Quotes
Mrs. Collins: All right girls listen up. This is probably a simple prank. Just to be safe I want you to lock up and stay together.See more »
God I love this movie. Its the type of film you need a few beers to truly enjoy.
If you have a skin full and you check out this movie I guarantee you will love it. You will find yourself quoting non stop such great lines as "Theyre the living' dead doc... we got em plugged in . . juiced up 24 hours a day.... Dr Gilmore!!".
The guy who plays Virgil the hospital's nurse is fantastic in his role. Also the special effects are very ahead of their time.
Makes films like Star Wars look pitiful! Nothing beats the 3d hatchet scene! Trust me, watch this film with an open your mind and it will change your life!!
