So I recently did my yearly Zombie-thon movie marathon, it’s basically an excuse for me to get together with friends, drink too much alcohol and watch really bad zombie movies. I figured since I’m wrapping up tomorrows entry tonight I’d give you a review of two of this years cinematic “gems”. If your looking for entertainment for the big night for God’s sake stay the hell away from these stinkers!! But if your looking for background noise to have on while your handing out candy to the kiddies then these would be perfect, well one of them would be anyway.
You know the name pretty much says it all for this one. Zombies on a plane. Of the two I’m gonna review this one is definitely the superior one but honestly that’s not saying a whole lot, like I said I find intentionally bad movies and this one is bad!! It’s a good bad though, I mean it’s not gonna win any awards by any means but if your looking for good background noise/filler this is it!
Okay, here’s the plot, these two scientists bring a third scientists dead wife back to life. They store her in a cryogenic box and put her on a commuter plane to Paris. Why a commuter flight? It’s because these are bad scientists who brought back the wife using an illegal experimental drug! Why are they flying to Paris? I don’t know I missed that part. They did somehow convince the airline into letting an armed guard in a bio-suit onto the plane to guard said box though!
I’m not gonna give away too much more of the plot because A) I don’t want to ruin it for anyone who might want to see it and B) I had slammed like six beers and three margaritas on an empty stomach by this point so I don’t remember just a whole lot about it. The one thing about Flight of the Living Dead is it stars this guy.
Recognize him? I’m sure you do, he’s been in a crap load of movies, but I betcha don’t know his name do you? It’s okay if you don’t, I didn’t until I looked him up. His names Erick Avari, so now when some homicidal maniac is holding a gun to your head and points to his picture and asks you his name you can tell him and save your own life!!
The other movie we subjected ourselves to was this one.
What can I say about this one? Wait let me rephrase that, what can I say about this one that’s good? Let me thing about that for a second…..still thinking……I could say….no that was the other movie. Nope can’t say anything good about this one at all.
The plot of this one…you know what screw it, here’s what IMDB says about it. “Eighty Two years ago a viral outbreak turned three quarters of the world population into the walking dead. Now, Bounty Hunters are humanity’s only salvation.” Sounds pretty good right? That’s what I thought, turns out we were both wrong.
This was produced by Nott Entertainment, and to be honest that’s about the most truthful thing in this movie. It’s that bad! The make up is like something you could throw together at a Spirit store or at a Party City. The acting….I’ve seen better acting in a porno, or at least that’s what my friend said, I don’t watch porn. You believe me don’t you? There are just so many bad things about this movie it’s not funny, not even funny in a good way! So I guess what I’m saying is rent this puppy if you dare but if you do know it’s really, really bad!
Too bad. The poster for The Quick and Undead looked good. Yeah, I judge movies by their cover! 😛
I do too, that’s why I got this one! Well that and the plot.
The Quick and the Undead?
I thought only porn used bad versions of real movies as titles. But you wouldnt know that, right?
But this is the bad version of a real movie! The Quick and the Dead with Sharon Stone, Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio! But your right about me not knowing about porn titles, I don’t know nothing about no porn!! 😀
