Send us a text OK so to recap – DEAD SEASON 2012, we had Elvis and TWEETER meeting up during the zombie apocalypse and arriving on the small Caribbean island of DE SANTOS or something along those lines, getting a boat from florida. Now the write ups said there was a murderous cult, WRONG! And the pair had to fight for their lives daily. WRONG! It was 16 people, 13 guys led by Call of Duty silver fox Curt, 2 prostitutes and Curts daughter rachel. The guys were all generic thug types who don’t ...

Episode 282: Dead Season (2012)
Send us a text And so… onto this, a zombie movie, another new offering from Amazon, Dead Season… well when I say new it is 2012, but I haven’t see it on offer before. And it has a sequel Decade of the Dead which has a very similar plot and Tweeter. appears in both 4.6/10 on IMDB which isn’t awful. On Amazon the description is… during a zombie outbreak, two strangers find themselves stranded on a remote island with an aggressive cult. or Elvis and Tweeter escape a zombie catastrophe and land o...

Now, you may think that Indonesia would become country #40 for us, but no, we have seen an Indonesian zombie movie already in Zeta, The Dead Awaken which was okay to be fair.

Episode 280: Newtopia (parts 5 to 8)
Send us a text The better half of the series if you ask me and we are back with Young-Joo and a chainsaw working her way through subterranean Seoul, as Jae-Yoon and his squad mates descend the tower. I actually really liked how she was out and about and then trying to get across the city, juxtaposed with him just trying to get out of his building from the roof to the street. There are some great kills, a lot of dramatic sequences and scenes that would fit in any Korean zombie drama, and...

Then we get Peninsula, Kingdom, Zombieverse and Happiness and this, Newtopia. 2025, on Amazon, telling the story of a young couple Young-Joo and Jae-Yoon, an office girl and a soldier as the zombie apocalypse takes hold of Seoul. It is very entertaining, 8 parts, just under an hour per episode, however, In Ho is far far t...

Episode 277: The Video Dead (1987)
Send us a text Simple premise. A cursed TV that shows only one movie, the very 1970s style Romero-eque Zombie Blood Nightmare is in fact a portal. A very 1980s plot device. the zombies from the movie come out of it and rampage a rural community, including TEMU Eric Stoltz Rocky Duvall as Jeff, his sister Zoe and their neighbour April. The acting is awful, there are some cliche elements such as disposing of a hand in the garbage disposal, 1980s lightning indoors effects and a lot of dry ...

Episode 276: Forgive Us All (2025)
Send us a text Despite Richard Roxburgh, Lily Sullivan and Callan Mulvany, the beautiful New Zealand landscape and, at times, very Lord of the Rings, music, this was annoying… slow, obvious and ultimately unoriginal and disappointing… I have seen all the elements of this movie before in one form or another. An antipodean western, I guessed how people died, we have no real explanation why Mulvaney was such a dick. It was just pretty, but slow and dull. We had a child infected, then...

Episode 275: Contracted: Phase 2
Send us a text Contracted has always been on the Z list, but I have been avoiding it as body horror isn’t really my thing. But given we are ploughing through 2025 at a rate of knots I thought I would watch both contracted and the sequel. Looking on amazon I could only find the sequel and part one was no longer on TUBI so, SOL I decided to watch the sequel first, with the idea of getting to the original at some point. In part two the story follows the story of Samantha who suffers from a myste...

Send us a text In a post-apocalyptic wasteland a group of scientists are rescued by a military ops team so they can fight zombies for control of the planet. Sounds shit. I'm in. 1.9/10 on IMDB now that is something, this could be a challenger to bottom of the barrel. From an IMDB review - Everything is poor in this movie: story, screenplay, dialogs, direction, performances, lighting, special effects, camera, fighting choreography, location and sets, nothing works. Richard Grieco resembles Mic...

In this episode, I want to start by talking about the Neighbours Halloween special, Neighbours versus Zombies, 5 episodes of 6 minutes or so, equating to a normal half an hour episode of the popular Australian soap opera. And this was Michael’s recommendation. It was entertaining, they didn’t ham it up,...

If you hated everything since End Game then you will hate this. It is Ironheart, and Ms Marvel and the girl from Hawkeye, plus a few comedy characters, a confusing Moon Knight/Blade combination, Valkyrie, although she looked more like Lady Sif.

Much like the Dexter Fletcher Dead Man Walking aka Autumn is it based on a novel by novelists in my zombie community. 93 minutes. 2025. Looks shit. He is now saying that he recommended we skip it, he did not recommend that we watch it. The trailer is a scene where two floppy hair teens with pistols fail to fight off a basic zombie. One is blond one has brown hair and I put this off for over a wee...

I went into it with high hopes for the 2009 Canadian movie starring Dexter Fletcher and David Carridine, and zero hopes for the 2005 maximum security prison lockdown story. How wrong can a man be? Ok, so neither was great. The 2005 movie tells the story of a guy who kills 4 friends with a shotgun because they are clearly infected with a biotoxin. He is sent to maximum security prison where this becomes a prison movie. Asshol...
