Zombie Bloodbath 2

As any sequel worth its salt should, Zombie Bloodbath 2 knocks things up a few notches. Longer runtime by 20 minutes, more plot and a considerable added dollop of human depravity to the mix, it all comes together to make for a solidly watchable rock bottom trash opus. Interestingly it seems to take place in a different continuum to the first film, making it less a sequel than a different vision. This time around the zombies have demonic inspiration, they rise as the result of blood spilled upon unholy ground. Three slimy escaped convicts hole up with various hostages in a farmhouse whilst at the same time two even slimier crooks terrorise the staff of an all night gas station, events build and build until both parties must face an onslaught of gut hungry zombies. Its a good decision to take the focus away from the zombies for a good portion of the films length, it means instead of repetitive intestine chewing from near the outset there's actually some vague sense of character and even suspense. Well actually there isn't much sense of character or suspense, but some of the events are surprising/interesting, the dialogue is often fun (read hysterical) and one or two actors really bring their A (read Z, but in the best possible way) game. The trumps are definitely awesomely mulleted Jerry Angel and Matthew Jason Walsh as the two truly nasty crims, all nervous energy, wild expressions and continual jabbering taunts, they give a great charge to their scenes. Harry Rose carries himself with a decent gruff authority as a US Marshall as well, while the rest of the cast do their best, all generally enthusiastic enough to please. The zombies in this one are pretty variable, at first they appear made up with even less care than the original but as the film goes on they do improve with some OK gory wounds. I wasn't too convinced by the first attacking wave being decked out in things like a UCLA hoodie or Lakers gear though, didn't really support the idea of their being menacing long undead fiends. Gore is about what one would expect, lots of entrails, lots of red gloop, a few shootings, stabbings etc and some entertaining spectacle in the finale (definitely one of the high points of the trilogy). It was spoilt at times by use of black and white, slow motion, out of focus shots and crudely edited Satanic imagery though, a no frills approach would have been much better. Pretty standard blaring generic death metal on the soundtrack, mediocre but bringing the right sort of mood. I can't exactly say that this is a good film on the whole, but its a good ride for what it is. If you like micro-budget, pretty much amateur splatter trash then its definitely worth a watch, if you don't its definitely one to avoid. 7/10 from me as I like this sort of thing

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.

The plot is erratic and convoluted but basically it starts with some bad guys terrorizing a family, then some devil worshippers show up and turn one bad guy into a scarecrow. Years later, the scarecrow is disturbed by escaped convicts who are in turn terrorizing a family and the scarecrow decides to open a can of whoop-@$$ on everyone by bringing the dead to life.

Just about everything about this movie is bad. The acting is atrocious, the character development is nil (I can't remember a single character's name), the zombie makeup is ridiculous (white facepaint with black eyes) but the basic storyline is interesting and everyone is obviously having a good time doing the movie and their effort makes the movie fun to watch.

Highly recommended for fans of zombie B movies.

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.

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-
