"Yee-hah!!





I would call this a fun filled, low-budget zombie splatter fest. The typical cliches are there; gross out blood & gore, minor nudity, zombies eating and nifty zombie make-up. You can tell that the director was influenced by George Romero, but the parasites reminded me of the 1986 horror film "Night of the Creeps" and the more recent "Slither." Where exactly the parasites came from is very vague, and might bother anyone looking for a definitive answer.



The director (Damon Lemay) keeps the zombie action fast & furious with many gore filled details and a few jump in your seat "gotchas" that work. The make-up is nicely done. (at a few points, even I was grossed out) The main trio of actors weren't bad, and it shows that they had fun while making this zombie opus. The soundtrack wasn't 100% thrash / heavy metal, which I enjoyed. I, personally, am sick to death of a director who uses this type of music ALL the time. I'm not against it; but there is a line for overkill. And I really would like to see what the director could do with a real movie budget.



Is this movie perfect? No. Is this the "Citizen Kane" of zombie flicks? No. Take it for what it is; an enjoyable fun filled zombie flick, made by people who enjoy zombie flicks, that doesn't take itself too seriously.

"Truly a work of comic,er zomic genius Zombie Town takes us to any small town U.S.A. that's over run with flesh eating ghouls. The zomedy never lets up as we follow the inept mechanic Jake LaFond, who couldn't fix a flat tire on a wheelbarrow much less a Chevy. Gun toting reneck clubs designed for weekends away from the old ladies nagging and uninterupted drinking to the granny Bingo night slaughter leaves Zombie Town destined to become a cult classic. For those of you who like a LOT of humor miked with your gore this film's for you. You'll die laughing if the zombies don't eat your brain first!"

Silly, naive, unpretentious... but no. This is an amateur mo

"What can I say about this video? A bunch of guys got together, wrote a zombie script where some slugs (very unoriginal) turn people into zombies (even more unoriginal!). Then the town is turned into zombies. Then Boy, Girl and their Friend have to escape and find a way to kill all the zombies.



That is all.

The script exactly what you have already seen in 100 others direct to video zombie films. They throw some jokes in it, but that's not enough. The makeup is pedestrian. The acting is nonexistent and the directing is unimaginative. Soundtrack is annoying. Nothing new whatsoever.



The only thing that saves this video is the unpretentiousness of it all. I mean... they are doing their best and they know they are not pros. So they are just having great fun doing a zombie flick.



Well done, boys, but write something truly inventive and surprising... and THEN do it with the same great attitude. Then you might strike gold. It's ok NOT to have money. BUT have something new to offer. This one is just like all others."
