When a street drug turns junkies into an army of giant, mutant flesh-eaters, no hope is left – but one man remains. Hunter’s got nothing left but a beat-up Camero, a trunk full of guns and booze, and a vendetta. He crashes into a small group of survivors, led by an ax-wielding priest named Jesus (Danny Trejo). They’re searching for the promised land – but does it even exist? They better pray for a miracle, because the zombies are hot on their heels. And the psychotic clown with a chainsaw? You don’t even wanna know.
If you want to get the bad out of the way with a movie like this it would be the fact that to spite Danny Trejo being up front and center on the cover he isn’t the real star of this film. This stuff happens all the time and it annoys me. Trejo might be the biggest star in the film, but he isn’t the star. As for the actual film, it isn’t bad at all. It does pack way too much CGI, but it makes the best use for it that it can. It also is a very stylish film that manages to be legit funny from time to time.
And when I say stylish I mean it. This movie at times plays like a video game. It is fast-paced and gives us multicolored blood from time to time for good effect. The real lead actor, Martin Copping, is also a great lead, fits the part, and is hilarious at times. To be straightforward about it, the movie is just a lot of cool fun and well worthy of you checking it out. The transfer is also one of the better ones I’ve seen from Well Go USA using great color and details to make the movie seem even better.
