Movie Reviews of The Zombie Pack
Movie Review: WHAT A STEAL !
Summary: 5 Stars
5 stars for the price of the package! 2 or 3 stars for each movie! These zombie films are not the best zombie films ever made,but for the price you can't go wrong here. When all is said & done you end up paying about $6.50 a movie! Thats a deal & a half for 4 hours of harmless stupid gorey fun.Movie Review: The Zombie Pack
Summary: 5 Stars
Great pack. Only for those with the love for ultimate gore and horrible production. Any true zombie lover will want this pack on the shelf.Movie Review: The Zombie Pack
Summary: 4 Stars
At one point Anchor Bay was the place for horror flicks of the 70s and 80s. In recent years they have started putting out newly produced B-movies that are average at best. Worth watching once, but you aren't in a rush to see them again.
As much as I love Halloween and the Evil Dead flicks how many versions can really be put out before you think enough already?
Well Media-Blasters is the savior. They have put out a lot of cult classic horror films from Italy, something Anchor Bay used to do.
Zombie 3 was directed by Lucio Fulci who apparently at the time was sick and it shows. Claudio Fragasso & Bruno Mettei also directed a couple of scenes of Zombie 3, but are un-credited.
As much as I like Lucio Fulci he can be great with one movie than below average the next. While Zombie 3 isn't the worst film of his career it's far from the best. Overall though Zombie 3 is a fun silly movie.
Zombie 4: After Death was made by Claudio Fragasso and it's a weak movie that doesn't have enough gore and lets face it that is why we are watching these flicks. Bad movie? Sure, but fun? Yes.
And finally we have Zombie 5: Killing Birds, which was released before Zombie 3. It's not uncommon for flicks from Italy to have alternate titles and it's not uncommon when released in the States to have the movie billed as a sequel even if it isn't. Weird though Killing Birds is billed as Zombie 5 when it came out before 3 & 4, but oh well.
Claudio Lattanzi is credited as director, but Killing Birds was actually directed by Joe D'Amato.
Killing Birds might be the worst of the bunch, but I sort of enjoyed it for the simple fact this movie features some of the dumbest characters in a horror movie.
Bottom line is you aren't getting any of the all time greats with the Zombie Pack, and Lucio Fulci and Joe D'Amato have done far better work then what we have here, but you are getting some really cheesy and very fun movies with a decent amount of gore.
Each movie on their own goes for a little over $20, but here you get all 3 for a little under $20. Now that is one hell of a deal.
Right now I'm loving Media-Blasters they are putting out some great cult classics.
Movie Review: zombie 5 is the only bad one
Summary: 4 Stars
this pack contains three movies from the zombie series but it shoud've had zombie 6 instead of 5
zombi 3 is like a collab of Fulci, Mattei, and Fragasso but Fulci left during half the movie they obviously reuse zombie extras and the commentary is very strange (2 actors said that a cast member was actually shot at!)
zombie 4 has a lot look-alike actors in it and a barely there plot theres a lot of zombie shooting and stupidity that makes this really fun
joe d amato made zombie 5 and it has less of a plot then zombie 4 theres nothing here to like joe did a better job with zombie 6
Movie Review: A very easy way to get em all but one....
Summary: 4 Stars
in following to lucio fulci's zombi 2 this box set finishes off the Zombi series. Zombie 3 and 4 are very good and worthy of the first one (zombi 2, since zombi is just the european dawn of the dead... so theres no zombi 1 in actuallity). but zombie 5: killer birds is horrible and unnervingly slow. i still sat through the whole movie since i am dedicated to horror. but if i wasnt i would have avoided it. but hell they all cant be winners. with zombie 3 and 4 you are getting your moneys worth. my greatest applause to shriek show.
