Swamp Zombies!!!

I definitely think this kind of projects are the best ways for an aspiring filmmaker to learn the trick...actually I would like to see this type of films made in my own country. I'm also a fan of B-horror like Braindead or Killer Klowns from Outer Space. I rented Swamp Zombies!!! with the intend to just have a fun time and not expecting a masterpiece.

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.

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.

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).

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.

A group of stereotypical school students go on a science class expedition to the local swamp unaware that numerous zombies have popped up around the area after an experimental drug is dumped in the water.

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.
