Zombies Vs. Strippers

This is one of those movies that struggles with its identity. Billed as a comedy it really doesn't contain that much humor. At the same time, it doesn't quite measure up as a good zombie film because of all of the attempted comedy. In other words, it suffers from the exact same problem that so many other "zombedy" (zombie-comedy) films have--they're neither scary nor funny. Add in the fact that this was a low-budget production and the difficulties become even more pronounced. Having said that, this wasn't nearly as bad as it could have been. The acting was adequate for the most part with Circus-Szalewski (as the bar owner named "Spider") probably putting in the best effort. Likewise having Eve Mauro (as the stripper "Sugar Hills") and Adriana Sephora (as "Jasmine") certainly helped to improve the scenery. All in all then, this film wasn't nearly as bad as it could have been and I suppose I should be thankful for that. Slightly below average.

As a zombie aficionado, I have to put my decaying hands on just about anything zombie I can come across, and with a title like this, I was fearing that it was going to be as bad as the 2008 "Zombies! Zombies! Zombies!" movie. But luckily I was just a notch better than that movie, not much, but just enough to make it bearable to sit through it to the very end.

Full Moon have some fairly questionable, but still worthwhile horror movies to their names, movies that are pseudo-legends in their own way, such as "Puppet Master" and the like, so you generally know what you are going to get from this movie. And it has been quite some time since I have stumbled upon something from Charles Band, so it was a nice surprise with this movie.

The story is fairly simple and straight forward, easy enough to follow even for the zombies amongst us in the audience. Set in a small, shady strip club, a group of exotic dancers and their boss find themselves trapped in their going-out-of-business strip club with hordes of the undead wrecking havoc in the city and pressing hard against the doors, hungry to get in to the debauchery and subtle flesh beyond the unlocked doors.

The zombies in the movie were adequately made, not overly amateurish, but just lacking enough gore and ghastly effects to be outstanding. But in overall, they did well enough with the zombies, and I have seen far worse in many other zombie movies.

As for the characters in the movies, well they were so one-dimensional and stereotypical that it was just downright awful. I am not saying that the people cast to portray these were doing bad jobs, just that the characters in the movie were not really characters that came off as cleverly thought through. And the questionable dialog all throughout the entire movie sure didn't help make the characters become more realistic.

If you are a zombie aficionado like me, then "Zombies vs Strippers" is well worth a watch if you haven't seen it already. Yes, it is low budget, but they pulled it off well enough to be entertaining.

I watched it with a group of friends and that's how I recommend others see it. It's just so bizarre that this film exists, like why? It's got terrible production values and it's not taking itself to seriously and that makes it great as for all it's self awareness it has moments of unintentional humour. I wish I watched it drunk and I mean that in the best way possible.

This is yet another full moon picture, I still think this was a tiny improvement on The Dead want women.

This could have been a lot more funny then it was, well, it did make me laugh twice.

The rest of the jokes, felt way to forced and they lost all the funniest even before the jokes ended.

For a zombie movie, it wasn't as gory as I thought it would be , the zombies make up effects were really bad.

The first half hour was very boring,

The acting is not good at all but it's not unwatchable.

2 out of 10

So this is what our species have come to. To be honest, it's not terrible, but it's just boring. The main cast and zombies aren't interesting at all, the locations are dark and forgettable, and the plot essentially goes nowhere. Again, it's not the worst, it's just bland and forgettable, and that's saying something for a Full Moon picture. The good parts? Well, there's a guy with a pig nose and a few decent jokes. So I guess if you want to watch this movie, be my guest.
