This cowflop is easily the worst, moost pathetic attempt of a film that I have ever seen - and MooCow has seen 'em all. The lowest of low-grade production ranks with Manos, the Hands of Fate, and Crater Lake Monster. For example, there is almost no dialogue during any "action" sequences; this is because they obviously could not afford to use mobile microphones, and what little dialogue there is when people are moving is dubbed in. The fx are laughable and idiotic; one SWAT team member (there are only two) is equiped with a plastic gun and an apron. Some of the cheesiest incidental moosic you'll ever hear is a constant, annoying presence. The acting is almost incidental, and probably could not be produced from this group even at gun point. The "zombies" are cheap and boring, and nothing interesting happens at all. This turkey grinds on and on and on and on. It's moovies like this that make Edward D. Wood Jr. look like the cinema genius he thought he was. I think a kindergarden production would have moore professional production, acting, and directing. MooCow says if you spend moolah on this turd I have a few acres of swampland in Moo Jersey to sell you... :=8P
