Zombie Christ

If you don't get it, you're gonna be pissed...Try to think of the most offensive thing you can, and then pop Zombie Christ into the DVD player, and see if that still tops your list.  Zombie Christ is bound to offend many, but sure to give others a real chuckle.  This is a B-rated flick, as you might of guessed, that was written, directed and produced by the notorious Bill Zebub.  Zebub definitely pushes the envelope with this film by tackling such topics as Christianity, blastphemy and mythology.  The story lies around the resurrection of Jesus, as a skeletal zombie, and his quest to immortalize his true love Mary Magdalene.  The story in theory is interesting, but it is the humor mixed with totally off the wall shit that makes this film fall into the cult classic file.  There are things that you thought you never would see captured on film here, like a nun being molested by a chicken leg and a skeleton walking on water.  You have to take this film for what it is, pure B-movie cult classic.  The acting is subpar, as per most Zebub pictures, but this one is able to keep your attention, due to all of the weird things going on.  If you're not laughing at the pathetic, prop skeloton (main character), then you've either turned this thing off or you don't get it.

Bottom Line:  A horror/comedy soon to be cult classic.  I dug that the film had this early 70's sense about it.  The plot is just strong enough to keep your interest, and there is enough wierd shit going on to keep you glued to the screen.  You have to go into this film, knowing it is a goof, or you will be highly offended.
