Hide and Creep

For the horror fans in the crowd, even the fringe fans, this is an enjoyable movie. Sure, it's low budget, it pays homage to other B-movies and the acting isn't going to win any Oscars. For all that, it does a decent job of entertaining with the premise of rednecks battling zombies.

There isn't a lot of sleaze; only one scene with minor nudity, nor does the gore go over the top, so it isn't a schlockfest. The characters seem to be enjoying their roles, the dialogue was semi-witty, the production values better than many movies in the genre. It looks like a movie that was fun to work on.

Good enough for zombie fans? Yes, indeed, the zombies are quite acceptable in this movie and act according to the standard model of zombie behavior. They lurch, drool, bite and bleed like zombies should.

This is a beer and chips movie, without doubt. Enjoy it with your friends and some snacks. Break out the stash first and you'll be rating it up there with The Godfather.

Very rarely do ordinary and regular people who love movies get to actually make them. Imagine that for just a moment - what would you do if you were told you got to do the one thing you've loved since you were a child and share that with the world? That's how I would describe this film, a labor of child-like love. Does money matter when you're doing what you love? No. Because it's all about the heart. And this film's heart is bigger than any blockbuster on the market. That counts for something. I don't want to be elitist and say that if you don't like this film then you just don't get it, because honestly that's too easy. I'll say instead that if you don't like this film, then you simply haven't seen enough movies. Enough to know the difference between a movie made for profit versus a movie made for sheer love and devotion for the medium; for the idea and for the experience. Those movies are not for everyone, they can't be. They're for the ones of us who enjoy the unique and random exposure to something original and are willing to take a chance that it might be a total bomb. The zombie genre isn't original. But this film is. And it made this fan feel like a kid again. That is why I love it, why I own it, and why I re-watch it often.

"Hide and Creep" has the look of an undiscovered 80's zombie movie and the heart of one too. It just rocks with it's bad, low budget self. Obviously there's a lot of love put into it, all the characters do their thing without falling into over-the-top clichés or stereotypes. The description on here is a tad misleading. You won't see a flying saucer or an alien and the televisions work pretty well for the most part. What you will see is a tongue in cheek zombie movie where the whole premise is people are just trying to get out of dodge at the beginning of a zombie invasion. These are some of the most sneaky zombies I think I've ever seen, man they just pop up, just like that. Budget is an estimated $20,000 which tells me that the actors involved where doing it for the love. The director(s) Chuck Harsell and Chance Shirley make good use of their camera work with fairly imaginative shots. The zombie effects are hit and miss. The gore is substantial enough to probably find a good amount of censoring on television if ever broadcast. I liked all the characters, nobody was sleeping through their lines, and all seemed independently created with real lives behind them. This should be a MUST SEE for the zombie lovers and on every zombie movie lovers list. It doesn't quite change the game but it does keep the bodies on ice.

I love zombie movies and I always appreciate seeing someones take on the zombie genre. This wasn't an excellent film by any means but it was funny and I really liked what they tried to do. It had some creative moments in it which now a days that is all you can really expect from a zombie movie. I know I just want to see something that I have not seen a million times already and I believe with this movie there are some real fresh moments. I would definitely recommend this movie not because it's perfect or wonderful, but because it's funny and has some new zombie moments in it. I really enjoyed the idea that Zombies are afraid of the dark. I don't recall ever seeing that before in a zombie film and it actually makes some sense. It removes the fear of the night and actually gives you a safe feeling. The quality isn't perfect so when you rent it do not expect top of the line Romero style Zombies, it's an Independent Film and it shows.

OKay first off I had nothing to do with this movie nor did I personally know any of the actors or any of the cast or crew members for that matter.

I have seen the worst of the worst zombie movies and movies in general. This is a very low budget movie with that in mind this movie was done very well.. Almost too well. My friends and I still quote lines from it and we still get together and watch it when we have our zombie movie get togethers. The acting was OK, the plot was OK and the effects were a little on the cheap side but for a low budget movie and entertainment it really does get much better than this movie.. Keep in mind that it is a low budget cheap cheezy zombie movie. but its funny and fun to watch.. I liked it and will defend it to anyone...

If you wanna she some crap movies check out anything by asylum. Especially that Night of the Dead Leben Tod that is the worst movie ever made.. Chuck and Chance are Spielbergs compared to that crap.
