Zombie Strippers: Critic Reviews

Those excited by the words Zombie Strippers alone won't be disappointed by Jay Lee's unabashedly schlocky film, which he wrote, directed, shot and edited.

I stayed to the bitter end out of some romantic sense of professional obligation. Don't make that same mistake!

It barely matters that Zombie Strippers is a tediously overextended satire. It's called Zombie Strippers.

A consistently hilarious, brutal, and titillating mash-up of Return of the Living Dead and Showgirls that actually beats out Mark Pirro's Nudist Colony of the Dead for the unofficial title of best naked zombie movie ever.

Nifty title, execrable film.

By the time the film moves toward its conclusion and the gross-out factor really starts to rise, any semblance of even an exploitation story has fallen away like so many lopped-off limbs.

A one-joke pic that duly delivers on its titular promise to rapidly depleting returns.

Shot on ugly digital video with Troma-grade special effects, campy humor and frighteningly bad acting, Zombie Strippers should provide many laughs for stoners watching it on video.

Stripping away all the lame political satire and cutting to the chase, there's admittedly something perversely effective about Jameson and company strutting their undead stuff against the appropriate death metal soundtrack.

Zombie Strippers is a B-movie whose ideas and wit set it well above the great unwashed of the genre.

...an inept, flat-out worthless piece of work...

Proceed directly to the 'S' section of your local video shop and rent Shaun Of The Dead again instead.

With a budget of perhaps 100, half the movie involves people having their heads ripped off with the rest devoted to porn stars jiggling their plastic boobs before being shot in the head. Someone please shoot me, too.

Jay Lee's wannabe cult flick will draw cackles from forgiving fans of cheap'n'cheesy sexploitation.

A brilliantly high-concept title and some decent gore aside, you're better off watching the version in your head. It will be infinitely more fun and have markedly improved production values.

With a hilariously over-the-top B-movie vibe, this nutty gorefest keeps us chuckling all the way through. And underneath the outrageous wackiness, there's some playful thematic wit at work as well.

Undemanding fans of softcore nudity and hardcore gore will chew it down, but real horror afficionados will crave more meat on the bone.

Enjoyable horror comedy that delivers on the promise of the title, aided by some decent effects and a witty script.

It's cleverly done with lots of nods to other zombie films. You'll probably catch it on DVD

Zombie horror is always dark, of course, but not always for the same reasons. Here the darkness comes from a sense of humour that adds layers to the standard zombie pre-sets

Here's a title that lives up to its expectations; Jay Lee's schlockingly funny horror flick is filled with inventive ideas and delivers in spades for fans of the genre

Acting is hardly of great consequence in a movie where everyone involved seems a little too in on the joke, as if distancing themselves from material that would simply be vile if it weren't so outrageously over the top.

A bloody good time

Over the years I've seen Jenna Jameson do lot of things in a lot of movies, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've ever seen her reading Nietzsche.

It is a serviceable horror comedy that will ride well on [Jenna] Jameson's name recognition until the gag wears thin...
