As they travel back in the city for more supliees they meet up with 3 lesbian vampires, a washed up Mexican wrestler and others to take on the zombie epidemic.
Review
Shot on video, but it's surprisingly fun to watch. The acting is horrid, the music seems lifted out of resident evil, but the zombie make-up is great! El diablo azul, even in his smal role was quite funny but wasnt really needed, same for the sex scenes that seem to have been tacked on at the end for no apparent reason. It may sound like the negatives out weigh the positives but it truely is entertaining.

Plot
Christina goes to the family mansion to hear the reading of her
late fathers will. It is there that she meets some very strange relatives. Her nights at the mansion are filled with horror as she dreams of zombies attacking her, but are these really dreams? She finds the truth as her dark family secret is slowly revealed.
Review
This can't really be considered a zombie movie as the only zombies we see are in her dreams. The scenes are shown repeated times over. They seem to be taken from another movie entirely. It may just be the copy of the movie I have but all the gore, sex, and nudity scenes are either edited out or some how covered up. By covered up I mean we can see about 1/3 of the screen but the rest is totally blacked out, very odd. Maybe the uncut version, if there is one might be better but this version is very dull and repetitive.

Plot
A highly toxic chemical is being transported by the military. On the trip the barrel of toxic chemicals falls out of the truck and into the greasy hands of some rednecks that use the barrell and its contents for their new moonshine. The redneck community drinks this new moonshine and soon the whole population have become redneck zombies. This does not sit well with some disoriented campers whacked out on acid. What will happen?
Review
Not as good as I had hoped. I hoped it would be a great fun cheap movie. Yes it was cheap but it wasn't fun at all. The zombies are few if any till near the end, and when we do see them, they look horrible, and a few zombies' makeup can be seen peeling/falling off. The way the campers deal with the zombies in the end is .....well...... far beyond lame. The "acid" scene is out of place and stupid. This is one of Troma's more famous titles, but this is below even Troma's standards of cheapness.

Review
Not a bad movie. the acting isn't the greatest and the zombies dont arrive till near the end of the movie but the great make up and all the horror movie references help this movie out, you can tell them makers of this film were true fans of horror.

Plot
A group of people have been invited to spend a weekend in a
Scottish mansion, little did they know that the mansion housed a mad scientist bent on discovering the secret of eternal life.
Review
First of all, the zombie make-up is some of the best for it's time period. The decayed faces are great. The plot is non existant. The movie basically plays out like this: a group of people explore the vast grounds of the mansion and discover a hoard of zombies. They hide in the mansion for the night, then in another building the next day, till they're all dead. There's one or two slow spots but the amount of zombie actions makes up for it.
