Christmas Corpse


 
 
 
 
A CADAVER CHRISTMAS-2011-Thisblack comedy gore film begins with a toilet bowl flushing. Small town idiots battle corpses come back to life from a morgue in the local college. The group includes a fat bartender, a drunk, a stupid former sheriff, the college janitor and a guy arrested for having sex with a goat (he later has sex with a corpse). Later a female security guard joins them and they fight the zombies with a mop, a plunger and a snow shovel. It's all a REANIMATOR like experiment by a teacher gone wrong, although this clearly influenced more by Peter Jackson's DEAD ALIVE.
 
Director Joe Zerull shot it to look like a grainy super 8 film. There's a ton of gore and some clever and funny parts but goes on too long and gets a little full of its self. I suppose killing zombies while “Oh Holy Night” plays might seem funny to some people...
 
Thanks for reading!
