This movie would be better than the Sphinx if the gore weren't nearly nonexistent, the makeup weren't so cheap (especially when you can see the bottoms of the rubber masks), and the music weren't so tragically "80's fag". But, then again, few things in life are perfect... Well, it opens with a couple of guys picking up a hitchhiker-et who goes skinny dipping with em and kills them as a weirdo with a camera and 2 midgets watch... weird huh? Meanwhile, some lame ass, cookie cutter, 80's heavy metal/techno band signs some autographs on the tits and asses of some groupies. Then they run off to some East Bumblefuck town in the middle of nowhere (oh, they're really going big time now!) , where they shack up in some Early Addams Family Deco house owned by the local sideshow. The lead "singer" of the group starts screwing around with some black magic, re-animating music as well as a local piece of jailbait named Cathy. Soon after their arrival, complete with some queer 80's antics, the band is thrown in the slammer by the local conservatives, and the incredibly naive, incredibly stupid, incredibly Christian town council bans Rock and Roll music from their fair village. While the angry posse destroys all rock related stuff in town, the creep-o family offs the band (wahoo!). But, Cathy resurrects the group with that damn re-animation music, and they start strutting around in KISS makeup and kill the Nazi family... who later become zombies themselves, and kill the townsfolk... who also become zombies. Somehow, the band gets a recording contract, not letting death get in the way of their audition (it's just too bad that their demises didn't improve their "talent"). The remaining townsfolk are apparently determined to prove that they're dumber than the zombies, as the ghouls outsmart them and eat them afterwards. Finally, the "band" saves Cathy from being eaten, as they hypnotize the undead with their music, then fry their brains with mustard gas... Yeah, I know, long review right? Well, this thing was like Troma w/o the graphic sex, drugs, and pig intestines... the family was made up of freak Nazis, such as the Granny Werewolf, midgets (one who eats himself, and another who eats a cow), a couple of "just plain weird" guys, and even Hitler himself! Check it out, it's actually worth it if you're stoned off your ass!

Sequels: Sadly, none
