Barbara has decided to take advantage of a beautiful fall day to have a picnic. Billy has decided to take advantage of Barbara. Barbara packed a basketful of goodies, but Billy is hungry for something else. Sadly for him, these woods are home to pests that need more than just bug spray and those pests are hungry for human flesh! These woods are infested with zombies!
Fortunately for Barbara, the Anti-Zombie Force, a crack commando unit specially trained to handle the undead, is tracking this flesh eating horde. Lead by Lieutenant Colonel Lance Justice, the AZF springs into action and prepares to risk their lives to exterminate yet another batch of undead vermin.
In a world where zombies rule, they are humanity’s best and last hope to stop the zombie hordes.
“COME GET SOME SUM YOU UGLY BITCH!” indeed. Yowzah, that Dalton Smith dude is definitely born again hard.
Way cool trailer guys. Sometime you need to make a movie with your studio logo then have the title looked spiced in with an entirely different type face than the other credits. Would give the movie that beloved drive-in ‘bait & switch’ vibe so familiar to geezers with walkers. Still remember trying to watch “Count Dracula’s Great Love” on the Ch. 12 Late Show & just couldn’t get into it. Next week saw an ad for an ‘all new’ double feature with The Acme Drive-In ballyhooing “Cemetery Girls” & “Graveyard Tramps”. Of course yrs. truly had to be there bright & early Friday night to get a place in the front row. Eventually dusk arrives & “CG” begins with some dude getting an axe buried in his head. I’m thinking “Oh $#%^!” & getting a bad feeling when it keeps being repeated. Yep, turns out to be the Naschy movie with a new title spliced in. Oh well… still one more to go which turned out to be the 1973 classic (?) “Invasion of the Bee Girls” with the same replaced title gimmick. At least that was fun & featured Victoria along with William Smith nine years before he taught a young Conan the philosophy of The Riddle of Steel for the first (and last) time. Anyway, if I didn’t have to work every night during the entire run I’d get caught by the gimmick & began admiring the releasing company’s audacity.
Was such a movie junkie that near the end of the drive-in era I’d go to The Acme (usually) & catch the ‘dusk till dawn’ screening even though I had all the movies on videotape. Those were wonderful times with unrated movies playing in cinemas. LOTS of Italian rip-offs of whatever had been popular the year before & distribution so messed up that “Basket Case” & “The Evil Dead” played here after the tapes had been released. Still fun but by that time there were no longer any surgical masks to be given out at the box office for Hennenlotter’s classic. One of the neatest gimmicks ever was when The Jolly Roger showed Hammer movies all night & I got to experience a retrospective of “Plague of the Zombies”, “The Mummy’s Shroud”, “Horror of Frankenstein” (bleech…. & “Countess Dracula”. Walked into the concession stand & they had an actual coffin with chains around it. Had so much fun that Friday night that I went back the next day & watched them all again. Was hoping something fanged & lovely would seductively exit the coffin but the darn thing was still chained when I heard the last call over the speaker & hit the place for enough chow to last the night. Still have fond memories of the last movie I ever saw at The Acme: a worn-out, battered, splicey 35mm print of “Night of the Living Dead”. How perfect a way to end an era.
Loved watching them all night & didn’t know at the time this was getting me in shape for the 24 hr. SF & Horror Marathons at The Drexel North in Columbus.
Oops…. sorry for rambling on & on.
Looking forward to seeing the completed movies guys. My son told me The Sorg Opera House in Middletown was repaired & operating again. Would be a wonderfully decrepit place for a premiere. They even have a ghost. Before they had to close for a while I saw movies like “TCM Pt.2″ video projected on a large slapped together screen. Probably wouldn’t cost much to rent & since they no longer have film projectors all you’d have to do is put the DVD in & let the blood, guts & luscious hooters fly.
Hang in there amigos, Dan
