Advantages: Hilarious, Goriest Horror Movie Ever, Hilarious acting

Disadvantages: N/A

Where the hell did this movie come from?! Braindead is so 'over-the-top' gory, disgusting and sick that I was either laughing my a**e off or sitting in front of the TV in disbelief!. The acting in this film is so bad that it actually makes the movie more of a comedy than a horror! Everything that could possibly be dismembered was and the amount of blood and green gunge is far beyond belief. The movie could have been made any more gory!

The film begins with a search for a particular breed of 'rat monkey' by a zoologist with the help of a few islanders. This monkey is very dangerous - if bitten by it, not only will you die, but you will also turn into a zombie and the only way to stop this is to immediately amputate the infected limb. I thought that the scene where the zoologist's hand, arm and head were amputated were gory enough but believe me, the introductory scene is minor in comparison to the rest of the movie!

The rest of the movie is based on a guy called Lionel, a 25 year-old mummy's boy who lives with his possessive mother. Anyway, this guy goes out on his first date ever (a trip to the zoo?!) with a Spanish girl (Paquita) from the local corner shop. But things certainly change when his possessive freak of a mother (a member of the Ladies Welfare League) secretly follows her son while he is on his date when she accidentally gets bitten by the very same rear breed of monkey – something or other raticus it is called ha ha – so as you can guess, she turns into a zombie.

It may not sound like much of a story but its not the story you would want to watch it for. It is the amount of blood and green gore in the movie and the over the top scenes. You name it, its in the film – two zombies having sex, a zombie baby, killer intestines with a mind of their own, zombie baby in a blender, a hypodermic needle repeatedly plunged up a nostril, a farting, disembodied rectum, a kung-fu priest, mothe
r dear eating her own ears with custard for desert!, and who could not forget, a lawnmower massacre. It is truly disgusting.

All this has to be seen to be believed but be warned it is definitely not for the faint hearted!
