For all of you zombie movie fanatics, like me, who are looking to add rare, foreign and unique zombie movies to your collection: I would seriously pass on this movie. I purchased this movie based off the coment on the cover "Night of the living dead meets Attack of the killer tomatoes." Um...I don't think so. First off these are not zombies at all, let alone Romero's flesh eating back-from-the-dead zombies. If anything it's more like...Invasion of the body snatchers meets some campy T&A movie. Bascially a seductress moves into a small town wanting to open up a hair removal wax treatment spa. After the customers are exposed to the hair removal wax treatment they become sex crazed and seek out to bring others to the spa. The hero of the movie is a female lingerie store owner, and the villianess is always wearing something seductive. It is kind of a funny T&A comedy, but definetly not a zombie movie.

What a goofy movie. And the director's commentary is even funnier. A bunch of hairless zombies on motorcycles turn a small town into sex-crazed zombies?! I don't know if I've ever seen anything quite so ... original. I got a chance to see it in a theatre awhile back and thought it was funny then, but a buddy of mine who worked on the post production sound let me watch the DVD and listen to the commentary - it should be required listening for any filmmaker. Okay, and the girls are kinda cute in this movie too (especially some of the topless ones). Drags a little here and there, but...I liked it!

the only reason this is getting 2 stars is because it really is amusing to watch, but every aspect of this movie is *bad.* From the plot to the writing to the acting, to the soundtrack. Its the second-worst movie I've ever seen next to South Beach Academy. Still, it's worth seeing once, just to laugh at it.

Actually this is the best movie I've ever seen. Don't judge a movie why its cover. The problem with mainstream Hollywood is that you never hear about the better films of the year. This is one of those you probably never heard about but...now you have. Interesting.
