MUTANT VAMPIRE ZOMBIES FROM THE 'HOOD! follows an unlikely group of inner-city survivors who fight to flee a city now free of gang-bangers, but infested with blood-sucking, sex-starved zombies instead. C. Thomas Howell plays the last man standing in the L.A.P.D. who must team up with the survivors of two rival street gangs as they fight their way across the city to the home of a brilliant scientist and his beautiful and brilliant daughter.

Excellent but underrated film

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Mutant Vampire Zombies from the 'Hood' (2008) ** (out of 4) First off, if you're coming to a movie with a title like this, you really shouldn't be expecting the work of Orson Welles. A solar flare crosses paths with the Earth, which turns most people into the title characters. There's a small group of survivors in Los Angeles and they're quite an interesting mix as we have white cop (C.Thomas Howell) and rival black and Chinese gang members. At just 81-minutes and featuring a terrific title, MUTANT VAMPIRE ZOMBIES FROM THE 'HOOD' is just what you'd expect to see at a drive-in forty-years ago when this type of exploitation was getting produced in mass numbers. Of course, today there's no way anything like this could ever come close to a theater but that's too bad because fans of trashy, silly exploitation should be able to get a few laughs out of this film, which is a lot better than you might think. Obviously the budget is extremely low but I give credit to director/co-writer Thunder Levin and his writing partner George Saunders for making up for that by delivering some nice characters, some fun dialogue and a rather interesting set-up for a good time. Having rival gangs and a cop having to team up isn't exactly the most original thing as it was done in previous movies but it works here because the characters are so memorable and most shocking is that you begin to care for them and want to see them live, which is usually something these movies never pull off. The dialogue is also fun for fans of the genre because there's mention of George Romero and various zombie pictures from the past few decades. I was also surprised to see how good the performances were including C. Thomas Howell who doesn't seem bitter about appearing in something like this and instead gives it his all. I also really enjoyed Tyshawn Bryant in the role of G-Dog. The movie features some funny sex scenes, some nudity and quite a bit of CGI gore to keep things moving. This isn't a classic or even a good movie but I think it's a good example of taking a small budget and little story and doing something good with it.

Written and Directed by: Thunder Levin.Really enjoyable fright flick with some laughs,Very much like ZOMBIELAND.Feels like a Blaxploitation rift by a Tarantino or Fred Williamson.Enjoyed the Urban feel when seems most types of these films take place in a small town or remote,These sets ARE NOT out of the way,'You are Knee Deep In URBAN DECAY !' More than adequate cast including -C. Thomas Howell ( Asylum Studios alum nowadays) and GregAlan Williams ( From BAYWATCH TV) and Johanna Watts ( Soon to be be seen in American BATTLESHIP) brings a realness into a Mutant,Vampire& Zombie environ.Sound track was pretty good with VITAL,Doing most of the soundtrack justice.Some nice lines of dialogue and some borrowed to great effect.

this was a great movie. I was expecting a poorly made low budget movie with lots of funny bad actors instead i found a movie that had good actors and a good script. one of the best zombie/mutant/vampire movies i seen. it might have had a good opening in theaters if it had been promoted. I would compare it to the land of the dead. this might not be the best zombie movie ever made but its pretty good for some thing with this wacky title. one thing it did miss was hot nudity sure there was some from a woman with one arm but that doesn't do it much for me. over all i had a good time from start to finish and was left wanting to see more. if they ever make a squeal ill be sure to check it out.

I was one of the fortunate few who got an invitation to an advance screening of "Mutant Vampire Zombies from the 'Hood." Like so many of you out there I have been waiting for this one for about a year, and with much trepidation. I think we were all hoping for the best, but fearing the worst. Well, I'm happy to report that these Mutant Vampire Zombies deliver. KeiKabou Holland and Maxie J. Santillan Jr. practically steal the movie, while Johanna Watts and Tyshawn Bryant ground the film with strong, believable performances. In fact, all the gang members are terrific--my only caveat is that their screen time is too brief. The script by Thunder Levin and George Saunders is fun--think more along the lines of an R-rated "The Mummy" than "Shaun of the Dead"--and Thunder's direction keeps the story going at a hurried pace. There's never a dull moment. The zombies look great, the action is crisp and the laughs work in all the right places. After all the waiting, I was happy to see that "Mutant Vampire Zombies from the 'Hood" lives up to the pure hokum fun its name implies.
