ALIEN DEAD deserves more credit...,
By
This review is from: ALIEN DEAD - 25TH ANNIVERSARYEDITION (DVD)
I bought this dvd and was completely surprised! I was not expecting anything at all, due to the other reviews I read about this movie. This movies plot was very interesting and somewhat similar to ZOMBIE LAKE, but a lot better. Basically comes down to water zombies. I was completely surprised with the intro to the film and the really cool and subtle soundtrack. The acting lacks a lot, but that actually makes it more fun to watch. For the budget it had the zombies actually look really cool.

For Bad Film Lovers Only! A "How-not-to"...,
By jimmy_rants@yahoo (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ALIEN DEAD - 25TH ANNIVERSARYEDITION (DVD)
Very bad, even for the price. I heard Fred Olen Ray spent $12,000 on this film and I'd like to audit his bookkeeping records because this does not even look like a $12,000 film. There is a lot of badly done day-for-night shooting, the edits are choppy and uneven, the FX and sound are subpar by any standard..
I am a big fan of low budget videos and Fred Olen Ray.This is not without enjoyment,though more of a learning tool than a so bad its good classic..

Let Down,

This review is from: ALIEN DEAD - 25TH ANNIVERSARYEDITION (DVD)
Normally I am a big fan of cheap, cheesy 1970s horror films, especially if they take place in swamps and star aging has-beens. So you'd think I'd love this film. Nope. For one thing it is too self-conscious: it actually TRIES to be funny but isn't. For another thing, whatever redeeming qualities the first half of the film may have, by the time you get to the second half it is so repetitious that it become extremely plodding. And there is no payoff at the ending because THE FILM HAS NO ENDING! Somehow Ray forgot to give the film either any sense of resolution or some sort of shock. I'd settle for even for a poorly done shock. But no, the film just ends when it could have similarly ended after the first 25 minutes.
Even worse, the prologue Ray added to the beginning of the movie some time after he finished filming and everyone had gone home manages to make the non-ending even more of a non-ending. Now THAT was an accomplishment!
