Dead bodies exposed to toxic waste in a funeral home become zombified.
14 March 2012
A man (Andrew Divoff) who inherited a funeral home from his father and who has some kind of phobia about fire or incinerators fails to dispose of bodies scheduled for cremation including a body bag of toxic refuse left over from his deceased father's side business of toxic waste disposal. You got it. Dead bodies + toxic materials = reanimated dead bodies. Zombies.

Well who doesn't like zombie movies? It's such a creepy idea. One appealing to a primitive fear: the return of the dead. Unfortunately this one is a late bloomer; and too little, too late, to make it worth your time. It's a "horror comedy" and runs about 1hr 20mins --or so-- and doesn't really get going until close to an hour in. Nothing much happens before then. The man, suspecting something is going on with his pile of stinking dead bodies (Maybe he saw one move?), sets up a camera in the crematorium to confirm his suspicions. There is 1 minor zombie incidents involving a SINGLE zombie within the space of the first 53 mins, or so, of this movie.

Filling the afore mentioned void are the antics of weed smoking employees and a visit from the man's brother (Jeffery Combs) who needs mucho dinero and who thinks his brother is bats when he tells him about what's going on in the funeral home. He wastes no time getting on his mobile pronto with his lawyer to get the wheels rolling for his brother's certification so he can sell the place and collect said dinero. Sara Palin is parodied in the movie and appears on TV in it. Later, in the better part of the movie (the last 25mins or so), she makes an appearance at the funeral home. I think 4 stars is very generous. Do you want to see a 4 star (or less) out of 10 movie? Your choice. Love, Boloxxxi.
