Being a sucker for all things zombie, I did of course pick up this movie when I happened to come across it. And while I hadn't heard about it prior to finding it, and having no expectations to it at all, I still did sit down to watch it.
Needless to say that it turned out that "Attack of the Southern Fried Zombies" was every bit as low budget and generic as I had anticipated.
While it was very clear that the movie was definitely made by someone with ambition and a passion for the zombie genre, this movie just suffered from having a too small budge,t and also at being an overly generic zombie movie.
The storyline brought nothing new or innovative to the zombie genre, and it was all something that had been seen before.
While the movie had fairly bad CGI effects, they more than made up for that with the amount of gore and mayhem they tossed into the movie. That was definitely a plus for the movie.
The acting in "Attack of the Southern Fried Zombies" was as to be expected for a movie of this genre and budget. So don't get your hopes up!
The zombie special effects and make-up was adequate, but again really was weighed down by the fact that it is a low budget movie.
This zombie movie was definitely not among the worst of zombie movies around, but there was room for much improvement. And it is hardly the type of movie that you will watch more than once.
