Zombieworld

Do not listen to the glowing five+ star reviews. This is extremely stupid and unfunny. It's some kind of idiotic anthology comedy. The best thing to come out of this was someone making a side scrolling beat 'em up out of the Jesus bit. The zombie makeup was atrocious z it looked like burnt eggs. Note to would be film makers. If you are trying to make a comedy it is best to make sure it is actually funny. If you can't make good jokes and sketches do not bother trying. It just makes a bad movie even worse and extremely painful to watch......

The wannabe Shaun of the dead sketch is the worst........

Although it includes some little humor, the quality of this film is far below its sequel, and it is true in all respects.

I knew about this 2015 movie titled "Zombieworld", but I just never had the opportunity to watch it before now in 2023. And given my love and admiration for all things zombie, of course I had to sit down and watch this one.

Well, I hadn't been missing out on a milestone in zombie cinema here, because this was essentially just an anthology of random stories set during a zombie outbreak. And it wasn't exactly anything overly thrilling or exciting that the writers had managed to churn out for the anthology. Sure, it was somewhat watchable, given the fact that it was a zombie anthology, but don't get your hopes up.

I managed to sit through all 71 minutes of "Zombieworld", but I was not overly entertained. And being a zombie fan, this movie hardly tickled me in any of the right places. This is not something I would recommend for zombie fans to rush out and get to watch. Take heed of the low rating that "Zombieworld" has managed to score, there is a reason for that.

The only familiar face on the cast list was Bill Oberst Jr. Not that the acting performances in "Zombieworld" were outstanding or particularly memorable.

Visually then "Zombieworld" was okay. It wasn't top notch and top of the line special effects and zombie make-up, nor was it among the worst of low budget rubbish that I have seen. And truth be told, the effects definitely helped to keep "Zombieworld" afloat.

Watchable for what it was, "Zombieworld" is not something I will return to watch a second time.

My rating of "Zombieworld" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

To be honest, seeing the cover photo, along side with the name, I felt as if this was going to be some low budget. singular movie. But no, to my surprise .. "Zombieworld" turned out to be a fun, glorious zombie anthology winner! Of course, this movie, however had lots of flaws, the fact being this movie being pieced together by Dreadcentral shorts introduced. [ Correct me if I'm wrong ] It had some acting that was actually considerable, not as far, or in respectful aspects believable though; but in a way pieced together and won. Of course, this movie had multiple flaws when it came to seriousness, which this movie isn't meant to be, if any of you haven't figured out already. In the end, though, this anthology horror flick was what it was, it pieced together short films of which were scattered about from multiple directors into one film, each one tying in with dark comedy, gore, and some shocking situations / given visually to us audience.

I found the execution of this movie to be fun, and exciting. The movie decided to make the audience laugh with a constant news set up. A news anchor would constantly act horrible on purpose, just to give the audience a laugh, which was actually quite funny. The movie also executed "Scheduled alerts" of which commercial - like breaks showing zombie killing tutorials, demonstrating throw back horror at it's finest. With all of that being said, the execution WASN'T flawless, but entertaining, succeeding in it's comedy, and entertainment to the audience, all at the same time pleasing the zombie fans.

With all things said for this film, there's not exactly too much else to say of the film. Honestly, if you ask me, this wouldn't particularly be a film EVERYONE would like, depending in the range of the horror fan. This film, is in fact low budget; it dose, however it dose entertain, and keep the audience on they're feet, keeping them in range of dark comedy, horror, thrilling scares, and some dread. All of which leading to a success, making this film pretty freaking awesome for zombie lovers, I recommend it for horror fans looking for a crazy, fun time.

The Plot

There is nowhere to hide...nowhere to run...the Zombie Apocalypse has come, and our world now belongs to the dead! From Ireland, Canada, Australia, Europe and all over the U.S., the bone-chilling news reports tell the same gruesome tale - walking corpses terrorize and devour the living.

Only a few desperate humans find the courage to stand and fight for their last chance at survival.

But the hordes of undead keep coming, and there's only one thing on the menu - us.

Starts off very promising. In fact the beginning appears to be a film with substantial budget. There's plenty of action and really good special effects.

It's a weird movie. Sort like Monty Python on speed. It's sort of allover the place like a sketch comedy. Some of the CGI special effects are good and the pace is fast.

The Spanish Jesus is very strange. More blood than you've ever seen.

These sorts of films wear thin after a while and running at over 100 minutes is really too long.

Watch it if you have the time. But don't expect much.
