Undead

Undead is sort of halfway between something that could be a total flop and something that could be incredibly original. This leads to the fact that parts of the audience simply can't like the film because it's nonsense, while others will say that it's an interesting concept. I think it's an interesting concept that just didn't realize its potential and got bogged down in clichéd scenes that bring it down. (26.10.2016)

Bad Taste was imaginative and original, so one could ignore the ridiculous effects and garage music. Actually, it was these cheap features that gave it its particular charm. But the Australian jackasses known as the “Spierig Bros.” just mix zombies with aliens (what kind of combination is that?!) in one absurd mishmash with almost no original ideas, making the eccentric amateurish result almost unwatchable. For more than thirty clichéd killings (grinder, shovel, rifle, etc.), there is only one original (with an airplane propeller). I’m giving this only one very weak star for the certain amount of enthusiastic playfulness I felt from the film. (14.01.2011)
