Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOriginally, this was only meant to be about 20 minutes long and solely used as the feature movie in American Drive-in (1985). At some point during production, the decision was made to invest a little bit more money and come out with two full length feature films instead of just one.
- GoofsSoon after the end credits start rolling, director Krishna Shah's first name is misspelled as 'Written By Kirshna Shah.'
- Crazy creditsThis film is dedicated to Ramona Evelyn Andrus "Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns..." -- William Wordsworth
- Alternate versionsSome gory shots were removed from the theatrical release to avoid an "X" rating. The unrated Vestron VHS restores the cut gore.

Featured review
You can guess it is not a movie to watch with high expectations, but there should be at least something for the actual fans of the genre i.e. extremely low budget zombie movies, rock'n'roll and the 80s as such. Sadly, there isn't. Technically speaking this production it is not even a movie, but a remade 20-minute piece and you can notice the desperation of the filmmakers trying to fill the other 78 minutes with anything at all, which included full songs played by the band on stage, totally random interludes and repeating the same video sequences. The unrelated scenes could disturb the plot and the logical course of events, if there were any, but in fact there wasn't much.
This movie is quite different from other zombie movies, surely it is gory and tasteless at moments, but for the most part it is incredibly boring and the things which make no sense are not even that funny. It can be quite a disappointment for hard rock and heavy metal fans (who are most likely to pick this movie: come on, zombies, Hitler and rock'n'roll) because it doesn't really feature the 80s' music they would listen to. The tracks are not hard rock and not even rock'n'roll. I liked the love ballad "Cassie's Song" though. I think I'll even give the movie an extra star for that (the base rating was 2 for "bad, but I managed to watch it till the end").
I find this movie a little too bad even for people specifically interested in bad movies. Unless things like Nazi zombie midgets really do it for you, then you totally should go for it.
