Recap:
So there is this new disease that turns the dead into flesh eating zombies, and a scientist proves scientifically thar even removing the heart doesn’t help, you just destroy the brain.
So much for the plot. The rest of a movie is a nonstop gore fest with people who get butchered in the very scene in which they are are introduced. No, wait, there is indeed a story arc with two dudes who are investigating the situation, but it leads nowhere.
Andreas Schnaas is not a filmmaker like Ed Wood who wanted to be a real professional, looking for investors and hiring celebs. He is more like Ray Dennis Stecker who just grabbed a camera and started filming. There is nothing that remotely resembles a plot, or acting, just a bunch of kids enjoying themselves, playpretending and imitating the trash they had seen on VHS, mostly Italian zombi/cannibal flicks, I assume. What the kid’s love best is grossing people out. There is more fake blood and more gore (including what looks like real intestines, which makes sense because professional movie props are expensive) than you see in professional movies. Wait, in a way this is a professional movie. Schnaas’ first movie was distributed internationally, and for this, his second, they even created an English dub. I read that it was meant to be a joke in the first place, but Schnaas declared it the official dub, and it’s easy to see why: it’s hilarious. A few minutes into the movie I thought “great, a comedy”, a few minutes later I thought “nah, it’s too gory to be filed as comedy”. But to be honest it’s really to silly to be a real horror movie.
This is not an actual movie-as-we-know-it. It’s crap and you cannot say anything good about it. But I’ll do it anyway. It’s far from being the worst movie ever. Some people claim that Plan 9 From Outer Space is the worst movie ever, because it won the Golden Turkey award. But that was awarded many years before Uwe Boll made the German Fried Movie, which is the worst movie that I have seen by now, and Zombie 90 really is so much better than these two movies.
