The 15-year-old boy in you will be delighted
Added 3/3/2010
Basically if you thought EVIL DEAD 2 was an over-the-top hysterical gorefest, you ain't seen nothin' yet. Imagine a 3 Stooges movie where instead of getting hit with pies or poked in the eyes, people got their legs pulled off or intestines tugged out. Interested yet? The fact that it's A) made in New Zealand and B) set in the 1950s work in its favor: the whole outing feels like a bizzare, separate reality, better than if it were set in a suburban American shopping mall. Technichally speaking, it's crudely done, with choppy editing and awful synth score. Every resource available obviously went into the gore budget, to better create headless eviscerated zombies and mammoth monster mommies. The 15-year-old boy in you will be delighted. 4/5.

Give Me a Lawn Mower Now, Please!
Added 3/2/2010
I think Dead Alive has to be the goriest zombie film I've ever seen. My boyfriend made me watch it twice. Then I made him watch it again!!! Some of the effects are pretty cheezy like the little trolley cars moving through town, but apparently Peter Jackson shot this for just a few bucks, so really it's pretty impressive. The story is great and the acting is pretty good, too. Lots of twists and turns. I really liked the heroine because she's smart and committed and tough. The hero's a dork but he means well, so you root for him. And you can't go wrong with lawn mowers for anti-zombie weapons! Flying guts! Yuck!!! This movie is hilarious at times and totally over the top.

Hilarious cult movie
Added 2/3/2010
One of Peter Jackson's films before he got big with Lord of the Rings. Hilarious, cultish, and downright absurd. Equally enjoyed by horror film and comedy film fans.
