In the very near future, all schoolgirls between the ages 15 and 17
die, die and come back as flesh eating zombies - in schoolgirl uniforms,
naturally - who for some reason are nicknamed Stacys. To kill them again,
gouvernment has installed the Romero Repeat Kill Troops (in a not
so subtle reference to zombie-director George Romero) while the top seller
in the shops is a chainsaw called Blues Campbell Right Hand (a
subtler and funnier reference to Bruce Campbell in Evil
Dead) - to saw up your Stacys (Stacys, you know, can't be killed
that easily, even their seperated bodyparts usually tend to live on for
quite a while, but if they are sawed up real good, they can't do too much
of a damage, now can they).
Pretty much all the men have joined up with the Romero Repeat Kill
Troops, which is slowly becoming a squad of psychos who can't really
handle the stress, only puppet maker Shibu (Toshinori Omi) has decided to
stick with his old job of making puppets, even if nobody seems to
appreciate puppets (or puppet theatre) anymore. One day, cute schoolgirl
Eiko (Natsuki Kato) pays Shibu a visit. She's not yet a Stacy, but she's
on the brink, already suffering (?) from what they call
pre-mortem-ecstasy, and she asks Shibu to repeat-kill her once she has
died and turned into a Stacy. Shibu agrees only very reluctantly, and
against all odds, the two of them fall in love.
Meanwhile, over at Romero-headquarters, a former art school, the Repeat
Kill Troops break down by the numbers, and on of the soldiers is such a
nervous wreck that he releases all the Stacys kept in the facility for
research purposes, even if this means his own violent death. Another one
finds his lost love among the Stacys and tries to make an escape with her,
even if she now is a flesh-eating zombie (which proves that love knows no
bounds). And yet another confesses he is a serial killer who killed and
cut up quite a number of schoolgirls 10 years ago - an act which may have
started the whole Stacy crisis ...
In the end, Eiko dies and Shibu repeat-kills her, just like she
requested, but he did it out of love, which puts a new spin on the whole
Stacy thing, as all of a sudden, they stop to eat other people, start to
act responsible, and before long they even go into politics and turn out
to be the next step in human evolution ...
Trash film fans like myself just can't help but love zombie girls in
schoolgirl uniforms, andmuch of the film is just as over-the-top as this
idea in itself sounds ... however, the film is not quite as good as its
great concept: At times the film tries way too hard to be meaningful for
its own good, especially since its basic message - love changes
everything - is quite so cheesy. At other times, the film goes for
cheap slapstick when it doesn't need to and totally ruins some of its
better jokes. On the plus side though, the film is also full of
wonderfully crude gore scenes that are always tongue-in-cheek ...
and then of course, I can't help but loving zombie girls in schoolgirl
uniforms.
