This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
This 2008 horror comedy is sort of a zombie send-up of "Resident Evil" and "From Dusk Till Dawn" that mainly takes place in an underground strip club where an infected soldier turns the dancers into flesh-hungry zombies. We also meet a dopey, special forces team hunting the undead. Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street) and porn legend, Jenna Jameson are featured in this cheesy yet amusing zombie flick with great makeup effects. Fans of zombie flicks or horror in general, give this a try at least once.
ZOMBIE STRIPPERS! is a film that sees strippers turning into zombies. There's no more plotting to it than that, and it turns out to be an absolutely terrible Z-grade movie in every respect: bad acting, bad directing, no discernible storyline, awful effects and terrible, plasticated women.I was hoping for an energetic romp along the lines of FROM DUSK TILL DAWN, but the only thought process that seems to have gone into this film is to combine zombies and strippers. The first half of the movie is taken up with repetitive stripping scenes and the second half is made up of repetitive kill scenes.There's no middle ground, no interest or attempts at characterisation. We're treated to an acutely embarrassed Robert Englund who alternates between slumming it and hamming it, and once-upon-a-porn-star Jemma Jameson who looks far more frightening at the film's outset than she does when she turns into a zombie later on! At times the whole production seems to be an advert for breast augmentation surgery because there's absolutely nothing to it other than that. It's pitiful, truly pitiful, with painful acting and zombie effects and an inane stupidity to the script.
This movie proves that silicone does not age. Jameson dies right away and becomes a vampire. Throughout the movie, her appearance degrades as she becomes more zombie-like. However, her breasts seem to remain as perfectly squeezable as the day her surgeon gave them to her.To top it off, her other surgically enhanced sexual body part also seems to have survived the ravages of zombiehood. She may be old and wrinkly, but she still has the range and the choice of ammunition.Sadly, her zombie lips are misshapen and grotesque -- much like the way they were before she became a zombie.But you can't beat those boobs. Right up to the moment when she loses half of her head, those happy pillows still look warm and inviting.See this movie if you want to see Jenna Jameson die or if you want to find out if zombie strippers act even more cold and detached than those at your regular house of sin.Avoid this movie if you tend to cry at sad scenes such as Jameson coming back to life.
This movie is just horrendous. Now, I know what you're thinking. When you rent a film featuring porn star Jenna Jameson and titled Zombie Strippers! how good can you really expect it to be? Well, I never really expected this thing to be any good. I had hoped that it might be one of those "so bad, it's good" movies. Instead, it overshoots "so bad, it's good" and lands in "so bad, it's really, really, really bad".The story, which is filled with lame jokes and wrapped up in some juvenile political satire at the expense of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, starts with a squad of soldiers sent to put down a zombie outbreak at a research lab. A virus was created to reanimate corpses so they could be used to fight in war. One of the soldiers gets bitten and runs away to an illegal strip club, where he bites the lead dancer (Jenna Jameson). She becomes a zombie, which in addition to filling her with the hunger for human flesh, also makes her a much better stripper.She bites a couple of other strippers and these undead skanks become a sensation, driving degenerate strip club patrons into such a frenzy they don't even care when a living girl gets naked on stage. That provokes jealousy and horror in some of the other strippers. However, the strip club owner (Robert Englund) just enjoys all the money he's making, though his plan to keep the strippers' zombified victims locked up in the basement turns out to be more trouble than all the money in the world. They get loose, chaos breaks out, including a zombie strip-off and an undead vagina being used in a way that I can't quite figure out how to describe.In fairness, Zombie Strippers is trying to be an over-the-top comedy. But there's an enormous emphasis on the word "trying" in that sentence. The jokes are putrid and this crew of alleged actors has all the comedic timing of a broken metronome that's sticking out of the burst stomach of a dead pig that's been left under the hot sun all day. I've seen Holocaust movies that were funnier than this film.This is another example of actors who can't act and a writer/director who can neither write nor direct. This bunch of losers thinks they can get around that by being intentionally awful. The whole charm of that sort of film, though, is that it's an honest and spectacularly failed attempt at making a good movie. Setting out to make a hilariously bad film is like intentionally becoming the world's fattest man. The end result is never pretty to look at.If you're one of the three people on Earth who hasn't already seen Jenna Jameson naked, you can find it in Zombie Strippers. Be forewarned; only two other actress get nude in this thing and only one of them is attractive. There is lots and lots of blood and gore and you can see Robert Englund embarrass himself with humor too corny for even the worst Nightmare on Elm Street sequel.If you took some of Jenna Jameson's XXX films and edited out the graphic sex, you'd probably end up with movies that were still better than Zombie Strippers. Don't even bother with this DVD.
