REDNECK ZOMBIES
"Redneck Zombies" has to be, quite simply, the most horrifying
shot-on-video film I’ve ever seen. But maybe that’s got to do
with the fact that I was raised in the genetically-deficient
belt of the United States (although this could explain my
preoccupation with Troma films in the first place). I grew up
around tobacco-chewing, gun-loving, pick-up truck drivers, so
"Redneck Zombies" hits close to home. Much like the characters in
this film (can you call a movie shot on video a film?), escaping
from the plague-like influence of ignorance and defeated alcoholism
was a constant concern. Also like the film, I had to watch many of
my friends get taken over by the disease of
Redneckism.
I have to admit that I have serious misgivings when it comes
to watching shot-on-video features. They usually smack of
half-hearted amateurishness. And, although "Redneck Zombies" is
by no means a modern trash classic, it still has energy to spare
and tries hard enough to warrant a recommendation. Especially
now that Troma has decided to release the UNCUT DIRECTOR’S
PRINT.
