Editorial Reviews

Movie description Writer-director Conor McMahon attempts a one-man Irish horror movie revival with his genuinely frightening and purposely hilarious low-budget zombie film DEAD MEAT. While driving through the rural Irish countryside, Spanish tourists Helena (Marian Araujo) and Martin (David Ryan) literally stumble upon a legion of flesh-eating zombies created by a mutated strain of mad-cow disease. It isn't long before Martin himself succumbs to zombification, leaving Helena to partner with local gravedigger Desmond (David Mallard) to fight off the army of undead with creatively zany techniques involving everything from shovels to vacuum cleaners. Balancing dark humor with moody atmospherics and ample doses of gore, DEAD MEAT deftly straddles the line between the self-conscious parody of SHAUN OF THE DEAD and the serious horror traditions of George Romero and Sam Raimi for a good old-fashioned zombie flick destined to become an instant cult classic. Credits Producer: Edward King Cast: David Mallard, Eoin Whelan

Who knew that Ireland would come up with a funny low budget zombie flick I certainly didn't. The directing was brilliant and the film was like an homage or tribute to Romero's living dead trillogy, chaos ensues across the country when a rare strain of mad cow disease turns people into flesh-eating zombies. I thought that the small zombified kids at the birthday party was a nice touch and there were alot of other great scenes like that which makes this film uniqe and different from the other straight to video garbage that just ends up being the same over and over again. I highly recommend this film and two thumbs up!.

Old school fx, at least 6 or 7 beheadings, dudes with really thick Irish accents chopping zombies up with shovels. One lady even gets eaten by a crazy cow... If you like zombie movies what more could you want?

MAD COWS AND ZOMBIES!!! Finally a Zombie Movie Done Right! I Would place this in the Top 3 Zombie Movies from the past few years (...or ever for that matter...) right up there with "UNDEAD" and "SEAN OF THE DEAD". Non-Stop Zombie action from start to finish, Cool Zombies and Lots of Them (although not as cool as the zombies in UNDEAD) Plenty of Gore (I don't think I have ever seen as many be-headings in one zombie film...) and Just the right amount of Humor! The Vacuum cleaner scene will go down in Zombie History!!! The Final Zombie Horde scene is Great, and just the way a Zombie film should be. Good Story, Excellent Acting by all (the old cursing Irishman is hilarious!) Good Pace and a heck of a Good Time watching! As soon as I was done watching it, I watched it a second time. This will Defenetly become a Favorite with Zombie Fans! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - MUST HAVE IN YOUR ZOMBIE DVD COLLECTION!!!
