Dead Alive

"I kick ass in the name of the lord"!!! Thank you Peter Jackson for making this movie. Forget about Lord of the Rings or the horrible King Kong remake, this is the true cinematic genius of Peter Jackson. That's rite, give me zombies over middle earth any day. I shouldn't even have to tell anyone how amazing this movie is, all you have to do is see it and you to will be wanting to get rid of all your Lord of the Rings merch for a sweet Lionel action figure, equipped with lawn mower. Lionel is a quite man who has the unpleasant job of taking care of his over bearing mother. One day when Lionel goes to the store to pick up his weekly supplies he meets Paquite, who is told by her wacko grandmother that he is the one she is destined to marry and love. Like any other woman she nags at Lionel until he gives in and takes her on a date. They go to the zoo, and just when they are having a good time, and Lionel is about to get some sugar, his mother shows up and ruins everything. She gets bit by the mystical rat monkey from Skull island. Who knew that Peter Jackson would turn out to make two movies with skull island as a setting. So this rat monkey bites the mother, which slowly turns her into a zombie. Lionel being the good son try's to take care of his zombie mother, who soon infects others. It gets way out of hand and soon this quiet town in New Zealand is all zombiefied. Lionel then has to kick some ass and defeat all the zombies. In no way can you take this movie seriously, instead take it for what it is. A cheesy horror movie from 1991, that is supposed to take place in the 50's from New Zealand. That means it has bad clay animation and way over the top gore, that is super fake looking. But to me that just equals one hell of a zombie movie.
Rating: 4.5 Yeti roars out of 5
