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 have no clue with the IMDb page lists this as being 90 minutes, but the version on the Catacomb of Creepshows box-set runs almost 2 hours. Now 2 hours is a mighty long time for a low-budget zombie film. It's unsustainable for even a good one. For a bad one, it's excruciating. This movie is very much the latter in that scenario. It wouldn't be surprised in the least if this film was 'written' on the fly. The acting's no worse than most backyard epics and the fight scenes are somewhat fun, but for gods sake learn to edit.
Eye Candy: Amanda Simmons & Pamela Sutch get topless; Jasmin St. Claire shows T&A in a shower scene; and one unknown gets topless during the end credits
But even those expectations were too high. I don't say I could do this better, but this was one of the most boring films I've seen in quite a while. I really can appreciate the idea of a zombieflick with lots of gore, kung-fu and nudity in it. But except for the fun the director took on the nudity, 'Swamp Zombies!!!' just didn't work.
Let's be honest: two hours is just too long for a zombiemovie. Kungfu-scenes were overlong, lack of continuity and terrible acting made this film quite a boring ride, instead of the fun roller-coaster-ride I had hoped to see.

- TriviaThe first cut of Swamp Zombies was 3 hours in length. Editor J.R. Hubbard worked with director Kabasinski to cut unnecessary scenes and trim several others to get it down to a two-hour runtime.
- Crazy creditsAny resemblance to real persons living, dead or undead is purely coincidental.
