Stripperland

Thank you very much - and I say this because this is based on Zombieland - and that is not just losely. Yes so the zombies here are female strippers. Sexist you say? No they talk about it in the movie in a very boring dialog scene, so it is all good.

Now I hope you got the sarcasm, but if not the rating should tell you how I really feel. This was really boring and while I acknowledge this is a low budget movie, the CGI is quite ok. It is painfully obvious, but you shouldn't expect any different. Lloyd Kaufman, whom I really like has a cameo that is not worthy of his comedic talent - and the movie overall is the same ... unfortunately

'STRIPPERLAND': Three Stars (Out of Five)

Another spoof of a spoof! 'STRIPPERLAND' is a very low budget ($500,000) spoof on 'ZOMBIELAND'. The premise is basically the same as 'ZOMBIELAND' except instead the world has been taken over by zombie strippers, rather than just regular zombies. It was co-written (with Brad McCray, Shawn Justice and Tyler Benjamin) and directed by Sean Skelding and features a cast of mostly unknowns (with the exception of a few brief cameos by the likes of Daniel Baldwin, Boyd Banks and Lloyd Kaufman). The movie is pretty bad but it does have some good laughs, nice performances and a few decent zombie scenes.

The story revolves around a young man (Ben Sheppard) who's managed to survive in a post-apocalyptic future due to his book of rules of course. He explains to the viewers, as the movie opens, that a virus caused most of the world's female population to turn into zombie strippers, which began feeding on everyone else (although they're unlike any other movie zombies being that they can be killed by any shot to the body and not just one to the head!). Very early on the young man hooks up with a tough loner (Jamison Challeen) passing through town and the two give each other the nicknames Idaho and Frisco. They then team up with two young women (Maren McGuire and Ileana Herrin) and the four make a plan to head to Portland, Or, the stripper capitol of the world (and there are continuous jokes about how many strippers and strip clubs there are in Oregon)!

The filmmaker Sean Skelding also helmed the movie 'I AM VIRGIN' in 2010, which is a low budget spoof on 'I AM LEGEND'. That makes a lot more sense to me! Spoofing a serious action / horror film like 'I AM LEGEND' and making it about the last living man (a virgin) in a world of sex-crazed vampires is a pretty good idea (although I've heard the movie is horrible) but spoofing an already very clever spoof like 'ZOMBIELAND' makes no sense. It is better than other spoofs of spoofs like 'SCARY MOVIE' or 'THE 41-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN' but it's still pretty bad. An argument can be made that it's 'so bad it's good' though. Like I said it's saving grace is a few good jokes, some nice performances and some cool zombie actions scenes (if you're a die-hard fan of zombie movies).

Stripperland (2011) is a Zombieland parody that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a virus that's turns women into strippers and eventually into zombies. A group of survivors band together to find other survivors and resources in hopes of not getting turned into zombie food.

This movie is directed by Sean Skelding (I Am Virgin) and stars Linnea Quigley (Night of the Demons), Daniel Baldwin (Vampires), Maren McGuire (Damaged Goods), Boyd Banks (Dawn of the Dead), Lloyd Kaufman (The Final Countdown) and Thom Bray (Prince of Darkness).

I will give the production team credit for finding a narrator and actor that closely resembled and sounded like Jesse Eisenberg from Zombieland...and he was even more annoying. The kills in this, especially the tearing flesh, was well executed. The gore and blood splatter really isn't bad. The Baldwin music video was awful and painful to watch. The guy they picked to play Woody wasn't it. The soundtrack also isn't bad. Oh, and there isn't much nudity in this that you may expect based on the title.

Overall, this isn't the worst parody you'll ever see. I would score this a 4/10 but still recommend seeing it once.

This was the only non-vampire movie left (I hate vampire movies) on my AppleTV's horror gallery, so I just had to see it. I regret it now, I have to say. Why does Apple allow amateur movies in? This movie needs plenty of work on the audio. (My $120 cheap'o camera almost does better, even without an external microphone.) It needs plenty of work on the blood splatter effects. They don't look like splatter at all, but rather like something someone put on for "good effect" after plenty of beers. And without knowledge of physics.

The acting is extremely bad, and the nudity is non-existent. And the script... Well, they could need another script. One of the actresses is kinda cute, though. But not cute enough to make this movie valuable.

Dear Apple, please print an "amateur" warning on when you but things like this one my AppleTV. It's not funny, and it would probably not have been approved by Steve if he was still alive.

But of course, this might be a parody of something of which I have no relation whatsoever. If that is the case, some might find it funny. Good for you, then.

This review will be short.

About the movie, it is basically a parody of Zombieland but this time the zombies are strippers. It is all in all a good movie with crude humor, nudity, a lot of blood and gore, weird dialogs and some bad acting. It has the same concept, the same search for Twinkie (not exactly Twinkie), the same search for lost family, the same SUV and the same four characters.

If you are only interested in having many laughs with a little or no sense then this movie is for you. I liked this movie because it is sometimes fun to watch pointless movies when you need a change.
