The Zombinator (2012)

You won't be disappointed!

Wonderful character development!

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

I picked up this DVD at a local library. The jacket cover mentioned Youngstown, Ohio, and as I am from there, I wanted to see if it was indeed filmed in Youngstown. As it turns out it was, showing several localities I recognized. Unfortunately, there was no plot, the dialogue was not scripted, and scenes appeared to be randomly pieced together. On the plus side there were a few funny moments, including zombies being more interested in getting into a pizza place than attacking those outside (maybe they wanted a pie), the "kids" telling the Zombinator that he looked like the Terminator, and the "kids" telling those filming to stop filming (if only they had listened). Unfortunately, a few funny moments do not make a movie. I was surprised that something this bad was even released. It probably would have been more interesting if I had filmed myself painting my house. Maybe the producers thought they could sell the DVD to the cast members and their families.

Okay, it's time to rip this steamer to pieces... While I am a huge fan of the zombie genre, this unmitigated disaster made me want to seek damages. I will never get this time back! From the insane overacting, the plot that wasn't, and the titular character ( a black trench coat clad Blade clone) who appears for about 30 seconds in the entire film, this is 85 minutes of pure horrible.I mean, you can't even make fun of it, it would be like slapping a blind kid. So if you feel the need to cause yourself pain, just drive nails into your forehead. It would be less painful and far more entertaining for those around you than subjecting yourself to this pile of crap.

I tried to watch this movie all the way through. I never made it all the way through for the lack of caring for ANY of the characters. No one in this movie is memorable as an actor, not even Patrick Kilpatrick. I fast forwarded through endless dialogue to see if anything ever happened, it did not. The storyline was an absolute mess. Boring, absolutely boring. There was no entertainment value in this movie at all. Usually I can find someone or something to take away for future reference. This movie left me wondering if I should ever take a chance on low budget indie flicks. You should do yourself a favor and make sure you do not rent this movie..ever.

This had a 7.5 rating so being a fan of the zombie genre I decided to rent it. This was possibly the worst decision I ever made. The zombies are slow and not even scary, the cast are so irritating I find myself rooting for the zombies. The dialogue is ludicrous and the actors just scream and shout over each other. This is possibly the worst zombie film I have ever witnessed. Also it's filmed in that camcorder style and also in semi darkness. You would think that would add an edge to the whole endeavour but it doesn't, it just makes you wonder what the hell is going on all the time. My advice: don't bother with this garbage.
