Dead Don't Die in Dallas

And funny. This is a camp B-Movie that actually works pretty well. Yes, as some other obvious phobes have stated in their obvious hit piece "reviews" which are actually just statements of their own prejudices. There is a few preachy political moments, but they quickly pass and MOST of the movie is just a straight up (No pun intended) Camp Zombie Flick that made me laugh when it was suppose to, and look away at the pretty well done gore most of the time, and the story was all together funny. It's basically what you'd expect when a group of drag queens and normal "Don't care" persons end up having to group up with and or interact with a far right preacher amid a zombie apocalypse as seen from a very small town perspective.

The premise is simple, the world is celebrating the invention of a super vax medication in the form of a miracle pill that makes humans immune to any and all bacterial/viral infections...including everything from the Flu to STDS and everything in between, which as you'd expect doesn't go well and here comes the zombies. The dialog made me laugh out loud quite often (intentionally which is the key) and overall does what it is suppose to. L I was actually surprised at the acceptable level of effects, acting, kills and overall humorous outcome, and the ending was quite satisfying to me personally...lol It's certainly better than many other movies with higher scores and does it's job in a pretty respectable way. If you enjoy or CAN enjoy B or intentional Campy movies this may surprise you and was full of a quite a few zingers and funny situations. IF you however are a seriously prejudiced, right winger or ill person regarding anything other than far right wing politics you probably will not appreciate this movie in any respect, much less be able to judge the movie as a movie.

The acting is actually quite good. I loved it with some laugh out loud moments. It SHOULD have been made in the 80s so people who lived through that time will appreciate it much more than your younger set I believe. It pretty much captures the mindset of major religious figures in that time and explains why the U.S. was so slow to react to the AIDs crisis.For a "cheesy" movie it's pretty well written.

The zombie siege plot line seems to be just an excuse to force the main characters together so they debate about gay/transgender issues. If you like that, then you will like this movie. And the anti-gay preacher gives a lot of supposed quotes from scripture that aren't even scripture. If you are going to demonize religious people, at least research the subject first. There are some genuinely funny moments though.

Awful acting, awful effects, awful scenario, in a reverse world this would be a masterpiece!!!

This may very well be the worst zombie movie I've ever sat through (and that's saying a lot). Probably not for the reasons you're thinking (Poorly directed, badly acted, lapses in logic? Nope). The biggest problem with The Dead Don't Die in Dallas is the fact that it's ALL social commentary. The zombie apocalypse is just a backdrop to being ceaselessly hit over the head with an agenda. News flash: There is such a thing as subtle social commentary. Having it constantly in your face does not make for an entertaining movie. I have one piece of advice for this young (just a wild guess) filmmaker: Go back and watch George Romero's zombie flicks.

The preacher is insufferable. The resolution? One person he was offending just kills him. This seemed really wrong, especially when a movie such as this wants to convey a message.

Just when I thought I couldn't take any more, I checked the time. I still had ONE HOUR left of this movie! It is brutal to get through. Alright, if I'm going to pick it apart any further, the gore is no good. The blood is like red water thoughout this film. Any idiot who has watched a behind-the-scenes extra knows that you use Karo syrup. That's like makeup FX 101.

For some unknown reason, these filmmakers have stolen all the "grindhouse" homages, INCLUDING "missing reel!" It's been done. And they couldn't even get the nudity right! Now that was pathetic. Check it out for yourself, if you can make it that far.

Maybe if you're transitioning, you happen to like bad zombie movies, AND you like your messages poured on REAL thick, you MIGHT enjoy this?
