Zombie Wars starts with a voiceover as a young lady is explaining that they don’t know what started the Zombie Apocalypse, some said it might have been spread by a comet (paying homage to Night of the Comet?) while others said it was god punishing us. Whatever the case, fifty years have passed since the zombies have overrun humanity, and now they are taking prisoners, breeding humans like farm animals.
The humans that survive live in camps and train from birth to fight, to survive in a world where they are seen as food. These survivors free humans bred for food, hoping to educate and turn them into more freedom fighters if they can.
Two brothers free several young woman from Zombie enslavement, complete with B grade special effects and awkward dialogue. Back at the camp the girls are put into a cage for own protection. As Zombie slaves they don’t know English, but the zombies did see fit to keep them clean and clothed, which does seem odd doesn’t it?
That night the Zombies find the camp, overrunning it. One of the brothers is captured along with his newly saved/unsaved female friend. They are taken back to the Zombie camp and left together, presumably to breed and make more food?
The plot doesn’t get a lot better. There is some infighting, politics, but in the end the movie just doesn’t hit on all cylinders.
Zombie Wars scored a 21/100, putting it in Just Bad territory. The main thing that cost Zombie Wars points was the quality of the dialogue, the low quality special effects, and some of the acting was fairly wooden and silly. Combined with a well trodden storyline, there just wasn’t anything here that hasn’t been done better elsewhere.
Unless you are really bored, and just have nothing left to watch, I’d pass on Zombie Wars.
