“They like their music loud and their victims fresh!”
Sometimes a movie is generous enough to tell you everything you need to know about it with just its title. Skater-slash-SOV horror maestro, Todd Jason Cook (aka Todd Falcon), does just that with DEATH METAL ZOMBIES: A movie featuring lots of death metal, and also lots of zombies.
The film follows a young metalhead named Brad who comes into owning a one-of-a-kind tape by legendary metal band, Living Corpse (foreshadowing!). Unbeknownst to him, the tape contains a special track titled “Zombiefied” (more foreshadowing!) which turns its listeners, including Brad and his headbanger friends, into flesh-eating zombies. As the zombies begin to multiply and attack, it’s up to Brad’s girlfriend, Angel, to find the tape and stop them before it’s too late.
