Summary: One of the best horror/comedies to date.
Review: I first saw this movie a year ago at Otakon 2000, an anime convention, and it had me and everyone else in the audience rolling on the floors with laughter. Bio-Zombie is set around two slackers, Crazy Bee and Woody Invincible who work in a cd shop at a local mall. One night the two are running an errand for their boss when they hit a pedestrian, not being too bright they hide the body in the trunk of their car and head back to the shop. Unfortunatly the man doesn't stay dead and soon is spreading his mysterious Zombie infection through the mall. Now Bee and Woody, along with a handfull of survivors are forced to fight their way through the maze-like, zombie infested cooridors to freedom. Combining all the classic elements from cheesy horror flicks and some found exclusivly in video games, Bio-Zombie comes out as a fast paced ride of of gorry thrills, and witty humor. If you're a fan of movies like Army of Darkness than this is a movie that shouldn't be missed especially in subtittles.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: So stupid, it's good
Review: lucky me, i got to see this flick in a theater! subtitled, no less! it was a perfect balance of laughs and gross-out gore. but honestly, i think the scariest thing in it was Crazy Bee's hair.

Summary: A NICE MOVIE
Review: OK,The first time i watched the movie i didnt like it that much because i wasnt used to japanese movie styles,but the second time i liked it more.
The movie has some quite good action and nice little comedy it gets alittle scary at the end.
The ending was alittle depressing.It ends tracing to the two survivors contamination.
This movie has alittle similarity to resident evil.You should see it,its quite nice.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A refreshing addition to a great genre
Review: This film served as a great reminder of why I love watching movies. It's been a while since I've seen a film that I knew, before it was even over, that I would want to watch it again and again.
It follows 2 young shopkeepers in a Hong Kong mall who can't seem to stay out of trouble. When they hit a pedestrian who, unbeknownst to them, is going to turn into a zombie, they hide him in their trunk. Returning to the mall, the zombie escapes and traps many of the shop keepers inside. Pretty soon our heros are leading the escape mission since they have experience killing zombies - from video games of course!
This film has stupendous lighting, a great story line, and some of the best written characters I've seen in a long time. You will actually care for them and be in suspense when a zombie pops up hoping noone gets bitten.
Some of the camera work is sub-par but there are lots of inventive shots. This zombie film does not have loads of gore like some others, but it does contain huge amounts of intentional comedy that will make you beg for a sequal.
The voice acting (for english dubbing) is stupendous I might add. Their dialog flows nicely with the actors expressions and moods, and even seem fitting voices for the actors.
This film will be a cherished part of my collection and is a true asset to the comedy-horror genre!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Return of the Living Dead" Hong Kong style
Review: This film was awsome. Everything about it worked out great. All the characters where fleshed out well enough, and there was enough action and plot movement to keep me interested. This is also alot like one of my favorite movies "Return of the Living Dead." While the story is diffrent the pacing is nearly identicle. The movie starts out as a spoof, but as things move along things become more and more serious, and then when characters start dieing, the comedy all but disappears. Very well crafted and thought out. Plus the dubbing is pretty good! All the actors actually try (plus Wendee Lee does the voice of Rolls so I am automatically happy with the dub).

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: So stupid, it's good
Review: Totally B-rate zombie flick with an absurd plot and barely better acting. However, while it'll never be critically good.. if you watch it to be entertained and get a few chuckles, this one would work. The movie is about 3 stars, but I give another star for Rolls.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't believe the hype.
Review: Well, where to start? This movie contains very few redeeming features (granting it the one star). There's some clever editing, and the soundtrack is quite fitting for the genre... but that's about it.
I have come to expect more from the Asians in terms of horror, having been spoiled with other brilliant titles. This however is a bad seed. It's more or less Bill and Ted (not a good thing) meets Dawn of the dead.. gone horribly wrong. It contains very little onscreen gore (for those inclined), the acting is either non-exsistant, or very overplayed. Makeup is not even on par with what I've come to expect from some of the worst ventures into the genre. Effects, same thing. Apart from a couple scenes there's only a couple of attempts at doing away with the zombies in a clever or original fashion. It's all very weathered and/or seen umptheens of times before.
I'd say... be vary, unless you're particullary interested, or have some other good reason to see it (which thought I had), don't.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bill & Ted VS Day Of The Dead
Review: Worth while, almost follows all of Romero's Zombie rules, plenty of gore, but the gore could have been done a lot better. Fortunatly the sillyness of it all totally makes up for it, I actually even think the crappy english voice over adds to the sillyness of it all, check it out!
