Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Excellent, a Must See
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
View MoreStrong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
View MoreATOM THE AMAZING ZOMBIE KILLER is a true return to those days when you picked up some fun/whacked out films at the video store just to see what it was.That's how a lot of us discovered Troma films. You either got into them and enjoyed their whacked out sensibilities or you thought they were too stupid too keep watching. Those of us that fall into the former camp can embrace this film as a Troma film we'd never heard of. Great intro w/faux "adjust your tracking set-up" that will probably have you ejecting the tape to see if it's damaged or fast forwarding to avoid the" bad spots". If anyone says they don't make them like that anymore (and, who besides Troma ever really did?),you can point them to this film and be assured that this will become a guilty pleasure they'll either be embarrassed to admit they've seen,or tell you not to recommend films to them anymore.Highly recommended to all Tromaddicts.
View MoreAll around excellent film! Action, laughs, twists, what else can you ask for? Better than Con Air. I went to the 2nd screening at Starfest 2012 and once again at an actual movie theater for another screening. It gets better every time I watch it. The laughs are hilarious and the gore and effects are awesome. An original "Zombie" movie in a long time that's worth watching. Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer is an exciting roller coaster ride from beginning to end and has the tradition of retro horror and independent modernism that can be viewed by MATURE audiences only and loved by the masses. This film is Cult Classic in the making and should be watched by everyone.
View MoreI think it was the fall of '08 when BizJack/Flemco first announced the movie. I was excited! My favorite movie of theirs is Ghettoman... year after year the need to see this film kept getting stronger and stronger.. then i finally see it aaaaaaaand........... IT'S FRIGGIN' AMAZING!! It has everything you want in a film! I honestly can't think of anything that i didn't like about the movie.... i just wish i was a little bit longer.. like say an epic 3 hour flick! haha but then again... how could you not love every minute of this when you're a FanBoy of Richard Taylor & Zack Beins? I'd recommend this movie to just about anyone.. unless you have a weak stomach, of course.. there is A LOT of blood and guts.. and even POO! :D oh, and the soundtrack is also amazing.. lots of good bands and the movie score by Tim Johnson.. he does great work.. i'd recommend checking him out, too
View MoreThis is really great movie. It takes the zombie genre and puts a new and cool take on it. You can tell that the filmmakers were passionate about this movie. It catches you right from the beginning with its awesome theme song and continually draws you in more. It has some really cool zombie kills and two of the best I have ever seen. Not only does it have zombies it also has some cool bowling scenes in it. If you love movies like "Chillerama" you will definitely enjoy the hell out of this movie. If you love zombie movies this one you must see again and again. I instantly loved this movie and it was really cool seeing this movie at midnight with an audience of horror fans. Everybody in the audience had a blast watching this movie and you will too. Now go see it.
