Bio-Zombie (1998)
1/10
Simply not a good movie.
30 September 2002
I actually purchased this DVD (complete with alternate ending) based upon the other reviews that are listed here. Whoops...

The best way to describe it would be to say that it is like a high school film class production with no scare value and effects that are not very special. I know... I know... the budget must have been very small - at least I can only assume this. However, this doesn't explain the endless amounts of boring dialogue that do nothing to forward the plot and winds up filling space between dull zombie attacks.

There are comparisons listed in this review section that say that this movie is the Hong Kong Return of the Living Dead, or worse, Dawn of the Dead. Not in my opinion. Not even close.

Don't get me wrong. There were some funny parts to this movie, but nothing that would merit it being more than a 20 minute edited version. Sure the lack of a budget may have made makeup effects hard, but not impossible - reference the first Evil Dead movie.

If you are looking for Asian zombie action, you may want to try something like Shiryour gari (Junk.) This one is from Japan, and is not spectacular, but is mindless zombie fun. Unfortunately, Bio-Zombie is just mindless.
