Bloodlust Zombies (2011)

That was an excellent one.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

What to say, what to say. Well, first off, the acting sucks more than a fire engine pumphouse. The lighting needs to be seriously evaluated. The special effects are worse than in that three dollar video game for your Nintendo DS you bought last year. The scenes jump around sporadically and it is extremely hard to tell what is going on. The main character, Alexis Texas, has so little screen time (even though it's both really good and really bad), you would not even think she was the main character. The storyline has a fair idea and a mild approach to the setting.A few good points: 1.) Alexis Texas is super super hot. A few exotic scenes are displayed with her, likely for rating purposes, that are actually quite humorous. She is also a total bad-@$$ when fighting zombies with an ax. 2.) The hilariousness of it all. The special effects are entirely worthless yet so comical you cannot help but laugh at them. There are parts that make you laugh your @$$ off. I myself was busting out ROTFLOL, if you catch my drift. The parts that were meant to be funny sucked so much they caught a giggle. The scenes without humour actually ended up being funny.But then it suddenly ends. Classic, cheesy ending with an Alfred Hitchcock twist (kind like "The Birds). A rate it 10 out of 10 just because it made me laugh and tried hard to fail (succeeding to fail means failing at failing to succeed to fail?) So yeah. Very short, very pointless, very VERY low budget. Go watch if you need dumb humour and are 18+ years old. Lots of Tig Ol' Bitties. (There's a reason Alexis Texas is a pr0n star.)

everyone is so ready to bash this zombie film. are they looking for the next Titanic? comon, it's a B-film. One location, b-actors, best-equipment-they-can-get for their budget, and a beautiful pornstar. this was on Netflix instant streaming so when i selected, i knew i was watching a low-budget comedy horror film. I watched it with a smile on my face ready to laugh or be amused. i didn't know who Alexis was, but did some research, and now i know. i have to admit, there were some scenes where she did a good job acting. Some scenes, not so much, but it was the script that asked too much from her. I think she will be a good actress over time, with clothes on. the other actors did the best they could to deliver comedy in a scary situation, that's all. death doesn't matter, comedy does. okay, so there wasn't much to the story, but some of the writing, i have to admit, was entertaining, like the shoot out between the sleezy guy and temp girl. so comon people, just enjoy fun mindless entertainment and not demand Gladiator. And comon, you got to see Alexis!

Judging this thing at film standards would be like blaming a duck for not knowing second degree equations or like judging Mr. Spielberg's work in horticulture.I am sure that the cast and the crew are all around great guys in their personal lives, but when it comes down to film they are incompetent. If you chop it into small web-isodes, this "film" wouldn't even get thumbs up as a weekly podcast on YT.Let's see: Script - appalling; Acting - appalling; Lightning - appalling; Visual and Special Effects - appalling, Editing - Oh my God; Music - appalling; Sound Design - almost nonexistent.The main star of the movie, Alexis Texas, has fewer scenes than other supporting cast members, which is ridiculous to say the least. It is also a shame because she has that "je ne sais quoi" quality about her.Having said that, it is very easy to bash in pixels and diminish someone's work and though I felt that it would deserve a harsh review, I changed my mind and here is why I decided to write the most positive criticism I can about this "film"..I sat and watched heroically throughout the entire thing and there were moments where I actually burst into uncontrollable laughter because all the deliberately funny scenes were completely lacking any amusement and the more serious scenes were actually creating involuntary humor through really bad acting and writing. It is sad really, and I feel bad for laughing because the director who is also the writer was trying hard to convey totally different emotions, but had no clue on how to do it. Working my way through the shear nonsense that fills this "film" and bypassing the enormity of the "action", I could faintly distinct and resonate with few very nice and grand ideas that the director tried to tackle. Of course he failed miserably but skill is something you gain mostly by failing not by winning. It is meaningless to go on trying to find other constructive criticism to write about this "movie", because there is nothing else good in it, as the rest is just a big pile of wasted film.I've seen a lot of very bad movies that have no redeeming qualities that deserve bad reviews, but in this case I really felt that there was -at least at some point- a good will and a sincere spirit to create something good and enjoyable. Unfortunately, in the way that it exists today, Bloodlust Zombies cannot be considered more than a draft cut of a B flick.If it makes any sense, I recommend this film only to those that like to gather among friends and comment B(ad) movies for some genuine giggles, or to those more serious persons who have enough patience necessary to find and glimpse a beautiful idea drowned in an ocean of junk.Call me crazy but here is ten out of ten stars from me only for encouragement and a faint hope of something better to come in the next years from the same director.

I understand the reason for $10.000 dollar films and the market for dollar rentals. This is America and it's your right to spend the dollar if you choose to. The market for super cheap films to stuff the machines sprouting across the nation is growing at an alarming rate. The writing here in this film is very, very bad and the acting matches it, in that respect they go together well. The cutting of scenes from a subject and or character in and out are frustrating. I am not a hater of low budget productions, i have enjoyed quite a few of them and yes some films are of course meant to be campy or not sincere to the art of the film industry but there are limits. Save your money..
