the average is positive and fans of trash movie will not be disappointed with this film. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Ozone"

My mom and I were looking at 1990's horror movies, and I said this title as I was reading through, and my mom said, "wait, 'Ozone'? My dad worked on that movie!", and now I'm here.

He was the pyrotechnics guy, and he did some special affects makeup too! I haven't gotten around to seeing the movies he's worked on yet, but hopefully I will (even if they end up being bad😂).

This came at the end of a long weekend spent watching really bad films. Don't think for a second that adds to its credit, though. I can't list everything I hated about this movie because a) it would take too long and b) I'm sure it killed a few of my brain cells, and my mind is blocking some of my memories out of self-defense. This movie contains: terrible acting, a horrible screenplay, lousy camera-work, way too much red lighting, occasionally no light at all, really bad makeup, plot hole upon plot hole upon plot hole, the least effective villain ever, a mind-numbingly bad soundtrack, and THE strangest sex scene I have ever encountered in my life. The director admitted in the commentary that he gets teased a lot for the "parking lot of death" scene, and I would say "teasing" is a generous word. I would like to throw feces at the man responsible for that scene. Also, when we got this movie it was listed as "Street Zombies", not "Ozone". It's a fair indicator of a bad film when there's more than one title involved-- alas, we had no warning. Here's what I can say to this film's credit: watch it with a bunch of friends and you just may get some good laughs out of the schlocky awfulness. In a scene in a bar involving zombified patrons, the director mentions that he'd been buying all the extras beer and they were all rip-roaringly drunk by the time filming was through. Watching this movie, I really, really, really wish I had been, too.
