Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Sadly Over-hyped
Pretty Good
Please don't spend money on this.
Just one of the worst horror movies I have ever seen! I don't even understand why my fellow school mates made me watch it. The movie totally suffers a lack of story and the nasty gory violence is irreasonable and absolutely not argumented for with a story. Just one more thing for the director of this fine piece of (no bad words on the IMDb, but you get the point): Learn to make real movies (hint: Just a little bit of a story would be a start) No wonder the director is not known for much else than a few short films and this nonsense. You know, people said Ed Wood was the world's worst director, but I think the director of this film, and probably also other bad horror blood and gore movies, are literately THE WORST OF THE WORST!
Helena (Marian Araujo) and her boyfriend Martin (David Ryan) are traveling in the Irish Country for the weekend. When they hit an man by accident on their car but what seems to be accident, this man attacked them and he bite Martin in the neck. After Martin kills this crazed man, Martin becomes increasingly weak. Helena tries to find help for her boyfriend but suddenly he attacks her. While Helena is running for her help, she finds help from a mysterious gravedigger Desmond (David Muyllaert). Helena finds out from Desmond that it all started with some several farmers are been serving dead meat to the call. Which the meat is been infected with an Mad Cow Disease. When these cows get sick, they bite and kill several adults by infecting them. Which they become mindless zombies and affecting others in the country side of Leitrim, Ireland.Written and Directed by Conor McMahon made an decent, somewhat imaginative low-budget effort horror film. I read many reviews of this film saying this is a Horror/Comedy. But i don't see the comedy in this movie but it certainly tries hard. Dark Comedy element failed in this picture, which i thought, it has many unintentional funny moments. Also the make-up effects are amateurish at best but i felt the digital video camera work in the film by Andrew Legge is good, however. Perphas what's truly missing in this effort is the lack of real scares.DVD has an fine anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) transfer and an good Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. DVD also includes an behind the scenes featurette, an short film titled "The Braineater" and trailer. There's decent performances by Araujo and Muyllaert but don't quite feel something for these characters. Although the premise is good, since in the old days Farmers did feed dead meat to their cows. Which it's illegal now, which Farmers are not supposed to do. The movie is watchable but it's hurt by failed black comedy and an unsatisfying conclusion. Although, Horror Fans will find some enjoyment here. (***/*****).
Low-budget zombieflicks are actually my biggest passion by the moment. I like the dirty feeling about them, and the fact that the movie was made by fans & for fans. Dead Meat is perfect example. Conor McMahon gotta be inspired by Peter Jackson. Seriously, you can see the influences from space! The comedy from Bad Taste, the feeling from Bad Taste, the gore from Bad Taste and so on... The Camera-work thus remind me about Evil Dead though, not something made by Peter Jackson, and i like that. A lot. Now you may say "Fuck that, where's the real meat of the film?!" and don't you worry, the special FX is there. Oh it's there alright. What we have here is a lot of decapitations, a brain sucked out by a freaking vacuum cleaner, some neat gut-munching, a shovel stuck in a zombie's stomach which follows hilarious consequenses. And the zombies? They are nasty. Dead nasty. They are at that point of decay when the skin starts falling of. In other words, the make-up is phenomenal! I'm not gonna be a jerk and repeat the plot like a thousands of other reviewers has done. You can read the plot on hundreds of sites. Don't have a cow, man. Oh yeah, that reminded me, there are zombiecows in this movie. Get on your knees and pray (or milk), dirtbag!
The tourist Helena (Marián Araújo) and her mate Martin (David Ryan) are traveling by car through the County of Leitrim, Ireland, when Martin hits a man. He brings the body to his car, and the corpse returns to live and bites him. Helena looks for help in a cottage and is attacked inclusive by Martin. Sooner she realizes that the place is infested of zombies. She meets the gravedigger Desmond (David Muyllaert) and they cross the countryside trying to find a safe place. They meet another couple and they become aware that the mad cow disease has infected humans transforming them in living dead."Dead Meat" is a sort of Irish remake of "Night of the Living Dead". Gore and cult, it works very well, with an excellent camera, frantic in the movements, and great make-up and special effects. In some moments, this trash movie is so bloody that recalls Peter Jackson's "Braindead". My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): "Dead Meat O Banquete dos Zumbis" ("Dead Meat The Banquet of the Zombies")
