What a load of Zomballs!
10 October 2014
A stag party travels to an air-force base where they take part in Zomball, an extreme activity where they get to shoot real zombies, the unfortunate victims of a recent pandemic.

Boozy blokes, tarty strippers, and the living dead. A surefire combination for a hugely entertaining comedy horror movie, or so one would think. But although the title Stag Night of the Dead conjures up all kinds of wild possibilities for sexy, bloody fun, somehow the people behind this film fail on almost every level, making yet another hugely embarrassing addition to the UK zombie genre.

Writer/director Neil Jones aims for lads mag style humour, but thanks to an awful script, a lousy cast, and very little discernible talent behind the camera, his film is about as funny as a kick in the nuts (which incidentally is one of the film's supposedly hilarious gags!). When one of the characters is called Georgina Romero, the level of inventiveness is clearly not very high.

As for the nudity and gore one might expect from such a film, the splatter is extremely limited, thanks to the characters being armed with electric stun guns instead of regular firepower (allowing for some really woeful visual effects), and the bare flesh is limited to one pair of zombie breasts and some tempting cleavage from busty stripper Candy (Sophie Lovell Anderson). All in all, a huge disappointment.
