The Title Should Be "My Dishonest Girlfriend".......2007-04-26
I am not going to say much about this movie, that hasn't already been stated in this forum. This movie "sucks" in plain English. I wanted to watch this movie to witness Vampires fight Zombies. Consequently, Vampires and Zombies battling never transpired in this film, if you choose to call this rubbish a film. Therefore, I am a bit disconsolate that I was misdirected by the alluring title of this movie. I feel like it lied to me, like some women I have dated. The type of woman who presents herself in one manner and really is the complete opposite, well that is Vampires and Zombies in a nutshell.
There were a couple of cute girls in this movie, but if I wanted to observe a movie with cute girls I would have shopped other genres of cinema. If you want to watch a movie and feel robbed after you view it, see "City of Angels". Why, because the movie doesn't hid the fact that it sucks, so there are no surprises.
Whoever Wins, You Lose ... and Your Money Too.......2007-01-01
Please take a look at the DVD cover of "Vampires vs. Zombies," and you will notice that two scary creatures are facing each other like "Alien vs. Predator." Probably someone thought of renaming this cheap zombie flick, trying to cash in on "AVP" which is not a great film, but at least honest about its content. In this ultra-low budget "Vampires vs. Zombies" you see no battle between zombies and vampires. All you see is two guys, old and middle-aged, and three or four ladies (some with false teeth), all driving cars somewhere in the woods or roaming in the poorly-lighted building, not knowing what to do, saying whatever nonsense you don't care.
Frankly I don't know what I should write about its thin story. A young woman and her daddy are traveling in a car. The radio is talking about some terrible, very terrible news like outbreak of `zombie disease' or something, and suddenly a weird-looking guy appears before their car, and BOOM! They hit the guy, whose head is rolling on the ground, but hey, it's OK because that's only a zombie! Am I supposed to be scared?
After that they pick up a girl named Carmilla, who turns out a vampire. And there is some old guy called `The General,' George C Scott look-alike who is looking for Carmilla. That far I could understand, but the rest of the story is so muddled and confusing that I started to lose interest in whatever they say or do, except some brief nudity and chopping off the heads. And they are not much fun.
The film's opening credits include the name of the 19the century Irish writer Sheridan Le Fanu, and the film claims that his classic vampire story `Carmilla' is the basis of the film. OK, to be fair, the filmmakers seem to have read the original. It is certain there are some scenes or elements in story that faintly resemble this well-known story - female traveler leaving her `daughter' behind, etc. - but my impression is just this: "So what?" Probably yours will be the same.
Everything in this `film' is amateurish - editing, acting and lighting, everything. Brinke Stevens appears twice as someone whispering something to the daughter, or someone who is supposed to be mysterious, but her roles in the story just don't make sense, and neither do most part of the film.
In short, don't waste your time just like I did
the general.......2006-06-21
this movie is worth seeing for 1 man... the general.... seriously, the general rules, his noncholance dispaching vampires is awsome & check out the groovey cowboy hat....
the storys got zombies all over,there shown similar to hobo's - with vampires like smack addicts, dangerous but in the shadows...
see it for the general, ges like a stocky willie nelson killing vampires
The First Great Postmodern Horror Flick.......2006-03-05
This is a sadly misunderstood film because everyone is taking it too literally; it is actually a powerful and deliberate statement about postmodernism. A critic might say, "Why does a movie called 'Vampires Vs. Zombies' have no fighting between vampires and zombies?" The decision to use this title is a brave indictment of marketing and how it affects our preconceptions; it proves the postmodnernist thought that everything is relative to one's viewpoint. It is not well known, but auteur Vince D'Amato originally considered the title "Lesbian Vampire Boogaloo" but eventually settled on its current title to emphasize his point. And speaking of lesbianism, the film is also a bold statement about relative sexuality, since every last woman in this movie is a lesbian. Critics say the cars are driving at 5 kph (it was filmed in Canada) due to a limited budget and filming locations, however, this was a deliberate choice to show the relative passage of time and distance according to one's perception. The incomprehensible flashbacks are an ingenious way of showing the fickleness of human memory, and the ambiguousness in the mental hospital scenes is a shining example of the distrust we should exercise over our own senses. The existence and under-utilization of the few zombies in the movie with no explanation at all or even surprise by the characters is a striking portrait of how events outside our control--even events as large as a zombie apocalypse--are beyond meaningful comprehension. I could try to explain more of the meanings behind the interactions of the main characters, but there is none--and that is the point! For instance, when the father of the converted lesbian vampire has a wooden stake through his shoulder and is soaked in blood, she calmly asks, "Is everything all right?" I was simply blown away by the postmodern implications of this statement. You'll just have to see this movie for yourself.
With such a philosophically challenging film I can see how its greatness has yet to be recognized. I believe that within a few years this will be hailed as the first great postmodern horror flick. But that's just my viewpoint.
So utterly terrible that I have to buy it........2005-07-10
This is the worst movie I have ever seen. Everything about it is horrible - acting, editing, plot, special effects (if you could even call them that), etc etc.
Because of that, however, it's become a favorite with my group of friends. I've shown it to just about everyone I know and we all find it hilarious, so I'm buying it for one of my friends as a birthday present. I don't know. I suppose it has it's own special place in our heart in a "so-bad-it's-good" kind of way.
