About this movie

Zombies invade the Australian Outback in this brain-splattered, Mad Max-meets-the-undead thrill ride. When an apocalyptic event turns everyone around him—including his wife and daughter—into marauding zombies, everyman mechanic Barry arms himself to the teeth, soups up his car, and hits the road in order to rescue his sister from a deranged, disco-dancing mad doctor. Bursting with high-octane car chases, crazy-cool homemade weaponry, and enough blood-and-guts gore to satisfy hardcore horror fans, WYRMWOOD takes the zombie flick to bone-crunchingly berserk new heights.

Based off the trailer, I thought this movie would lean more towards the comedic. Unfortunately it tried to be straight horror with some heavy-handed jokes thrown in. This would be fine on its own, but with such a ridiculous premise, it felt like it took itself too seriously. Good, not great. Worth a rent, but that's about it.

An awesome and absolutely well needed change to the zombie genre. It's got a goofy funny feel to it without making it bad. The fact that this is a B rated film makes it even better. It's really hard to get me to like a B rated film, so for me to like this one is saying something. If you're coming at this with The Walking Dead or Dawn of the Dead in mind, you're going to be sorely disappointed. Think 28 Days Later meets Shawn of the Dead, with a twist of originality. Can't wait to see what they do with the TV series. Hopefully it's available in the US!

This maybe the best independent film I have seen in a long time. It may seem like it took ideas of mad max and dawn of the dead but this film had some new and totally original stuff in it. Which a lot of horror or zombie flicks have definitely never done. Being original and creative was what made this film stand out. It was intriguing and drew me in. Heck I bought it on DVD today because I enjoyed it so much.
