Zombieworld

Do not listen to the glowing five+ star reviews. This is extremely stupid and unfunny. It's some kind of idiotic anthology comedy. The best thing to come out of this was someone making a side scrolling beat 'em up out of the Jesus bit. The zombie makeup was atrocious z it looked like burnt eggs. Note to would be film makers. If you are trying to make a comedy it is best to make sure it is actually funny. If you can't make good jokes and sketches do not bother trying. It just makes a bad movie even worse and extremely painful to watch......

The wannabe Shaun of the dead sketch is the worst........

Seriously you have to see this film, especially the "Fist of Jesus" , there are some effects that I haven't even seen in any modern zombie films like the half head with the eyes moving and the hilarious use of fish to kill zombies with the piranha getting the biggest laugh!

It is quite sacrilegious and I can see how some Christians would most definitely be offended by it but just take it in fun and you will enjoy it! Would have been nice if they could have added a mohammed sketch but I guess that will never happen.

The segment set on the beach has to be seen to be believed - once again there are some gut wrenching effects that are simply hilarious like the football head and most of the effects are quite simply amazing for such a low budget - i would say that some of them even beat z-nation and many other high end zombie films - simply superb!

Contrary to some reviews I found the inter-segment "how to survive a zombie apocalypse" skits quite amusing - I think the stabbing a zombie in the back of the head with a bicycle seat raised the biggest laugh - very unorthodox but effective! lol I have actually learned some very effective zombie survival secrets now for when the impending zombie apocalypse does happen so the movie is practical as well as funny! >;o)

Most of the movie is stitched together shorts - some good, some bad. Yeah its low budget, yeah its full of mistakes but yeah it is actually quite funny if you aren't an anal film reviewer with no sense of humour. Just open a beer , lie back and laugh (or not).

My quick rating - 5,2/10. For some reason this is getting ripped. The movie itself is a group of shorts tied together by a newscast that is taking place after the zombie apocalypse has arrived. Tough to review without breaking each segment down, but I'll make that easy. Two of them stand out by far. The Jesus zombie hunter segment at the beginning and the very much inspired fun at the beach segment at the end. The Jesus segment, along with quite a few others is strictly based upon humor often mocking fans of traditional zombie flicks. That is not to say that the idea of Jesus giving life to the dead isn't a funny way of looking at the beginning of zombies in general. I am also sure that many Christians were up in arms about this segment. The second segment is the "Dead Alive" homage, the last segment fun at the beach (I am making these names up). This gorefest of 10-15 minutes takes every page out of the classic Dead Alive and displays it to the letter. Right down to the laugh from the skull that ends p through a zombies head that is a direct sample of the laugh from the mutant zombie infant from Dead Alive. Great stuff. The rest of the movie is mere filler with some inside jokes and jabs at how stupid the characters act in zombie flicks with an instructional video or two for some assistance. Overall a fun flick that deserves more credit then it is getting.

Although it includes some little humor, the quality of this film is far below its sequel, and it is true in all respects.

I knew about this 2015 movie titled "Zombieworld", but I just never had the opportunity to watch it before now in 2023. And given my love and admiration for all things zombie, of course I had to sit down and watch this one.

Well, I hadn't been missing out on a milestone in zombie cinema here, because this was essentially just an anthology of random stories set during a zombie outbreak. And it wasn't exactly anything overly thrilling or exciting that the writers had managed to churn out for the anthology. Sure, it was somewhat watchable, given the fact that it was a zombie anthology, but don't get your hopes up.

I managed to sit through all 71 minutes of "Zombieworld", but I was not overly entertained. And being a zombie fan, this movie hardly tickled me in any of the right places. This is not something I would recommend for zombie fans to rush out and get to watch. Take heed of the low rating that "Zombieworld" has managed to score, there is a reason for that.

The only familiar face on the cast list was Bill Oberst Jr. Not that the acting performances in "Zombieworld" were outstanding or particularly memorable.

Visually then "Zombieworld" was okay. It wasn't top notch and top of the line special effects and zombie make-up, nor was it among the worst of low budget rubbish that I have seen. And truth be told, the effects definitely helped to keep "Zombieworld" afloat.

Watchable for what it was, "Zombieworld" is not something I will return to watch a second time.

My rating of "Zombieworld" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.
