Buck Wild (2013)

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Regardless of the naysayers about the movie it is awesome! Jarrod Pistilli was hilarious as well as Tyler Glodt! We have watched the movie repeatedly, so much that our kids say the word before it shows the scene. My four year old son gets a kick out of the beginning. It is the best zombie movie I have seen. It doesn't have to be all about the zombies to be a good movie. I am a very avid movie watcher and there were some movies full of zombies from the beginning and end up with the same thing. This is a little bit of a sudden twist. I have to be the first to know what kind of a movie it is to let my kiddos watch it with us. A few curses but nothing too crazy. Watch the movie and find out more! I love it and so does my family.

The "plot"A hunting vacation goes horribly awry for 4 friends after they accidentally shoot the lease's land owner.I know this was supposed to be a comedy spoofy movie but there really isn't much humor. Just bits and pieces that make no sense.For example the movie starts with the tart daughter having sex in the tulips. Daddy seems to kill the BF (never quite sure about that) and then he goes in the shed and is attacked by what looks like a zombie chubracabra.Cut to next scene and the dad is fine and the movie starts.Nothing makes sense, which might be OK if there was actually some funny moments or if the direction was tight.It's not. It's a meandering movie that is confusing and horrible.The acting is passable. The story is not.

"Buck Wild" is not really amongst the better of zombie movies that I have seen. With that said, then it should also be said that there are far worse zombie movies out there on the market. And for a production of this caliber, then "Buck Wild" actually fared adequately, however, the movie just failed to be outstanding.Storywise, then "Buck Wild" doesn't really offer anything overly new to the zombie genre, nor does it really deliver fully on the various aspects that director Tyler Glodt were attempting to accomplish with this movie.The zombies were adequate, although don't expect shambling decaying corpses here, as it is a batch of freshly reanimated corpses that are found here throughout the movie. Whatever meager effects that were used in the movie were adequate as well, though the movie really didn't have that much blood and gore.There are some attempts at comedy throughout the movie, but none that really managed to punch through as the ones in "Shaun of the Dead".Being a zombie aficionado, of course I have to give just about anything even remotely zombiesque a chance; and of course not everything is going to be a masterpiece."Buck Wild" is enjoyable in itself for what it is, just don't set yourself up for something grand.

4 of 10. As slow as zombies are, this film is slower. It takes a long time for the story to kick in. At the beginning, everything seems artificial, concocted. If you skip the first 5-10 minutes, or maybe just watch the prelude than skip to the part with the guy spitting, the film as a whole might be worth a curiosity watch.It tries to be a zombie gross-out comedy, but it generally ends up spanking itself. If you can stand the thought of watching the equivalent of a made-for-TV goofy, non-scary, simply gross zombie film, you'll probably still end up biting your arm off if stuck in a theater with this. Zombie fans can safely wait for the TV release and may simply want to avoid in order to stay zombie fans.
