Review of FleshEater: Revenge of the Living Dead (1988) by Alexis D — 06 Mar 2011

On Halloween, a group of teenagers take a hayride into the countryside for a little party of their own, when they are attacked by Flesheater (S. William Hinzman), a zombie that was uncovered by a local farmer. Soon the epidemic spreads to a small town, unleashing a night of hellish attacks that take hold of the population.

Flesheater (Zombie Nosh) plays like an elementary Night of the Living Dead, with it's forced acting and dodgy cinematography. Most of the dialogue sounds like it was recorded in a small room without a hint of concentration. It felt like they were reading off score cards. On top of that, I had to mute the volume whenever one of the females got attacked. It was highly annoying whenever they screamed; I couldn't wait for them to be killed off. The gore, however, was pretty nice with some choice cuts coming from Flesheater whenever he attacked one of the many nude girls in the film.

I know the film is not related to Night of the Living Dead, but I can't help but feel like Flesheater (Zombie Nosh) was a demo to the classic. But, the film holds it's own and is worth a viewing for zombie enthusiasts.
