I don't hate this movie, but I doubt I'll ever watch it again. It starts off with a boatload of promise but ends limping to the finish line. "Brain Dead" steals the title from one of the greatest gore movies ever, Peter Jackson's "Brain Dead" and then rips off the plot device to "Night of the Creeps" and all is well and good initially. It has witty, clever dialog, it pours a bucket of big breasts and bush on you, and splashes you with sweet, sweet bloody, brain-popping gore. Then the plot falls asleep on you. The main problem is, besides from the mostly poor acting,the pacing falls to pieces in the middle and I found it becoming boring. It quickly becomes straight-to-video swiss cheese plot and by then the third act has shriveled up and can't muster enough of a inspired effort to pull this out of the depths of mediocrity. Still...I recommend this as a one shot, been there done that, filled out my zombie quota for the week, type of movie. I just wouldn't recommend buying it.
