i don't mind watching poorly made movies. they're usually entertaining in their own right. what i do mind is a title/cover intended to dupe the viewer.

'night of the naked dead' implies 'night of the living dead' (aka zombies), but they're naked. this has neither

--spoilers--

what you do have is a poorly written ghost story about two people who died in the 50's coming back to the house where it happened (well, near by, in 'the marshes')

the girl is naked when she shows up on the porch. it's a poorly backlit shot of her for 2 seconds. that's it

as for 'the dead'... it's her and the guy who killed her the first time posing as a cop. those are the two dead people. they look normal, just act odd

i can't tell whether the two leads are any good, because the dialog they gave them is atrocious. the girl has an irish/Scottish accent (i guess?) but its very inconsistent. either she is irish/Scottish and is trying to hide her accent; or she's not and is trying to act the accent? either way she sounds off the whole time

i do applaud the casting director for getting very average looking people. no super models here. the lead guy looks like someone from your softball league.

there's randomly cut scenes (literally appear at random) of a bizarre stuffed-animal fetish girl laughing insanely into the camera that for the love of pete i have no idea her purpose

then there's the two creepy old guys who appear out of nowhere; one of them nude for no apparent reason.

slow, dumb, boring, unoriginal. poorly lit and poorly edited.

something smells... and i think its this movie!

Emma owns a nice Bed and Breakfast on Cape Cod with a secret room, a view of the marsh, an overdue mortgage, and writer's block. Strange unexplained weather knocks out electricity except for Emma's generator. Veronica (Alexandra Creteau) shows up at her door naked and with a Russian accent thinking it is 1957. Other strange things happen as what is going on is not fully explained midst the choppy low budget sound.

We never get to see the girl on the DVD cover as this is NOT A ZOMBIE FILM as one would think. The acting is also bad. Sarah Michelle was unconvincing in her role described as a zombie woman. Junius Podrug wrote, directed, and produced this film. He hadn't done anything before this or since according to IMDB.

Guide: F-bomb. Nudity (Sarah Michelle, Alexandra Creteau)

. . . and that it's crazy that I give a "thumbs down" mark of "one" to fewer than 1% of the movies I watch, and that I am too tender-hearted about giving "bonus points" for "effort" or "participation." Since NIGHT OF THE NAKED DEAD shows NO evidence of honest effort or even thoughtful participation, I feel few qualms about shafting this sleepwalk with the lowest possible score. The cast is talentless and unattractive, the special effects look like the result of "Brain Damage" (which is what the distributor of this crock calls itself), the dialog is poorly improvised, there is no continuity or coherent story, nothing is humorous or the least bit "campy," and no one shows the faintest flicker of "promise." This merely rips off zombie popularizer George Romero's title. As it turns out, there ARE no zombies here, naked or otherwise. There MIGHT be a few flashes of intended "nudity," but if so, they are shot in the same Unerotic, bad-home-movie fashion as everything else, and thus go by unnoticed. I've given tons of movies 9's and 10's this year; compared to any of them, NIGHT OF THE NAKED DEAD deserves something in the 0.31 to 0.47 range (that's less than one-half of one point on a 10-point scale).
