Redneck Zombies (1989 Video)
4/10
Where's the gore?
14 March 2007
I love cheesy, gory, horror-comedies from the 80's, but i gotta say i was disappointed with REDNECK ZOMBIES. With a plot about toxic blood thirsty undead rednecks and a cover that boasts "a goremeister's delight" that "really delivers the goods" and "a back-woods bloodbath that'll tickle your funny bone, then rip it out," this movie sounded really promising. I got into this movie expecting it to be up there with TOXIC AVENGER (one of my all time favorites), and ended up finding it pretty lame. I knew it would be extremely cheap (and believe me it's about as cheap as it gets) and that doesn't bother me at all. The movie is really funny at times too (it's almost worth watching just for the incredibly hysterical scene involving a black soldier listening to a religious radio program...but i won't give it away); there is also a hilarious scene involving some boobies, but where the hell is the gore? It might be worth watching if viewed merely as a comedy but gore hounds like myself will be unsatisfied. If you wanna watch an extremely cheap shot on video zombie flick that delivers the goods check out FLESHEATER instead, and for those who like comedy with their slime and gore i'd recommend these far superior titles instead: THE TOXIC AVENGER, CLASS OF NUKE 'EM HIGH, Hollywood CHAINSAW HOOKERS, and STREET TRASH (all favorites of mine)
