  I am homeless. One day I was drinking vodka and loitering with my dog Sporky when I heard loud noises nearby. I suffered a flashback to 'nam and when I woke up I was apparently at a showing of this movie. I later found out that they had mistaken me for one of the extras judging by my disheveled appearance and the alcohol on my breath. This is a fantastic movie. I will list my reasons in order of importance, 1 being the most important. 1. There are ugly women wearing shorts. That is my fetish. I secretly admired the butterface leading lady while pretending to check my cellphone. I don't have a cellphone. 2. Zombies are cool. The zombies reminded me of the time I got really messed up on bath salts and killed another homeless man. The police can't prove anything. 3. The loud, mediocre music overwhelmed my brain and allowed me to briefly forget about watching my comrades die in the jungle. 4. I know a couple of other homeless people who "acted" in this movie in exchange for beer. You know some of those "zombies" who suddenly vomited all over themselves and died choking on their own blood? They weren't acting. RIP Slinky, Wozniak, and Crazy Mary. It was nice to see them immortalized on the silver screen. 5. It didn't last too long so I managed to watch the entire movie without wetting myself or having heroin withdrawals. I give this movie an A+ and a 1 out of 10 for number 1.

  Saying that it's "just a zombie movie" is a cop-out and suggests that legitimately good zombie films aren't legitimate art. This movie sucks and I regret wasting my time seeing it. I realize that it's an indie movie made by some alcoholic hicks from the South (no offense) but that doesn't excuse the fact that it's very cheesy and not in a really fun way. What was up with that Sinister Minister guy? It's kind of lame when your movie is hiring random gimmicky local celebrities. I wish that meant that this gave the movie some legitimate folksy charm or something, but it doesn't really work. I really wanted to like this movie, but it didn't work out.

  This movie is awful. Worst movie I've seen, and I love zombie movies. This film has nothing redeeming it. Its not funny enough to be a funny zombie movie and when it attempts to be funny it just winds up with the most cringe worthy attempts at jokes that could be done. It's not scary enough to be a horror zombie flick. The CGI gore and over the topness just make this seem like a wannabe movie to unrealistic to be scary. The film suffers from trying to find a new niche to in the zombie franchise but just ends up repeating other flicks to the point of plagiarism. The dialogue is questionable and the acting far below par. Not once could I even relate to the actors becuz they just seemed like they couldn't connect to the roles they were playing. This movie isn't even good enough to make it on Thriller or SyFy during zombie week or make it to the 49 cent ben at walmart Also, the Cody Cromartie reviewer was in the movie so don't belief him.

  I guess it's okay if you like regurgitated zombie garbage. You could probably find a better zombie movie on YouTube by some 13 year old kids. As a matter of fact, look up Nazi Zombies In Real Life, watch it, and see how it stacks up to this. Go ahead, I'll wait. So much better than this, right? And really, that's the problem with a lot of these awful zombie flicks. All the audience seems to care about is what kind of guns are going to be used, or how well stocked on beef jerky the theater's going to be, and that's what these directors cater to. This seems no different than The Walking Dead, or Zombieland, or the upcoming World War Z movie. These sorts of movies are made to appeal to the lowest form of movie goer there is. It's the kind of movie you have playing in the living room while you're hanging out, drinking beer, and talking about work. That is to say you're going to get more entertainment from your friends and your alcoholic beverage than you are going to get from this movie. I honestly wish I could tell you it's going to be different, but it's not. All you need to know is that some guy and some girl are getting married, and they seem to be a trailer trash couple that wants some sort of big fat redneck wedding (as if there aren't enough of those in America), then OOOH, ZOMBIES, then guns, then a bunch of fat old guys acting like bad-asses, then wham. It's over, and you're just kind of left telling yourself, "oh God, I could have been using that hour to feed the needy or volunteer at an animal shelter or do something productive instead of wasting my time with this." Even if it is an indie film, even if the director had no money or a solid cast, that doesn't excuse the fact that it's just some mediocre gory film that tries to get its thrills solely from shock value.

• Not Worth The Time

  I was one of the unfortunate ones to attend the screening for this movie. It's bland, unoriginal, and lacking in so many areas. It has mad potential and could probably be perfected by another director and cast, but this time around, it's not worth investing your time in. Frankly, I think it's up there with The Room in the big bad list of awful movies. Not saying you shouldn't listen to other critics, but they're probably involved with the movie in some way if they're saying anything positive about it. Honestly, I don't think there's any other way to make any sort of valid defense for this movie. It's not for the die hard cinema fanatic, nor the casual moviegoer. Do yourself a favor and avoid it in the future.
