you don't expect it to be boring.

So incredibly mind-numbingly boring and stupid that even Jenna Jameson as a pole dancing zombie doesn't cause a glimmer of interest.

1. Somebody's been watching Skinimax, I see.
Yeah, I gave it about 30 seconds.

3. Nah, just gobsmacked at the choices Netflix makes for streaming.

6. Really?
It was on a pay channel maybe a week ago, too.

2. How is it possible that the words Zombie and Stripper be in the title of a bad movie?
I don't get it..

5. One of the rare zomblie flicks that I have no interest in seeing.
And I've watched some stinkers. :)

7. Sorry, I should have warned you. I made the same mistake a couple of months ago.
I thought the same thing as you, "how could they go wrong with this concept?"

But my god, it was horrible. If zombies can't save a bad movie and strippers can't save a bad movie....then geez, that is one really really really bad movie.

8. That's in my Netflix queue. I like zombies and jugs; will I really be disppointed?

10. More than disappointed-- you will want to return it to them in person so...
you can vent your rage.

I still can't understand why they stream this thing, but don't stream "Galaxy Quest."

(And they don't have "Bloodsuckers" at all.)

9. Ditto to the long-ago Rita Jenrette vehicle "Zombie Island Massacre"
Fails to live up to the title in the worst way.

11. Had to look that one up...
(and why I remember Rita Jenrette)

It's a TROMA flick, so of course it's dreadful. While looking for that, though, I came across the double feature "I Drink Your Blood" with "I Eat your Face." I am embarrassed (or proud, depending on the day) to say I have the DVDs and they redefine dreadful.

But, starring Jenna Jameson and strippers, or the ex-wife of a disgraced congresscritter, makes boring and dreadful inexcusable. Possibly criminal.

12. Will The Stereotyping of Zombies Ever End
Come on Hollywood. Where are the positive portrayals of zombies?
