Revenge of the Dead
I'm almost ashamed to say I didn't follow everything in this movie. People keep appearing and disappearing throughout it. There also seemed to be some scenes that had no real purpose, but maybe this flick was just too deep (cough cough) for me. I have a few problems with this film. First, lets start with the title, Revenge of the Dead. There was no revenge to be had! Second, the cover shows multiple zombies ripping the streets apart. There were a total of TWO zombies in the movie, and neither looked that menacing. Now, the plot. I'll break it down as simple as I can. Basically, this preist decides to undergo some sort of ritual that makes him rise from the dead on a daily basis and raise havock. Think Pet Semeary, only really long and boreing. 1 out of 5.
