I randomly saw this on ebay and I thought, "Hey, looks quite well produced from the cover jacket" and Robert Englund stars, of Freddy Kruger fame from 'Nightmare On Elm Street' and 'V', (his most compelling performance for me as an Extra-terrestrial invader torn between obeying orders and helping the humans to escape capture by his fellow reptillian leaders - another must see), so I thought it has to be worth watching. Naturally the actresses - and they were all cast and acted superbly - were purely a secondary concern, being mainly attracted to the storyline and the deep message the movie attempts to convey. I forget what it was but it's really important so buy the dvd, ok! Seriously, this has some of the best political satire (or is it commentary?) I've seen. Kind of along the lines of '28 Days Later' mixed with 'V for Vendetta' - yet other must see movies but with philosophical themes throughout, for those with a higher than average I.Q. This one has something for everyone (over 18) and make-up and animatronics to satisfy Stan Winston fans (who I thought must have done the robotics), this is better than you could imagine it could be for this type of 'subject matter', shall we say?! By blending two overtly 'base' genres (i.e. nudity and gratuitous bloody violence) and adding a sound politically honest storyline as the pretext for all that follows, director Jay Lee pulled off more than limbs and heads; this should become a cult classic for generations to come! Speaking of which, anyone expecting to see nothing but fully naked women, will be slightly disappointed, not that there aren't any, it's just that unless you get off on blood spattered faces and breasts, except at the beginning it all gets predictably 'messy', which doesn't turn me on, thankfully! The story is so fast paced and compelling that it's not really appropriate to be aroused by it. One of the best films I've seen, certainly of this genre. Parts of it could have been produced by Quentin Tarantino, they were that good. I watched it twice straight through, firstly with normal sound and then with commentary which I've only ever done with 'Chopper' and maybe 'Saving Private Ryan', two other absolute must sees if you like gritty reality based movies with obvious liberties taken for dramatic effect. As the cover of 'Chopper' states, "The truth, the half truth and nothing like the truth. Zombie Strippers is worth watching just for the 40-50 or so minutes of deleted scenes as it includes an uncannily well acted homage to Bill Duke's character in 'Predator' when he does his 'respects and revenge monologue'. Unfortunately it was edited out, presumably as it was just too good a performance and was too easily recognisable for what it was, which apart from the script, just wouldn't fit in with the rest of the film's more upbeat tempo. Hopefully it will land the actor more work though, as he must have spent some considerable time perfecting it. Do yourself a favour and buy this now; you could not possibly regret it unless you're a complete Zombie yourself! 10/10Read full review
I decided to buy Zombie Strippers because I have an enduring fascination for Zombie and Vampire films and stories. Also because a friend had watched it over the Christmas period (Ho, ho ho, stop gnawing my leg!!!) and said it was worth watching. I am not overly critical of Zombie films and horror films generally because i don't watch them to be challenged just to be entertained, though I often find something to think about in almost everything. Sore point with my family ;). This film I didn't really enjoy however, for a number of reasons: 1. The story was boring, which disappointed me after a really imaginative beginning with a satirical political context. 2. The acting was beyond the 'hammy' required for dark comedy. I don't think anyone came out of it very well. 3. It didn't make me laugh at all. Again a disappointment. 4. What it did was to make me think about the banal but sinister way women are objectified (which I think was probably intentional on the part of the film-makers). I wouldn't recommend it to anyone really, except those who want to see naked enhanced women. Next stop for me? Zombieland :)Read full review
this film is a blast if your looking for a comedy i wouldn't class it as a horror it will definately become a cult classic, what the strippers do with the snooker balls is nobody business watch it you will see what i mean overall it is a great film weather you like comedy or horror and definately worth purchasing
