These dead aren’t living, walking, evil, or even ‘un.’ They’re just plain old Dead.
2010’s The Dead takes me back to old school zombie films and undead African cannibal exploitation films of the 1970s. The blow-by-blow of pretty much every moment an individual spends trying to survive in a world overrun by zombies may … Continue reading

Check your boobs at the door (where they’ll definitely get eaten)
Strippers! Prostitutes! Burlesque dancers! Zombies! If you go into any of the 3 movies I’m about to discuss with ANY expectation other than boobs and blood, than a) you’ll be sorely disappointed, and b) you have no taste in movies. … Continue reading
Check your brain at the door (where it will probably get eaten)
Way back in 1985, just after George Romero’s official third installment in the “of the dead” series hit theaters, the campy horror Return of the Living Dead, an unofficial continuation, was released, and did something Day of the Dead didn’t. … Continue reading

What a large body count this zombie film has got…hot bodies, that is
How often do you see rippling man muscles in the first 5 minutes of a zombie film? Living muscles, that is. When Steve Niles’ Remains begins, it appears that the few survivors of the zombie apocalypse are spared any cannibalistic … Continue reading

Silent Night, Zombie Night…not all is bright
When I came across this 2011 film, I was way psyched to add my first zombie Christmas film to my collection of heart-warming Christmas horrors. Make that heart-eating Christmas horror…. Great title, cover image looks campy/action oriented, AND it’s a … Continue reading
Ever wish a Big Brother housemate would get eaten by a zombie?
From what I understand, the show Big Brother was an even bigger reality show in the U.K. than it was in the U.S. The 2008 U.K. “mini-series” Dead Set (really just a 3 hour movie broken into segments) imagines what … Continue reading

Quarantined with sequalitis: terror goes off on different tangents…
I definitely have plenty of favorite horror movies that terrified me over the decades. At this point, I never actually expected there would be another movie to really push my nerves over the edge as they did when I was … Continue reading
When Pulse gets a dose of The Crazies
No, these are NOT zombies. In fact, The Crazies were more like zombies than these crazies. The crazies in 2007’s The Signal are really just your normal everyday nut jobs. There’s no cannibalism here, just mere raw violence and brutality. … Continue reading
The small zombie film with a big bite
Nope, it’s not a German remake of a Sylvester Stallone movie. Rammbock is actually a short and effective zombie film. And by short, I mean, like, an hour long. This film doesn’t have time to be tongue-in-cheek, self-referential, or comedic. … Continue reading
