The Walking Deceased

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Walking with the Dead" (2015) is not the worst movie of all time, and that is probably the best thing i can say about this "spoof". I liked that they tried to spoof some famous zombie movies and shows, but they failed or not even tried harder. Characters (more like costumes) that resembles famous characters from the originals are there and they kinda try to spoof them, but usually it is not funny, more just dull and gross at times. There are some very bad dialogs and acting in here, and although i love spoof genre, this one isn't good - comparing any "Scary Movie" installment to "Walking with the Dead" would be like trying to compare "Godfather" with , well "Walking with the Dead".

Overall, whether you like spoof genre or not, "Walking with the Dead" is a very poor attempt to laugh at some famous movies. In order for make a funny spoof they forget to create a nice movie - even good spoofs don't have to be great art, but this one is just just dreadful. But it is not the worst movie or spoof i have ever saw, there are some worst movies, but i couldn't recommend this flick to anyone.

Not very funny spoof of Walking Dead. Some lines were funny, but it relied too much on very contemporary pop-buzz-terminology. I guess they didn't consider that many who watch a serious show like the Walking Dead are probably not interested in Snookie or Kardashian or all the inside jokes on TMZ. So it was overkill.

But the funniest line was when our hero was all upset that Twitter, Facebook, Instagram went down during the Zombie Apocalypse, but then asked about Linked In, and was told, "No, Linked In's still up."

But after that, pretty boring. I shut it off after 20 minutes. The guy who was to play Daryl didn't even look like him at all, or talk like him. They should have hired actors who could really spoof the originals.

OK, This was a mix of knock offs from many titles. That is just fine. What many of the users or critics will say is that it wasn't very good. I disagree. I think this movie was meant to be this way. It's a comedy, a joke. The script may not be that well written or the acting that wonderful, but I believe that the actors did a good job at portraying the current zombie flicks and shows in a humorous manner. It wasn't meant to win an Oscar, but it made me laugh. To truly understand this movie you would have to have watched all the shows and movies it's based off of. I say for such a low budget and for fitting in so many aspects, they did a great job. I would give it a 5 of 10 any day. If you don't like comedy, you would not agree and as a comedy it would not get that score. As a parody of films and shows that I have watched put into a comedy, I say well done. Good job guys, I would not call this a B movie. I would call it a cheap A.

The one star I give this stinker is only because there are a couple of funny moments and lines. I also kind of appreciated the homage to The Walking Dead (the sheriff, an obvious Rick, is called Sheriff Lincoln...the last name of actor Andrew Lincoln, who plays Rick in The Walking Dead).

The script is one of the worst imaginable. Jokes and gags fall cringingly flat left and right. This is only exacerbated by the horrid non acting from the cast of non actors. The plot is a silly mess. The directing is non existent.

Skip this unwatchable dretch.

The degree of enjoyment one would get from this poorly made spoof is how much churlish subjects like stripper zombies one can tolerate. It takes a lot of zombie titles and creates a bland parody of them. However, movies like Warm Bodies and Zombieland originally had much more humor, making this spoof a very inferior viewing.

There's not much in term of plot or technical aspects. It merely copies the look and some of the quirks on different shows, then puts some exaggerated crude jokes on them. It's certainly far from the refined amusement of Shaun of the Dead, which it ironically also copies on one of its scenes. Some of the gags even feel redundantly repetitive or outright obnoxious.

There are some things it does correctly, although these are so few, such as the impression of Walking Dead Daryl which looks pretty convincing. It points out odd plot devices of the genre like creepy couple with ulterior motives, but then again it's very expected and those who have internet might have come across these jokes before. The rest are cheap knock-offs from the better original titles, which are more bearable, though still in much lower quality.

In span of its runtime, The Walking Deceased probably only has a couple of decently original comedy, which pale in comparison of its more juvenile ones. It's better to rewatch the movies it spoofs on than wasting time on this lackluster parody.
