Lured in by the good reviews I made the mistake of expecting anything from this movie. It disappointed at every turn. From campy costumes to terrible acting, this could have almost been funny... except it wasn't that either.
The plot is super basic, character development non-existent, and the stereotypes abound.
Highlights include the predictable "double double cross", the "Daisy Duke Duo" that need protecting at every turn, despite being "super tough chicks", and the "Chinese kid sidekick" stereotype...only, he isn't a kid and not much of a sidekick really, just sort of...there. I also really need to invest in steampunk goggles because they will be all the rage Post-apocalypse! Forget ammo, preppers need to stock up on goggles!
Favourite moment was a tie between when the Daisy Duke Duo's dad is killed in front of them - while they hold a shotgun and a shovel - and the shock of the double-crossing militia leader when he is (predictably) also double crossed by the vampires. By "favourite", I mean almost funny enough to make up for the rest of this awful movie, but actually... no.
Not sure what movie the 8/9/10 raters were watching, but it definitely wasn't this one.
2 stars. Only because the Daisy Duke Dad Death Scene was actually funny enough that I chortled slightly.
