Night of Something Strange

It was the movie's cover/poster that initially caught my attention, and it looked very much like a 1980's horror movie. I read the synopsis and then decided to sit down and watch "Night of Something Strange".

And let me just be the first to say that "Night of Something Strange" turned out to be something rather different than what I had expected. So for better or worse? Well, honestly, it was for the latter.

The storyline in "Night of Something Strange" turned out to be rather ridiculous, and it was really difficult to get into the groove of the movie and get immersed into the storyline.

The acting in the movie was actually quite adequate, taking into consideration the budget of the movie and the type of movie that it is. So the acting talents actually did good jobs with the limitations imposed on them.

"Night of Something Strange" certainly had some fun enough moments, but they were outweighed by the inadequacies and lacks that the movie was weighed down by. As such, it wasn't a very memorable or enjoyable movie. And it was quite difficult to take anything in the movie serious.

The special effects in the movie were as to be expected from a movie of this caliber. So don't get your hopes up.

Normally I am a big zombie aficionado, but "Night of Something Strange" just was way too far out there, even for my liking.

My rating of "Night of Something Strange" lands on a less than mediocre 4 out of 10 stars.

Morgue janitor Cornelius (Wayne W. Johnson) doesn't read the toe tags… if he did, then he probably wouldn't have climbed on board a Jane Doe for a spot of necro-nookie: according to the girl's label, she either died of radiation exposure or an unknown STD. Either way, it's bad news for Cornelius, who turns into a manky zombie rapist who quickly spreads his infection to his wife, who in turn spreads the infection to her mailman, who proceeds to transmit the disease to a gas station attendant. Before long, there are sex mad zombies all over the place—bad news for a group of teenagers who stop for the night at a nearby motel on their way to spring break.

I've been known to enjoy very low-brow movies in the past, but Night of Something Strange takes puerile vulgarity and crass horror to a whole new level, so much so that I actually felt embarrassed for those taking part—not just because the actors are required to perform lurid acts that are above and beyond the call of duty, but because the finished product just isn't amusing enough to make their debasement worthwhile. Used tampon eating, a fart-in-the-face gag that involves follow through, a masturbation scene, accidental male-on-male butt sex (the film's absolute nadir, which is preceded by some rimming), a tidal wave of zombie ejaculate, and mutated genitalia: just some of the outrageousness on offer that I found too tasteless and moronic to tickle my funny bone.

This movie is unbelieveable dumb, playing with dozends of clichés of horror movies. Starting with a pervert in a coroner hall, disturbing the.dignity of the death by doing sexual misbehavior, over a botched spring break to total absurdity. It has more than disgusting scenes and simply no real story. I must admit that some of the scenes were that irritating absurd that I couldn't hold on laughing. But that was more reflexevly than because of the "fun" it pretends to spread. Sure there were some unintentional funny moments, but too less.

I don't know why I watched it until the end. I guess I did, because I wanted to know if that rubish can get lower and - surprise - it did every few Minutes. It's not that I don't like gory horror movies including sex scenes, but this one is just silly and somehow infantile.

My conclusion is that it is unintentionally funny at some moments, but also unbearable disgusting, brutally aggressive and at the end not really worth watching it. I still gave it a 4/10. That's.to be attributed to the fascination of the absurdity it provides for itself.

Not knowing what to expect from this one I saw it was supposed to be a funny horror. Funny horrors mostly doesn't work out but there are exceptions like this one.

Let me be straight, this is a no-brainer. Just sit and enjoy. For some people this will be over the top because it's all about teens eager to have sex and terribly going wrong but you will see if you watching this flick. The flick starts immediately with pure horror and before you know it you are into a funny ride full of gore gore ,a bit of nudity and gore.

I can't spoil what is going on but it all starts with necrophilia. From there on the virus is on his way to conquer the world.

And just when you think that this flick is falling down on humour when a guy is having sex in the dark with his girlfriend, you're in for another ride of...well, just pick this up if you do like for example Tucker And Dale (2010) or the Ash vs Evil Dead series.

I enjoyed it a lot and had a smile throughout the whole flick.

I was amazed by how the people driving vehicles got from afternoon to after dark, but not out of the town where the people with the virus were. The gasoline/ food store was a major infection center, where the local people infected could walk to the motel, that took people hours to drive to. From afternoon to after dark. Those are extremely fast zombies, when they are not shuffling around. The virus is extremely fast acting also. Very little growth time. It varies a lot. Sometimes it's, give me a second and I'll be right on that. Other times, it's a long slow car ride from afternoon to night. This review was 2 characters too short. BTW The teacher was a famous Scream Queen.
