Swamp Zombies!!!

This film is bad. No question about it. But rather than just criticize the film for its faults I thought I would also point out some of the good things about it and explain the reasons for some of the flaws as well. For example, most of the actors were amateurs and it showed. However, this was an ultra low-budget production and as a result hiring top-notch professional actors was definitely out of the question. So the director, (Len Kabasinski) had to make do with whatever was available. With that in mind, I actually thought some of the scenes were somewhat adequate, particularly those involving "Dr. Phillips" (Shannon Solo) and to a lesser extent some of the scenes with "Lillian Carter" (Jasmin St. Claire). Unfortunately, these barely average scenes were few and far between. Likewise, the script was actually okay. It was the way the other actors delivered their lines that left me less than impressed. Even so, as bad as the acting may have been, the fight scenes were much worse. Yet instead of minimizing them the director chose to present one after another. Of course, the fact that he was one of the characters in the film ("Jack") who was involved in several of the fight scenes might be a key reason for this. Regardless, they were still pretty awful. Ditto the makeup for the zombies. Anyway, having said all of this, I believe that this movie could have been salvaged if it had focused more on Dr. Phillips and Lillian, put more emphasis on makeup and minimized physical combat. It didn't and the final product suffered accordingly. So, while allowances could be made for the lack of financial resources available, the fact remains that this movie could have been better in spite of it all. That said, while it isn't the worst zombie movie I have ever seen, it was certainly bad enough.

The makers of Swamp Zombies clearly had ambitions. Filled with a large cast and a number of locations (yes the low budget favorite woods are used but we also have a lot filmed in a hospital with plenty of extras walking around).

But that doesn't make Swamp Zombies good. I saw the 2 hour cut which is interminably boring. The audio is all in-camera and changes between shots.

The zombies, of which there is way too little are just some people with some blood splattered on them. It would have been awesome to get some mucky-living dead coming out of a swamp, but theres not even a swamp in Swamp Zombies. Its just a forest. Theres also a few scenes at a beach.

Little gore, a surprising amount of nudity, and too much talking. This was director Len Kabasinki's first feature, he has gone on to make 16 more films as of 2022, including a sequel which is mercifully only 75 minutes long.

Awesome movie, exciting fight scenes, professional editing, award winning music, great acting, crystal clear sound, brilliant script...oops sorry i made some spelling mistakes there. Let me correct them.

awesome = awful, exciting = hilarious, professional = dreadful, award winning = random horrid, crystal clear = sound crew were on vacation, brilliant = diabolical.

I think the only reason there were not goofs listed for this movie is that there would be so many it would crash IMDb servers.

I read it was originally 3 hours long and they cut it to just under 2, i think they needed to cut 2 more hours out of it.

Yeah it was low budget but you don't need budget to write a script, it just didn't have one. It seemed to be just an excuse to show some breasts and then kind of throw some Zombies in it too.

All that aside you still have to sit through all 2 hours of it just because it was so funny, it wasn't listed as a comedy but you couldn't help but laugh at it.

It's type of movie guy would watch with a bunch of drunk friends (Please drink responsibly).

I watch many independent horror movies. I'm a real Indie Movie Buff. Trust me when I say I've sat through some awful movies. As a self confessed B-Movie fan, It takes a lot for me to write such a bad review. But in all honesty, Swamp Zombies is absolutely pathetic.

The editing was the worst attribute of the whole movie. You can hear the camera's sound cutting out, as the scene changes. They seem to drown this noise by using some Un-Suspenseful, dire Backing tracks.

The acting is Terrible. Without a doubt the worst I have ever seen in a movie. I'm not just saying this for effect either. Genuinely, Where'd they find there actors, off the street? As for the camera-man, I can only assume he was drunk, since he couldn't hold the camera still.

The setting was Grotesque. It was supposed to be a lab. It was a room, with a few curtains and some wood blocks for about six extras to lie upon. Tragic.

There was a sex scene, Involving two Ugly as hell 'Actors'. The girl wearing a dirty old grannies bra. It just looked totally amateur, and was probably the LEAST arousing thing to Disgrace my screen.

There are two FIXED reviews on here Obviously posted by the cast/Crew. About six lines of non-detailed bull about the movie, making it sound like a blockbuster masterpiece. On Killerwolf films other movie Curse of the wolf, There are two more fixed reviews there. As if these losers are writing their own reviews giving there movies 10 out of 10. It's pathetic.

Avoid this trash like an STD. Even if you like B-Movies, And Cheese.

1/10 - Some girl has a shower scene = Nice T*ts.

I have a hard time believing that this movie was made. That means that the crew/cast actually read the script and decided, "sure, let's produce this!" The writing is terrible, the acting is worse, the special effects are a joke, the cinematography was most likely preformed by a child, and the editing is so bad that I can't believe even Brain Damage would accept such trash. This isn't fun bad, this is not worth your time to even make fun of bad. I love zombie movies and this is a disgrace to the entire genre. If the filmmakers know what is good for them, they would stop making the world suffer through their terrible monstrosities and go to work in another field.
