Zombie Wars starts with a voiceover. A young lady is explaining that they don’t know what started the Zombie Apocalypse. Or it spread by a comet (Night of the Comet anyone?) Others said it was god punishing mankind. 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 surviving humans live in camps and train from birth to fight. It is the only way to survive in a world where they are food. Our “good guy” 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 caged for their 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. The Zombies take one of the brothers and his new female friend. They are lead to the Zombie camp and left together. I guess they are going to be used 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 Scoring
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.
