Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead Review
What can we say about Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead? It almost leaves us speachless... This is, in our opinion, a terrible, terrible film. We realize that it's an independent film, but that is NO EXCUSE for the absolute slap in the face that this film delivers. It was painful for us to get through only 15 minutes, let alone the entire flick... which we're pretty sure gave us eye cancer... Don't waste your time on this one.Don't get us wrong, we're big fans of zomedies... which apparantly this film is trying to be. We liked Evil Dead, we liked Undead or Alive, heck, we even liked Dead & Deader... (See our reviews!) but this movie delivers nothing but potty "humor", terrible acting and a horrible story.
From what we could tell, this flick was trying to be stupid funny like The Naked Gun & Airplane... but it missed the target by miles. Instead of great one liners and clever slapstick comedy, we get fed scenes of explosive diareahha, zombies fingering assholes, hilbillies humping frozen chickens and so many more unpleasant and horrible scenes that we just don't want to bring up.
The acting is so sub-par that it shouldn't be called acting. At every point in this film we COULD NOT believe the characters. In many other flick you forget you're watching someone as an actor, and get lost in their character and the story, but not in this one. It was so obvious that these people didn't know what they were doing from the start, that if you tried to get into the story, you were slapped in the face by a shameless boob shot or director cameo.
Oh, and one more thing... they tried to make it a musical. WHAT THE F*CK!?!? The songs didn't make sense, and were completely out of place. Just when you thought the film wasn't going any lower... someone starts singing. It's enough to impale your head on a spike.
Overall... well, if you don't know what we're going to recommend, then you might actually like this movie.
Overall Score: 0.5/5 Stars
Best Zombie Kill: They were all cheesy and badly made but... a zombie melts when it's fed whisky. *insert tumbleweed here*
