The Worst Film Ever

One of my all time favorites.

As Good As It Gets

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

I'm not stranger to Troma's world - I liked Toxic Avenger, Class of Nuke 'Em High, and Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell, but this film is the pits.For example, it takes over forty minutes to get to the zombies! So we're subjected to all the deliberate bad acting and 'comedy' which in this film is just excruciating.A barrel of toxic waste is lost after a soldier burns his hand on a joint and almost crashes his jeep. A redneck gets a hold of it and ends up giving it to other rednecks as a makeshift still, which contaminates their mash and turns them (and anyone else that drinks it) into zombies. That plot would have held up well but the film continually grinds to a halt due to various other things.For instance, one character in particular is portrayed as a coward (who's also taken acid) and we get endless scenes of this guy screaming and running around. There's also a gay soldier (unfunny), the strange tobacco man, and some zombie kids.There's also plenty of gore in the latter half of the film, but I barely made it to the end. It seemed to me as if the film was double the length it was supposed to be. I know Troma try and do deliberately dreadful films, but in this case they just didn't do that right. Painful.

This movie is the cheapest biggest worst pile of rubbish that I've ever seen.The worst zombie movie ever...and thats saying something. It has nothing to recommend it.Not the actors, the script ( what script?) the effects....nothing.Nada. Nowt.I need more lines so I'm off to find a dictionary to find more words for garbage.Trash.Excrement.Rubbish.Do not waste time on this unless you're desperate...and even then think twice. its bad avoid....it is rubbish stay away...do not watch this suckfest.. I wish I had never seen it and you will too if you don't take my advice and watch it.

Just in case anyone was wondering, this is what true awsomeness looks like. Redneck Zombies is by far, my favorite shot-on-video, Return of the Living Dead/Texas Chainsaw Massacre ripoff-gore-fest in the entire Troma catalog. If anyone ever had fun making a movie, these guys did, which makes me wonder why Pericles didn't direct anything else for so long. I could sit here and type all day about the bottomless toilet of flaws that this film actually is, like most would, but, for the most part, all that was intentional, so now, all we have left is entertainment value, and if that was all that counted in the film industry, then Mr. Lewnes would have an Oscar to his credit. By far the greatest shot-on-video in existence, and I'll even go so far as to say that Redneck Zombies is by far the best non-Kaufman Troma epic available.This steaming pile of Hixploitation magnificence begins with a soldier, in the middle of "God knows where", hauling a barrel of toxic waste, of course it falls off the vehicle while he's getting high. The barrel is, of course, intercepted by a 4,000 pound yokel, with a gun, no brain, and a whole lot of curiosity (played by the legendary Bucky Santini). With the soldier scared off, and the toxic waste now freshly stolen, from the portly yokel, by the Clemson clan, the town of thirteen rednecks can all now be let in on this curious lookin' liquid. For what? To drink? I doubt it, well, maybe...With everyone now dead, and soon to be un-dead, these so-called rednecks (they're actually backwoods hicks) are going to be awfully hungry, after unwittingly poisoning themselves, going completely insane, and being dead, and all. Fortunately , there are seven campers, near by, who aren't all that bright, and that's a lot of dim-witted flesh to be had. What follows, definitely puts this in the top five goriest films of the 1980's. And just think, Redneck Zombies is actually funnier than it is gory. That is, If you're into ridiculous, backwards humor like someone I know.You can't really call Redneck Zombies a failure, because this is exactly what they were going for, well, not a failure, exactly, more like "bad horror", then again, any damn fool can see that). These guys really take the cheesiness to legendary heights. I guess we could always do without the fact that it was shot on video, but if anything belongs on video, believe me, it's this. As ambitious of a production as it is, Redneck Zombies most definitely knows its place in the Exploitation world. Be sure to get the not rated version, otherwise, you'll be one unhappy camper. For the complete Redneck Zombies experience, check out the new Tromasterpiece Edition, it's swell!! If you don't hate over-the-top gore, sleazy, juvenile humor, bad acting, continuity issues, or movies made for less than $100 million, then you might not hate Redneck Zombies... oh, you probably will, what the hell do I know? 10/10

A former co-worker of mine told me about this film a few weeks ago, and I bought the film just to see how interesting this film could be. The basic gist of the film is that a drum of nuclear waste falls off the back of US Army Jeep in the rural parts of Maryland. Some rednecks get the drum thinking that it is Moonshine (because they do not know how to read, or they are just stupid) and give it to people and become flesh eating zombies.The film itself is not meant to be a Oscar winner, but it falls under the "it's so bad it's good" group. The special effects are very cheap, but it still fun to watch. I could write a book on how corny and cheesy the lines in this movie are, but I am not going to do that. The lines in this film are really bad, but it's so funny at some of the stuff that is said in this film. The gore in this film is is at times over the top. There seems to be more gore in this film, then Dawn of the Dead.The acting is over the top at times. Mainly Bob, the pre-vet student is starts tripping while doing an autopsy on one of the zombies. Drinking Dude, how could I forget him. He always drinks, at out of no where pulls out bottles of liquor and drinks it.If you like Troma films, then watch this. If you like gore b flicks, then watch this. In my opinion this is one of the best b movies of the 80's.
