Redneck Zombies

(1987)

In late 1986, a barrel of toxic waste disappears from military possession... when the driver offers his dog a puff off his joint! That's the basis for this story made by Full Moon Pictures (what the fuck?! Oh wait, I'd say that do to the lack of living dolls, puppets, or toys, this has nothing to do with Chuck Band) was later picked up and redistributed by the independent horror maker's best friend, Troma! The film quality is terrible, looking like it was shot entirely on home video! But, featuring some off color jokes and Mr. T jokes, the movie's dialogue is entertaining! Well, the movie is about a group of rednecks who find the aforementioned lost barrel of toxic waste and use it to build a moonshine still! Of course, the moonshine from the still turns everyone who drinks it into... dramatic pause... REDNECK ZOMBIES! This is rather unfortunate for a small group of city slickers who come out to this red-neck of the woods (heh heh) on a camping excursion. But, thanx to the acid head black guy of the group, the group has a fighting chance. With the help of spray deodorant, they can dry up the zombies and destroy them! But, in the end, the zombies over-power them and only the fat chick and the moustached drunkard survive (both are committed in a nearby asylum). There were so many things that made this movie good and made it suck too. The hitchhiking shaver parody of Chop Top in TCM was funny as the Inquisition! There are also a couple other parodies that weren't bad too. It's funny that their wardrobe consisted of nothing but flannel shirts and homemade T-shirts! HAHA! You can tell that the creator of this movie was heavily influenced by Troma, since the movie contained almost ALL of the requirements for the Troma formula: Drugs, tits, flaming transvestite(s), toxic waste, over-acted facial expressions, blatant and overly gory acts of violence, and dick and fart humor! The only thing missing was a blind girl to abuse! Oh, and the guy who made this thing was also picked up by Troma to make several other movies for them. One things boggles my mind though... why wasn't the soundtrack to this movie a best selling Grammy winner?
