Great Film and Different take on the zombie genre. This was a great film and I am happy to own the DVD. I don't care what bad comments people say about this film. Treat Williams shows that he is very versatile. The film's starts out with 2 jewel thief zombies robbing a jewelery store. Detectives Roger Mortis(Treat Williams) and Doug Bigelow(Joe Piscopo) arrive on the scene. They take out the 2 zombies and then Rebecca Smythers(Clare Kirkconnell) calls the 2 detectives down because she discovers that there's a certain chemical that's being used to bring back the dead. When the 2 detectives head to Dante Pharmaceuticals and meet the head of Public Relations, Randi James(Lindsay Frost). They find a room that decompresses animals. Doug snoops around and finds the resurrection room where he meets a 400 pound plus biker zombie. Roger hears shots and comes to Doug's aid. Unfortunately, Roger gets locked in the decompression room and dies. Doug and Rebecca bring Roger back. And now Roger has 10 to 12 hours to find his murderer. This film has a nice blend of comedy and horror. This film gets 10 stars out of 10.

I recently added this to the list of movies I need to buy. I haven't seen it yet though.
I was sold on this movie when I heard "Treat Williams" & "zombies."

Sounds like a good film to me also, I think I may just have to go check my local store for it later.

My older brother is the one who introduced me to this film back in '89 and I liked it ever since. There are some lame things in the film but it's all good. The film is posted up on YouTube. Here's the link to it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCan72GLm7c

I ordered this off Amazon last night for really cheap. Will report back here once I watch it. So if anybody wants this movie, it's rather affordable on the net. I think my copy was like $7 something brand new.

Watched this yesterday & dug it. It was pretty silly overall but a fun movie. It was a nice little buddy cop/action/zombie/sci-fi/comedy hybrid that worked for the most part. Piscopo's one-liners & quips fell flat most of the time but then again, that's Joe Piscopo in general. He was ok in this overall though. I liked Treat Williams in this but then again, I like him in about anything.
I felt Darren McGavin & Vincent Price were wasted though. The movie needed more of them.
Overall, a fun little movie that is going for rather cheap online at the moment.
