Zombie-tastic! This has blood, guts, guns, women, gangsters and zombies! What more do you want. Maybe an English dubbed version?
The story is simple, jewel thieves arrange to meet a suited bunch of gangsters for their pay. Things go haywire when the meeting place turns out to be a shut down military base used to bring the dead back to life. The movie then goes into over drive when the gangsters turn up only to be greeted by flesh hungry Zombies! :thumbsdown:
The fight for survival has begun as the thieves try to get out of the military base alive before the Zombies eat them! * Spoiler * What makes this movie better than most is it seems to have taken the best bits from other zombie/action movies and put them together well. There are too many to list but it does not detract from the flick at all. Also the movie turns from over drive to hyper drive when we find out not all zombie are the same, one is a fast moving intelligent kick ass female zombie!
* Spoiler End * The bad: The movies sexist undertones are a bit over the top, there are a few needless battles of the sexes with the woman get away driver. But maybe things are different where the film was made.
The good: The movie is fast paced unlike some older zombie films. Camera work and effects are good. The two leads are great, the script is witty in places, the action scenes and scenarios are entertaining. And there's also a nice little twist.
If you're expecting Oscar material stay away! If you're a zombie or action fan watch this movie!
Director Atsushi Muroga crazy? Your choice...
