Viva_Chiba I am a big fan of zombie films as i am a big fan of Hong Kong films, so i couldn't skip this one.Bio-Zombie is a pretty good and funny horror comedy, spoofing the Dawn of the dead scenario (shopping mall full of zombies), Bio-zombie is not a gore fest, it's more like a horror comedy that everybody can watch.Besides the spoof of the Dawn of the dead scenario, there are many homages to video games (Resident Evil and House of the dead) and other situations found in horror movies.My only complaint are the first 20 or 30 minutes, they are pretty boring and i was almost going to turn-off the movie, but the rest of the movie is pretty good.

poe426 It's almost impossible to think of another director who has "inspired" more movies than George A. Romero. His creative reach transcends geographical boundaries: it is Universal. I won't bother to list the countries of origin of every Romero rip-off I've ever seen (except to say, again, that the phenomenon is Universal). But perhaps "rip-off" is too harsh a term. Romero, after all, has created (with the help of John Russo and Company) his own genre- the flesh-eating zombie film. Very well: having given birth to his own genre, he has inspired filmmakers of every possible stripe, from every corner of the globe. (Which is why I"ve referred to him elsewhere as the single most important independent filmmaker of the past 40 years.) Far better than VERSUS or JUNK or any of the other Asian zombie films, the lighter weight BIO ZOMBIE (with its nod to Romero's mini-epic, THE CRAZIES) is great fun. If wannabe zombie-movie makers want to know how to go about it, check out BIO ZOMBIE. There's always room for one more.

spacemonkey_fg When you watch Bio Zombie its pretty damn obvious that Asian horror filmmakers are just as infatuated with Romeros zombie creations as we are.The movie is about these two slacker looser types who work in a video store down at the local mall. While they are driving their bosses car from the auto shop they hit a strange man with a suit case containing a liquid that when ingested will turn anyone into raving flesh eating zombies. They mistake the liquid for a soda bottle, some one drinks it and the zombie fun begins.The first half is just getting to know the characters so the actual zombie action doesn't begin right away, but the funny dialog and characters will keep you interested until the undead starts to roll in. The first half kind of feels like Mallrats with all these crazy young characters who's life depends on being in the mall for 95% of their lives. I mean we get to losers as leads (kind of like Jay and Silent Bob) we get the asshole who treats his girl like crap (like Ben Afflecks character in Mallrats), lets face it the influences from Kevin Smiths films on this one are also blatantly obvious.The second half of the movie is when the zombies start to roll in. This half of the movie reminded me a lot of Romeros Dawn of the Dead and hey there's no denying that Romeros film was an obvious inspiration for this here flick. You know, zombies in a mall, people running and hiding from them in the stores. You know the drill.What disappointed me a bit about this movie was its obvious lack of gore! I was expecting a blood bath, but no, surprisingly the movie showed a lot of restraint in this department. Could it have been because of its small budget? Or where there other reasons for the lack of the red stuff? I don't know, but after a while I was feeling a bit cheated. Not only that but the actual zombie make up wasn't all that great, sometimes you could see that it was just appliances glued to the actors faces...and that really really sucked for me. In fact its the worst part of the film. Hey! If your making a zombie movie, at least make the undead look cool! But the movie manages to award us with something else instead. We might not have cool looking zombies or buckets of blood and guts (the camera actually shys away from showing us the blood and guts on many occasions) but we get great characters! Woody and Bee are funny guys, they are lovable slackers and you'll be entertained by their funny situations and hilarious dialog.The direction was inventive as well, there were some really cool shots in there that caught me off guard. Like for example, there were some visual references to the house of the Dead video game! Now before you go saying something about how Uwe Boll did it and it sucked (and you'd be right!), this director actually did it right! You have to see it to understand but it was very original. There were many other cool shots in the film that showed the director was creative with his shots.All in all a fun zombie movie with great characters, but not enough gore. Think of it as Mallrats meats Dawn of the Dead and you'll have an idea of what your going to see! Rating: 3 out 5

aznraverb0ii this movie is great. It starts out FUNNY but progresses to be more serious near the end with funny gimmicks that don't really ruin the mood of the movie. The Budget is low but that doesn't make it a bad movie and it's hard making a Zombie Movie Good and Funny and this really does a good job and it has Emotions in it. It's not just all about gore but it has some good friendship story about the 2 main charachters i was suprised that they added some interesting side story to make it more sad then funny near the end.I love the funny stuff they put in the movie it's VERY smart.This is also not only the greatest dark comedy movie but a great TEEN Party movie! GET THIS MOVIE SPREAD THE WORD!This MOVIE ROCKS!
