When self-help guru Dr. Reinis (Jaroslav Dusek) led his students on a retreat to ponder the meaning of life, he had no intention of leading them all to their doom. But when gut-munching zombie woodsmen emerge, the group finds itself locked in mortal battle. Alternately sickening and silly, this gruesomely hilarious Czech horror flick co-stars Jan Dolansky, Eva Nadazdyova, Anna Fialkova and Eva Janouskova.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

I bought the DVD on a whim because I was asking my cousin in Prague for some films he enjoyed. Knowing that I like horror, enjoy zombie flicks and have a penchant for films that look utterly ridiculous, he suggested Choking Hazard.A little bit of philosophical commentary mixed in with some excellent laughs and a lot of zombies. It has a bit of the bad B flavour but it's one of those films that realizes that it has the potential to be terrible and just cracks jokes on the fact and has fun. If all else fails you, some of the zombie scenes are excellent and some of the running jokes are just hysterical.If you like horror/comedy, especially of the zombified variety, I highly recommend this one.

I saw the movie in a theater and it is pretty clear that it deserves the theater even though it is evident that it had a low budget. I was really satisfied! I enjoyed the film for the whole 80 minutes and it had not a one boring spot. One crazy idea is followed by another (the most obscure is entrance of jehovist who happens to be blue movie actor, skating on a livers or scene with the eye are good ones as well), one witty line goes after the other and makers have put in it a good measure of gags. Yes, Choking Hazard is low budget, but so what? It extremely funny. Every fan of good (not only grim or zombie) comedies should attend as this movie. Choking hazard is absolute in its own way. I mildly recommend it!!

I just saw this movie at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York and it was awesome! I had a terrific time discussing this movie with the director, whom I think has an excellant sense of humor and definitely has his fingers on the pulse of comedy / horror films. I thought the movie was well shot, particularly with the budgetary limitations he encountered. The actors were well laid out and had just enough background to make me care about what happened to them. The movie included some film/story tricks I haven't seen used so effectively before (such as the slow-motion close ups and the rewind effect at the end of the film - hope I didn't spoil it for anyone!). All in all, a great film that should be watched by anyone and everyone who even vaguely likes comedy/horror. A true classic that will certainly go down in history with other comedy/horror greats, such as Evil Dead 2. 5 stars out of 5!

I just returned home from cinema and I can surely say one thing about this film: It's interesting in a specific way.The plot is quite simple. Group of people of different characters are in a hotel deep in the forests on a meeting leaded by Dr. Reinis -the blind philosopher- to search for the sense of life. Their meeting is interrupted by hunt of zombie-huntsmen (in Czech: "Zombivci" - zombie-myslivci ^_^), who are hunting weaker individuals.Characters I liked the most were Jan Dolanský's character and Kamil Svejda's character. They were very funny and acted brilliant. Dobes and Kopøiva made up some very original ideas- using a camera to "rewind" the plot or series-like credits in the beginning of the film. Some of the gags (e.g. the one with the eye)were hilarious, but on the other hand, there were some boring moments...So, the final judgement is: quite good but not so funny as "I Was A Teenage Intellectual"
