Zombie Nation 2004

Director: Ulli Lommel
Starring: Gunter Ziegler

I'm going to keep this as brief as possible because I actually begrudge spending any more time on this unmitigated piece of crap.

Singer is a vile misogynistic cop, a fact the script beats over our heads when he arrests his first victim. He manhandles her into a warehouse and kills her whilst his bemused partner waits outside. Singer comes out without the woman but carrying a very large and heavy bag. His partner seems to accept his piss poor explanation.

The twisted cop then kills the wrong girl. She's just been to see some voodoo women who doused her in pig blood and encouraged a large snake towards her lady garden. You know, for protection.

At this point the murdered girls begin to rise from the dead and the film becomes even more objectionable. Despite the fairly cool looking zombie on the DVD cover, what we actually get is chicks wearing too much black eye make-up. Terrifying. These 'zombies' can talk, drive, dance and apparently apply for jobs. A note here on the title: Racoon eyes do not a zombie make and while we're at it - five is not a nation.

The acting is bad. Bad, bad, BAD.
But the script, directing and editing are equally terrible.  Each scene is about 10 seconds long and there is no plot - just a random jumble of events including an appalling Marathon Man rip-off; senseless flashbacks and a random fight club scene. Most characters are detestible the rest are a homogenous blur.

It's clear that most of the set was constructed in the same warehouse and this is particularly grating in the police station scenes. The camera angle doesn't even attempt to disguise the exposed brick and pipes or the false lighting.

I'm all for low budget films so long as they are not also devoid of intelligence,skill and imagination.

I just can't say any more. This film is the biggest pile of shite I ever saw. Please don't mistake me - this is NOT a 'so bad, it's good' film. Honestly. I really looked for anything which would enable me to give it one star but couldn't find a single redeeming feature. 
Absolute toss. 0/10.
