Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away
SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Leofwine_draca As a straightforward rip-off of NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, this isn't bad at all, a fast-paced, poorly-budgeted little number with plenty of outrageously good gore scenes to keep the blood flowing for horror freaks. This is both the brainchild and the ego-trip of Bill Hinzman, the familiar guy who famously played the cemetery ghoul in NIGHT (the "They're coming to get you, Barbara!" one). Hinzman directs, produces, has half his relations in the cast and stars as Flesheater, a guy who climbs outta his tomb and munches his way through an amateurish cast.Sounds boring? It isn't, because there is absolutely no exposition to get in the way; new characters are introduced throughout and die approximately two minutes later. Hinzman packs his film with many inventive gore effects that equal those in larger-scale productions; some 'highlights' include hands popping through chests, pitchfork impalings, head explosions, and all manner of sausagey, gored corpses lying around. Not content with gore alone, there's a prolonged shower scene, and somehow all the girls Hinzman attacks manage to lose their tops at some point.So, exploitation is the name of the game, and that's just about the only thing this film has going for it. Certainly the acting is mainly pathetic from an unknown cast, and Hinzman succeeds in good makeup effects alone for his part. In a nice touch, the guy who shot Ben in the original NIGHT returns for a similar action in the non-surprise ending. Elsewhere we get to see a barn burning down and a 'zombie hunt' totally copied from the original. A simplistic HALLOWEEN-style score works very well in making things tense and eerie, and a gruesome attack on a couple of kids in their home makes for very strong stuff indeed. But for the most part, this is cheesy and laughable, carried out in just the right B-movie style. Very enjoyable viewing indeed for zombie aficionados.
loomis78-815-989034 A group of teenagers head to the woods to spend a chilly Halloween night partying and having sex. One fool unearths a grave that somehow triggers the dead in the area to come back to life. This first zombie out of the casket is none other than the original graveyard ghoul from "Night of the Living Dead" played by Bill Hinzman. Hinzman is also the Producer, Director, Co-Writer (along with Bill Randolph) and Editor of this film. He quickly pulls the heart out of the fool who woke him and infects others in gory fashion. The kids eventually catch on as their Halloween Hayride goes south. They scramble from farm to farm with the zombies taking them easily. I want to start by saying how much I love Bill Hinzman and everyone involved with George A. Romero's classic "Night of the Living Dead". With that said this movie is really awful. What might have been a fun low budget outing is sunk by lousy production values, non actors butchering poorly written lines, and bad scene after bad scene. Sure it's a kick seeing Hinzman reprise his role as the graveyard zombie and having this set on Halloween was a good idea. But the poor execution makes this seem like a video shot on a weekend with some friends. There is some cheesy gore but no scares or atmosphere to be found. Quite dismal to say the least.
patrick-wheeler-31-914173 A couple of things that are really a treat for any NOTLD fan. Of course Bill Hinzman (RIP my good man, you will be missed) the cemetery zombie from NOTLD directs and stars, but did you know that when George Romero and company set out to make NOTLD, the working title was "Night of the Flesh Eaters" yet another film, 1964's "The Flesh Eaters" discouraged George from using "Flesh Eater" in the title, but Bill seemed to use "Flesh Eater" to further the NOTLD mythos. also (spoiler alert) the little fella who pops the remaining two teenage survivors in the head, believing them to be zombies, when they scurry out of their hiding spot in the barn, well that fella was the same guy who shout Ben in the head when he peered out of the arm house in NOTLD. Seems Bill was trying to make a subtle point. I loved the Pennsylvania scenery in this film, and all the time watching, I was really dying for an Iron City Beer what with all the product placement. I love this movie for the bad acting, the camp, the non-plot, and all the bravado Bill put into this. Bill is the Ed Wood of the zombie film. any serious NOTLD fan should watch this for the shear nostalgia.
Pumpkin_Man Sometime back in either February or March, we had a big snow storm and got out of school for a few weeks. During that time I bought a bunch of Zombie flicks such as Zombi 2, 3, 4, 5, Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror, Zombie Holocaust and FleshEater (a.k.a.) Revenge of The Living Zombies, which was my favorite out of the whole bunch! I love this movie, not only because it's a Zombie flick, but it's a Zombie flick that takes place on HALLOWEEN, which is awesome!!! It has gore, female nudity, zombies, HALLOWEEN...what else could you possibly ask for in a horror flick! I knew how it would end because I'm so smart! The lead zombie is the cemetery zombie from George A. Romero's classic Night of the Living Dead! If you love horror, zombies, and HALLOWEEN, you'll love FLESHEATER (a.k.a.) REVENGE OF THE LIVING ZOMBIES!!!
