Featuring: Robert Englund. Director: Tobe Hooper.
I love zombies. Zombies make me melt like brain cells in an episode of Nip/Tuck. They are my guilty pleasure. How else could you explain something with a name like Dance of the Dead ending up in my queue? The premise is awful, the story is horrid, the acting is so-so yet I didn't turn it off. Why didn't I just give up and go to sleep? Well, because a zombie had an orgasm in this movie. That kept me wondering what else might happen. Not much else interesting happened but I made it through. Besides zombie orgasms the other redeeming factor of this film was Freddy Kruger (Robert Englund) playing a character that was semi-interesting for most of the movie and really good towards the end. Oh, that and Billy Corgan doing the soundtrack. This is B-movie horror at it's fair to middling best. If you're a zombie aficionado and enjoy the occasional awful movie you'll have a decent time watching this, if not, stay away.

What is it about men and zombies??? My husband has a deep love for them as well. Weirdos.
