Judge Rhinehole (legendary Forrest J Ackerman) closes down a nudist
colony after numerous pointless complaints from church folks - but hey,
the judge is one of the church-people's uncles, sooo ... The core group
of nudists though don't want to go on with their lives without the colony,
so they decide to commite collective suicide - but not just to die, but to
come back as zombies and kill all the church folks who might try to make
the land the colony was located on their own. Indeed, the church is
quick to turn the place into a bible camp for wayward teens, and weirdly
enough, all the reports of strange goings-on in that camp are suppressed -
like never anybody coming back ... Shelly (Deborah Stern), a very normal
teen with a very healthy interest in sexual matters, is sent to the camp
with the latest group of "sinners" - totally against her will,
because the indoctrination that group tries to perform is way against her
(or any sane human being's) better judgment. But after the first night, it
doesn't seem too bad anymore because the two minders (Bea Lindgren, Darwyn
Carson) are gone. Cool ... until their severed heads are found in the
pool, and other body parts elsewhere. And while Shelly and a few friends
try to find out what's going on, nudist zombies take out pretty much
everyone else in the camp. Now Shelly and a motley crew of weirdoes are on
the run, but most of them fall prey to their own stupid belief or just
stupidity, which the nudist zombies play on. Ultimately, only Shelly is
flown out of the disaster area by helicopter. After her ordeal, Shelly
wants to go one-on-one with the reverend (Dave Robinson) who sent her (and
so many others) to the place ... to find out he's actually one of the
nudist zombies in disguise. In a way, the title Nudist
Colony of the Dead might promise more than it delivers, the actual
nudity in this film is strictly topless level, and there's not too much of
that, either. As a matter of fact, in terms of nudity, the movie's very
tame and in line with the nudist colony movies from the 1950's and 60's
more than anything since. And what you might not have guessed from the
title, this movie has several musical interludes, simplistic and innocent
but sort-of catchy pop tunes, not all that well sung but well enough
placed to serve as an ironic counterpoint to the goings-on, and in fact
they are quite a bit funnier than some of the moronic humour this movie's
driven by (though there are occasional comedic gems in there somewhere,
too). In all, I guess it's an ok party movie, and while I have certainly
been entertained better by other low budget genre comedies, there also
waaay worse (and bigger budgeted ones, too) out there.
