Plot:
A group of teens arrive on an island for a rave--only to discover the island has been taken over by zombies. The group takes refuge in a house where they try to survive the night.


So I just HAD to make a thread for this fun, awful piece of cow dung LOL. To be honest, this film is not THAT bad if you look at it as a horrid, deliberately bad Troma-esque B-Movie. If you want an example of fine art? LOLNO, you'll be disappointed. The characters are interesting enough, a decent variety. No one too special and quite a few were dislikeable. Team Ellie Cornell, black chick, main girl, Asian girl and stupid ass blonde bitch<3. And Simon. He was cute as fuckkk. The deaths ranged from shitty to average. The zombies were dull and just...whatthehell?! in general. The storyline was weak. Almost everything was weak. It was bad. And I'm sure you knew it was bad already. But yeah...badbadbadbadbadfuckingbadbad. But in a weird way, its charming, and definitely fun if you know what you're getting into. 3/10 for quality. 6.5/10 because its entertaining.

With Platinumprince on this one, guys. It IS a bad film. In fact, it's one of the worst of its release year, but it still had some decent deaths and an average cast. The ending was mildly surprising as well, but that might be because I'm not at all familiar with the games. Loved Ellie in this, I wish we had gotten more of her here.

I first heard about it because the guy who played Rory in Final Destination 2 was playing the protagonist in this one so I got interested and bought it as soon as it came out. I really liked it because of it's video game approach to the whole plot and meshing rap metal with shootouts well. It was because of the movie that I got into the games and I spent some time playing HotD 2 at the local Time Out in the mall and buying that one as well as the third one on Wii. As for Uwe Boll, I don't usually like his video game adaptations but here he hit the bulls eye in terms of goofiness.

I remember this being pretty corny and bad, but it's been a while so maybe I shouldn't comment. I never played the games.

The best part is Erica Durance topless. She was my favorite Lois Lane.

Ellie Cornell's screaming as the zombies chopped her legs off with an ax was always unsettling for me.

One of the worst films that I have ever seen. Awful effects, bad acting and just a horrible film in general. 1/10

I actually liked the red screen when one of them died, it was kinda cool, even if cheesy.

Its been so long since I've seen it, I've forgotten which one you mean (and usually I'm good at figuring that sort of thing out). I might have a double feature of the House Of The Dead movies when Robby and I erm....run out of movies to watch.
