Not too far in the future, a street drug has turned almost all of
humankind into flesh-eating zombies. Hunter (Martin Kopping) is one of the
few humans left, and he has made it his mission to destroy all zombies,
ever since zombies have killed his wife and child (while he was admittedly
high on the zombie drug). So he drives the countryside looking for zombies
to kill (for good) - until he's shot at in full drive by another survivor,
Lyle (Jake Suazo), who, as he says, mistook him for a zombie, despite the
fact that Hunter was driving a car. As a result, Hunter's car is crashed,
but he is welcomed with open arms into Lyle's tribe, something akin to a
patchwork family led by father Jesus (Tanny Trejo). Especially the two
women of the tribe, Debbie (Jade Regier) and Alison (Clare Niederpruem)
are more than happy about the handsome male's new arrival, but while
promiscuous Debbie does everything to seduce him, Alison gets him into bed
in the end. However, it seems Hunter has also attracted zombies to the
little tribe, and soon enough, Lyle is history, so is Jesus, the others
make a hasty escape and try to make their way to an airfield to snatch an
airplane and make it to an uninhabited island. But the way there is of
course riddled with threats to out heroes' lives, and quite a few more of
the little group die - including the pilot who was to fly the airplane.
What's Hunter and company have to learn they not only fight zombies now
but also monsters that seem to have mutated out of mere zombies. Well,
it all ends in multiple explosions, Hunter dying a hero's death (or maybe
not), and of the whole group only Alison and her little brother (Jason K.
Wixom) getting away, but not by plane as planned, but by car into the
unknown that might or might not be populated by zombies ... Zombie
Hunters is of course not the best zombie movie ever made, or the
funniest zombie comedy - but that doesn't mean it isn't wildly
entertaining, mixing the best ingredients of 1980's horror and action
movies of the B variety together with more than just a hint of irony - and
what makes the movie really worth its while is its fast pace and well-done
action sequences, counterbalanced by its macabre (but not moronic)
approach and its over the top gore scenes. Sure there are plotholes large
enough to drive a schoolbus through every now and again, and the film
could have done with a bit more subtlety quite a few times there - but
consumed with plenty of beer and a few mates, it's also amazing fun!
