Featured review
Whaa? A charming zombie flick....with cleavage
Yes, I enjoyed his flick. Nichole Hiltz is great as Norma. I thought I saw her in My Name is Earl, but that is Jamie Pressly. I was fooled as were some others. Both actresses are great as trashy hot hillbillies. Loved the red dress on Norma showing ample cleavage. Wow! Everyone knows the plot.
Norma is not 'appreciated for who she is', so she dates someone out of the trailer park. Big mistake. The trailer billies punch his lights out. Ticked off, she deals with the devil and blows up the park with her in it, but only to exists in some sort of purgatory waiting for innocent victims to show up and become dinner as she become a living zombie with the others. The funny parts are their goofy characters, which they play well.
The trailer park becomes a zombie park and the residents become alive again, torturing their visitors. Each one had their own unique 'personality' from meat eaters to the 'jerky' guy, to the guitar guy.
The visitors are troubled teens with their own set of issues. Between the zombies and the troubled teens, these are a lot of characters to handle and movie around and develop given their time on the screen. But I think the director handled them all with finesses. In an ensemble casts such as this, there is not much room for deep character.
The movie reminded me of Mortville to fans of John Waters. The movie Desperate Living takes place in Mortville, a town of homeless people that live and play in a garbage dump. The blurb for the flick was "who are these people, where do they go when the sun goes down", which of course was a mandate to see it.
Special effects in Trailer Park were superb. I mean who can just treat the zombies as real characters with out spilling the beans...er, I mean guts...of the character. Music was good and appropriate. I think the flick was under rated. It is really above most zombie movies and had a great cast,set design,sound track,lighting design and direction. Script pretty good from a comic book title.
My copy came with a DVD of P2 another good film. So I got quite a bargain in the two DVD set.
Nichole Hiltz has been in a lot of flicks and I will look for her in new ones....great job. Her and Jamie P. could rule a huge trailer park. That's a wrap, nice job everyone.
By the way, if we treat woman 'for who they are', rather than as piece of meat we can avoid such zombie scenarios in the future. A warning to chauvinists everywhere.
