Two things straight off the bat, that hurt this film. Number one as the original reviewer mentioned the kicks on the zombies are way off, and hit nothing but air. I'm sympathetic to low budgets', but it's hard to focus when our lead hero is children's play fighting with the hordes of living dead. Second, Prendes is not an actor. Honestly I thought he did okay, if you keep that fact in mind, but he still doesn't hit the right notes at all, and really bogs down the film. It's odd, because the rest of the cast is excellent. Scream queens Rochon, Stevens, Quigley, and Rose all together in one film, was a huge plus. And Richard Lynch chews the scenery like the veteran genre pro he is. What I personally enjoyed about Corpses, is it's unique. So many zombie films be they big budget studio epics, or micro budget indie efforts, all try and recreate the magic of Romero, but Corpses dares to be different. In fact, if your looking for a zombie carnage film, you'll be disappointed, the zombies are never intimidating, and our heroes pretty much get past them with little effort. This is basically a supernatural spy film, with a solid story, and multiple twists.
