ZombieDrule thinks..Zombie Nation make me want to add a 0 to the ZombiesDrule rating scale. It is a bad movie, a very bad movie. I'm surprised I watched it the whole way through, but what choice do I have, you guys are relying on me. Zombie Nation is quite clearly an independent movie, from the poor script with major loop holes to the sets being so low budget that you can see the edges of the fake walls into the warehouse that its being filmed. The story is set around Joe, he is a cop who likes to pull over pretty girls and take them back to his house (which is also conveniently in a warehouse) There he ties them up and murders them, put them in a big old bag and buries them in the middle of nowhere. For some reason none of his partners do anything about this, I don't think they the skills to spot a serial killer, even if he is right under they noses. Maybe its because they are too distracted by the 707th district offices which are also in a warehouse, none of the officers have their on office, not even the top boss cop. So after Joe the Evil cop has killed about 3 or 4 girls a haggle, I think that's the right term, of voodoo priestess perform voodoo for beginners on one of Joe’s victims. Where and how they found her I still don't know. This was the point of the film where I got very lost, I was losing interest fast, the acting was getting to me and it kept flashing back to a kid in a mental hospital (which I think Joe) being tortured by his mum. I think the ritual goes wrong, and Joe's victims rise from the grave. Here come the Zombies, at last, the soil moves and a hand breaks through the earth, pulling a rotting corpse out into the sun light.....oh hang on its just an actor with really big black circles around her eyes. She is then joined by another of Joe's dead victims, also with raccoon eyes, and they meet man, who invites them into his car. He seems to think he has scored and one of the girls says " kiss me", sigh.... we have talking Zombies, and she bites his tongue off. oh and then drives his car away, sigh....they can drive too. From then on it just gets worse. The only time we get close to seeing a Zombie eat brains is when one of them eats a random guys penis. The sound track is very German techno-ish and the film just goes from bad to worse. One more thing, don't be fooled like a was with the DVD/Poster art, it has little to do with the movie. This film is a waste of a good title, Zombie Nation could of been so much better.
Best Line - None, only bad lines. Best Weapon - No weapons used..No zombies killed. |
