Wiseguys vs. Zombies (2003 Video)
6/10
another troma winner
18 May 2005
Cheaply made funny movie shot on digital video that probably cost $80 to make, it found its home at troma on this DVD release along with the inferior Meat for Satan"s Icebox. And while Wiseguys VS. Zombies makes for a entertaining viewing session thanks to the intriguing premise, it's advisable to pass on Satan's Icebox, a movie so bad I still can't finish it.

This being a Dogpile 95 release from Troma (who will be distributing my DV shot movie also) you can expect some non Hollywood standards in production, acting, and special effects. But this only adds to the charm of the movie. At least Troma is giving independent movies a shot which is more than could be said about a lot of other studios. And I can appreciate what the makers of Wiseguys VS. Zombies had to do to get the vision out there.

A quick synopsis: Freddy and Gus are hit men ordered to deliver a lost/stolen military drug to a cu ban drug lord who is only referenced to as "the cu ban". En route the hit men stop for a moment in South Carolina and have their car impounded by the local Barney Fife. Soon the drug creates a mass of the undead, who quickly multiply by biting the local hillbilly population. It is up to Freddy and Gus, and a tag-along bleach blonde hotty, to put an end to the deadly situation.

One other quick note for those who might not know. The director of this movie also did Ankle Biters the midget vampire movie. Wiseguys VS. Zombies is pretty much in the same fashion, very tongue in cheek but a vast improvement over Ankel Biters.
