This may very well be the worst zombie movie I've ever sat through (and that's saying a lot). Probably not for the reasons you're thinking (Poorly directed, badly acted, lapses in logic? Nope). The biggest problem with The Dead Don't Die in Dallas is the fact that it's ALL social commentary. The zombie apocalypse is just a backdrop to being ceaselessly hit over the head with an agenda. News flash: There is such a thing as subtle social commentary. Having it constantly in your face does not make for an entertaining movie. I have one piece of advice for this young (just a wild guess) filmmaker: Go back and watch George Romero's zombie flicks.
The preacher is insufferable. The resolution? One person he was offending just kills him. This seemed really wrong, especially when a movie such as this wants to convey a message.
Just when I thought I couldn't take any more, I checked the time. I still had ONE HOUR left of this movie! It is brutal to get through. Alright, if I'm going to pick it apart any further, the gore is no good. The blood is like red water thoughout this film. Any idiot who has watched a behind-the-scenes extra knows that you use Karo syrup. That's like makeup FX 101.
For some unknown reason, these filmmakers have stolen all the "grindhouse" homages, INCLUDING "missing reel!" It's been done. And they couldn't even get the nudity right! Now that was pathetic. Check it out for yourself, if you can make it that far.
Maybe if you're transitioning, you happen to like bad zombie movies, AND you like your messages poured on REAL thick, you MIGHT enjoy this?
