Review of Death Metal Zombies

Death Metal Zombies - 1995 (This Film Rates a C ) A super low budget shot on video film with death metal head zombies PLUS a crazed slasher in a Richard Nixon mask as a side story. Its dedicated to Kurt Cobain (end credits). A dorky metal head enters a contest to win a cassette from the band Living Corpse. It contains an exclusive song called "Zombified" that only he will own. After winning he and some friends find that the exclusive song is not so innocent. Everyone who listens turns to zombies. To reverse the curse the song needs to be played backwards but country music "corrodes their brains" and temporarily slows them down. Eventually the curse is broken. Flash forward 10 years later and the cassette is refound and replayed as a mp3 file by a familiar face. There are brawls in the woods, fire jumping, waterbeds, long hair, metal t-shirts, acid washed jeans, BOOBS and a lot of things that make no sense. Its all horrible; the acting, dialogue and script are the worst I have seen/heard. Like the worst. (7 min mark, 14 min mark, 37 min mark, 1 hour 1 min mark). The gore is laughable but is meant to be funny. It's not anything really extensive. The 1990's death metal soundtrack is great even if you are not a fan of the genre. It fits perfectly and is the main highlight of the film especially the live material (17 min mark). It covers for so many of the film's inadequacies, especially lines like: "Hey, I got crabs" and "pusswad". If you know what you are getting into here then it isn't so bad, but it is complete trash and only worth watching for the "everything 90's metal".
