Description
Japan's Rock `n' Roll Zombie Horror Classic Is Finally Coming To DVD! Ace, a rockabilly fan who really wants to be cool, is on his way to seeing his favorite group Guitar Wolf when a strange thing occurs . . . aliens invade the Earth and people start returning to life as flesh-eating zombies! Enlisting the help of the (real-life) Japanese rock/ punk band Guitar Wolf (and self-proclaimed coolest rock band in the world), Ace and the members of the band get entangled in many misadventures with crazy rock managers in very tight shorts, transsexuals, naked women shooting guns in the shower, and bloodthirsty zombies ready to tear them apart. Leather jackets, loud over-modulated music, laser guitar picks, motorcycles, muscle cars, and LOTS of fire . . . it's all right here! Did we also happen to mention flesh-eating zombies? Think Dawn of the Dead meets Kiss meets The Phantom of the Park with the humor of Evil Dead 2 and that's what Wild Zero is all about!
Average customer rating:

Customer Reviews:
A must-have for your DVD collection.......2007-05-15
I love this film. not such a huge fan of the band, only a little one, but this still it's so~ awesome!. not mislead you into that it's award winning material. It's pretty B-grade. but it's such a B-grade film, It's so bad, it's good! ROCK & ROLL~!!
And if you don't check it out, zombies will come eat your brains! @W@
Hilarious and bizarre.......2007-01-18
A friend and I saw "Wild Zero" at a zombie film fest and halfway through the film we knew we would want to watch it over and over again. The plot is bizarre and seemingly cobbled together with every concept, special effect or catch-phrase that the filmmakers could come up with (Japanese rock-and-roll zombie film with aliens and Guitar Wolf saving the world.) Continuity, logic, and to some extent--taste---seems to have been thrown out the window in favour of a lot of fire, explosions, screaming and melodramatic expressions. The drinking game is pretty great but one can easily be too intoxicated early on in the film--and the film doesn't really pick up till it's nearly halfway through. A great film for anyone who is a fan of ludicrous cinema (or in the same vein as John Waters' early films like "Mondo Trasho" or "Desperate Living.")
Rock N Roll!!.......2006-08-21
This is the ultimate Rock and Roll Zombie Romance Comedy. Love knows no borders, nationalities, or genders! ROCK AND ROLL BABY!
Do not play the drinking game, you'll die.
Do not make up your own drinking game, you'll come very close to dying.
Punk Rock, Zombies, Oh yes.......2006-06-23
I've seen some of the reviews on here saying this movie was dumb. Well, maybe it could be. But that is like saying a Mercedes is dumb. It's only dumb if you can't afford it but it's great for the people who love them
Same thing here. If you like The Ramones, Romero's Living Dead series, and the goofy like FX of Very Strange Video, you'll love it.
I've watched this movie probably 30 times. It's funny, and all around I liked it. It may not be for everyone. But I did want to make a reveiw showing the truth and not some wannabee film critic who has never made a movie in his life.
The Truth is simple, if you're into the somewhat odd, funny, B grade horror movies that are both funny, cheesy, and full of zombies, and you enjoy The Ramones or even the Misfits, well, BUY THIS, YOU'LL LOVE IT.
If you are more into serious movies, then don't.
"Please help us! The people in this town are f****d!".......2005-12-12
Forgettable (I hope) entry into the zombie genre. I was generous by giving this misfire two stars. The zombie make-up is nothing but discolored skin, every character was overacted and the story consisted of nothing but very annoying people running from location to location screaming loudly until Guitar Wolf shows up and starts combing their hair while killing zombies with electrified guitar picks.
Also there were some space ships flying around, a confusing gay love story and some strange guy with a bad toupee shooting lasers out of his eyes.
