Zombie Film Review:

Dead and Breakfast

Director: Matthew Leutwyler

Year: 2004

Tagline: Its like a bad horror movie, only worse.

Review: Winnebego full of un-likeable characters, a bizarre country and western singer and then BAM David Carradine as the B&B owner, being a little too much like his Kung Fu character… Murder, blood and gore follow suit with entertaining but essentially non-conformist zombies throughout the rest of the movie, one of which does want to be Bruce Campbell…

Zombie Quality:*

White greasepaint and a bit of eyeliner does not a zombie make… They look like they are going to be entered into a slightly shoddy pub Halloween fancy dress competition…

Zombie Behaviour: *

Dancing, weapon using, laughing, talking and the one thing they certainly don't do is eat flesh… They infect people by putting their fingers into a spiritual evil box of souls, which would make George Romero turn in his grave if he was dead…. Sometimes they are slightly entertaining, the Country and Western Zombie musical interludes were unexpected…. ‘Fo sho…'

Zombie Threat: NIL

These zombies are rubbish, you would not be in danger from these taking over the world… Puppies are more dangerous… and probably slightly more useful in a fight…

Gore Content: **

Now we are beginning to cook on gas… Plenty of heads being blown off, drumsticks in eyes and shotguns in the face, blood and brain matter flies everywhere…

Overall Quality: **

Not good but occasionally funny… It only gets the two stars, as I bought this zombie film to be entertained and scared and yet, its not really zombies and it's not really scary… Claiming on the cover to be the equivalent of Shaun of the Dead, is one of the most inaccurate cover quotes I have ever seen…

SPECIAL AWARD: Most respected actors from the Carradine clan in a zombie film… Dead and Breakfast… One…
