Sometimes awful is good…

It’s true. Sometimes awful can be good. O.K. Maybe not good, but fun.

A few months ago my buddy Wes came over for a movie night and brought me a gem of a polished turd in the form of a DVD titled ‘Hard Rock Zombies‘.

This travesty was released in 1985 so one can pretty much guess (and correctly) that the hair, make-up and wardobe are going to be horrendous. The music, cinematography, writing, acting, direction and anything else isn’t much better.
The name ‘Hard Rock’ is rather misleading. This band’s music is as hard as Culture Club. Although the actors who play the band members do look like rejects from a Narcotics Anonymous meeting. That said they’re still quite pansy-fied. These are the type of guys my friends and I would have thumped outside the mall in 1985.

Here’s a clip you’ll never be able to extract from your brain:

That was gay and no I’m not a homophobe…

Other than the things mentioned above what are a few of the things that make this movie worth watching a worth avoiding all at the same time?

  • Midgets. And yes, midget zombies. And, yes, midget nazi zombies.
  • Hitler and the Californian Fourth Reich
  • A nazi zombie eats himself.
  • Zombies afraid of Elvis.

Sounds horrid right? Yep. But it’s a must see.

Here’s another clip:
