Braindead (1992)
6/10
Horny & Corny
16 January 2024
Braindead is a true cult classic. I'd go so far as to say it's probably one of the best zombie movies ever. It's also probably one of the goriest and bloodiest movies ever made, which of course makes it even better.

Braindead / Dead Alive is the story of Lionel Cosgrove, a total mommy's boy. I'd go so far to say he's probably a virgin too at the start of the movie he's so far under his mothers control I don't think she'd let any woman get near him. When Lionel finds love with the girl who works in her father's store his mother jealous nature leads her to spy on them on a trip to the zoo. While on this trip she gets bitten by a "Sumatran rat-monkey" which leads her to turn into a zombie. From that moment on chaos of course reigns. This includes zombie babies, kung fu priest zombies and of zombie massacre that includes a lawn mower. Friggin Lawnmower, man!

This movie has it all, what happens if you feed zombies stimulants? You'll see in this movie. What happens if two zombies have sex? You'll see in this movie. In fact it's quite a surprise that zombies can be quite so horny corny.

Above all this is a comedy movie, as long as you have a strong stomach. I'll also give you a warning, after you see this movie I doubt you will ever want to eat any custard ever again. Yes, a zombifying mother trying to eat custard will never be a success, especially when parts of her body are falling off. You have to see that scene to believe it.

Braindead is a very good movie, as long as you can take the gore. I know that's not everybody's thing but it's fun, and yes this movie is fun. It's bloody, it's gory and it's got a zombie lawn mower massacre scene, so watch it! You won't regret it.
