Ibiza Undead

An Ebola type virus has created a zombie pandemic. Ibiza is seemingly a zombie free island. Sinister gay nightclub owner has zombie dancers and smuggles them in for no good reason. In fact he has lost a cargo of illegal alien zombies in the sea and wonders if they can swim.

Despite zombie mania, three horny teenage lads and one ex-girlfriend holiday to Ibiza to party. Alex is staying at his sister's villa. Jim is chubby, horny and misogynistic. When they go to a nightclub, crazed zombies go on a frenzy and our heroes need to escape Ibiza.

This is a juvenile and silly film. The teenage lads are by and large irritating, the acting is amateurish, the effects are ultra low budget, humour is non existent and the scrip is rubbish.

Not comedy, not even bad comedy, just a movie so bad it's almost comical. Emily Atack and Matt King must have shot this flick saying over and over to themselves "think of the paycheck think of the paycheck think of the paycheck". You will get the odd cringey laugh *at* the movie rather than anything *in* the movie, but it's not worth the time. Terrible, 1/10 maybe 0/10.

So I'm a big fan of Zombie films, and I have seen some great ones "Shaun of the Dead" and some bad ones which are still watchable "Cockneys v Zombies" And then there is this. This film is so bad its beyond belief, firstly the storyline is completely illogical, the acting is terrible, the characters are unlikable and very 2 dimensional To be fair to it, I did go into this thinking it was going to be bad but thought that like Cockneys v Zombies it would have some humorous bits in it and would be watchable and at least it would have a good soundtrack being that it's based on the Party Island of Ibiza But even the soundtrack was terrible! The only thing this gave me was a belief that if I wanted to get into film making I could make a film better than this

Stiff and boring dialogue and performances. TV series level photography and control.

I lived in Ibiza for 10 years, I love zombies and I love Matt King ... so it took some doing on the part of the filmmakers to make me hate this movie.

King is obviously there for a pay-check and a week in Ibiza, while the rest of the cast do their best in-betweeners impression.

Aside from a bit of stock footage and a scene in a San Antonio nightclub, we don't really get to see much of the White Isle itself, leading me to think more than half of this garbage was shot elsewhere having spent all the budget on booze during the Ibiza shoot.

Endless scenes of cringeworthy dialogue, a totally baffling story-line (if you can call it that), strained performances, bad special effects and a run time that feels like hours.

This is hard to watch - there is nothing to recommend it. Perhaps a half decent short could have been made as there is some level of basic competence in parts.

I watched for free on Prime and I want my money back. 2/10 - 1/2 for effort, 1/2 for Matt King and 1 for letting me see a few of my old local hangouts.
