Brain Dead Trailers

A sleepy fishing port town is consumed with terror when a small crater crash-lands nearby and releases a slimy parasitic agent that transforms the residents into brain-eating zombies. Cornered in an abandoned fishing lodge, six strangers are forced to band together to stave off the blood-sucking monsters clawing the walls outside.

Reviews
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
Paul Magne Haakonsen Actually "Brain Dead" was a nice surprise for a zombie movie that doesn't brandish a several million dollar Hollywood budget. Sure the story here doesn't offer anything new to the zombie genre, and actually borrows heavily from the classic horror movie "The Evil Dead".The story is about a meteor striking Earth, and amazingly enough strikes through the forehead of a fisherman. The meteor, of course, is carrying some alien parasite which takes over the body of the fisherman and instantaneously turns him into a mutant zombie-like creature. Two convicts escape from the local police and seek shelter in a remote cabin. Two hiking women lost in the woods seek shelter in the cabin. And a lusty televangelist and one of his congregation girls seek shelter in the cabin. These unlikely destinies come together and band together for surviving the night, as ravenous space mutant-zombies are stalking the dark woods.Yeah, fairly average story here, and actually, the movie wasn't carried by the plot of the story. "Brain Dead" was carried by the rather outstanding acting performances by almost every single actor and actress and the gory special effects.The characters in the movie were also pretty good, sure they were stereotypical in their own way, but they were also very memorable and unique in their own way. Each character brought something nice to the story."Brain Dead" has a good amount of blood and gore, most likely even enough to keep most gorehounds happy. I was satisfied with the amount of mayhem, and the effects were actually nicely made.If you expect a zombie movie, which I did, you might be a bit disappointed, as it is not actual stereotypical zombies as in many other movies, but it is more like mutated space-zombies, in lack of better words. But despite that fact, then "Brain Dead" was actually a rather enjoyable movie on almost every front.Lots of blood, gore and laughs, just lacking actual zombies.
trashgang It was a bit of a hard to get, had to buy it in Hong Kong of all places but it was worth buying. Have seen the trailer it already caught me. But sometimes trailers could mislead you showing already the best parts, well, this one have some other beauties to shown beyond the trailer. For example, every girl in the movie has a opportunity to shown their mountain dews. And it isn't gratuitous! It never distract you from the movie and that's already a fine treat. And the storyline is so great, the acting is for an independent excellent. And I thought to recognize Michelle Tomlinson from somewhere. Well, it's from the turkey, The Cellar Door but here she gives a great performance. The special effects are great too, the head blast, the hand through the head, didn't spoil the story by that, it's in the trailer you morons! And don't let us forget the humor throughout the movie. You will have it all, T&A, gore, humor, and suspense. A worth seeing.
mario_c It's a B-series Zombies' flick which mixes gore with humor, like it uses to be common in the genre.Some of the jokes are funny and some of the gore scenes too! In fact the type of gore used is not to shock you but to make you laugh.It also has some beautiful and nude girls who definitely help to sustain this movie interesting...I might say it's enjoyable and nice for gore fun but it's not a reference, not even in the genre.I score it 6/10.
adrian-155 I just finished watching this movie at the Fright Night Film Fest in Louisville, Ky. It's a pretty damn good little film. While it's not ground breaking in any way, it's a lot of fun and brings T & A back to horror films where it belongs. Back in the 80's breasts and horror went hand in hand, sadly that's no longer so except for fine films like this one. The biggest problem I think this film will have in finding an audience is the name since there are already at least two other films in the genre that go by the same title. Hopeful I'll be able to pick it up on DVD soon. Begin SpoilerBy the way, beware that space amoebas hide in the strangest places.End Spoiler
