I love this movie so much

Such a frustrating disappointment

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Blistering performances.

Two doctors must fend off a legion of the undead while trying to find a way to stop a zombie epidemic that threatens mankind.Boy, does this astonishingly atrocious clunker possess all the right wrong stuff to qualify as a real four-star stinkeroonie: We've got ham-fisted (mis)direction by Andreas Schnaas (who also wrote the flimsy script), a meandering story which unfolds at a plodding pace, annoying characters, cheesy excessive gore that isn't convincing for a minute, uproariously awful dubbing (one white doctor talks with a fake deep soul bro rumble while the other guy speaks in a highly irritating high-pitched whine), terrible acting from a lame no-name cast, shoddy zombie make-up, a ridiculously drawn-out nightmare sequence, rough shot on video cinematography, and a few inspired tasteless moments (both a crippled woman in a wheelchair and her baby get munched by the zombies!). A total crappy riot.

"Damn!" Let me start out by just saying that I believe this really and truly has the potential to be the greatest so-bad-it's-good horror movie ever made, and unlike many others from what I've read here and there, I don't just say that about any old lousy picture at the drop of a hat. It's certainly one of the best examples that I've ever come across. I first discovered it all thanks to the wonderfully droll Cinema Snob's review that he did on it and I'm very glad I did, for this beast *is* that fabled unbelievably awesome bad movie you've been looking for and much more besides, trust me! Most people seem to gripe on about this film like it's the worst thing to emerge from Germany since Hitler, but to me it was B-movie gold! Where most saw nothing but pure garbage, I was totally blown away and could tell that it was gonna be a real tour-de-force of zero-budget trashy goodness - and I mean that as a most enthusiastic and positive endorsement! And hell yeah the dialogue was beyond terrible, but it's supposed to be, that's where all the fun's coming from in this instance, it was certainly the only real thing that made this movie worthwhile for me. The fact that the 'actors' doing the dubbing where seemingly making up every sentence as they went along only added hugely to the comedic aspect. I'm not sure what it was these guys were smoking, but it must've been good because most of the time the motherf*****s weren't even making no sense! I don't think the s**t that was the real script was even being followed during the dubbing process, I think those guys must have got in there and just went crazy and thought screw it, let's watch this movie and make up our own damn voice-overs! It kept cracking me up every time the main doctor guy was on the screen because he may have looked like s**t, but he sounded like Shaft! It's hysterical if you're in the right mind for it - or of course a little out of your mind, whichever! The film frequently goes from bad to incoherent in a matter of micro seconds. There's no real proper story, it was all just one colossal excuse to make a poorly-grafted patchwork of badly corresponding zombie attack sequences with the fiends tearing victims limb-from-limb in increasingly strange situations. I thought all the zombie attacks had a decent amount of scare factor to them, and there was enough tension and visceral gore there that it occasionally got a creepy vibe going. I enjoyed some of the atmosphere, it reminded me of another(in that case) unfairly maligned zombie horror that I really love. "The Video Dead." It was all fair-game as far as kills went in this splatterfest, and some of the vile bodily mutilations that these malicious undead inflicted on the unfortunate victims were downright offensive! Like when the two woman are killed and the fat one got her boobs cut off and the other gets cut in half right through her um, nether regions~ And the baby slaughter was a little whoa, even if it was clearly a doll. The baby's name was "Leroy-Bob", which has got to be the straight-up funniest name I ever heard of. That's my favourite scene because of how the miserable woman in the wheelchair hilariously laments and shares her deep thoughts about the sorry state of mankind before she gets it! It has a few moments that sort of pay homage to classic horror movies, such as Zombie Flesh Eaters, Predator, The Evil Dead, a zombie is wearing a Ghostbusters T-shirt at one point, and even Alien when a little parasite thing leads out of a zombie's chest and into some jerk's eye! I like the dream sequence that leads up to the ending, although the surrealism was pretty redundant as things were already pretty much as far-out as they could possibly get without any dream elements thrown in.. My advice would be about this movie is that you really should just try and enjoy it for what it is, don't try thinking about it, don't think at all - just breathe it in! You guys want the 411 on utterly insane zombie movies you probably never even heard of? See Zombie 90 Extreme Pestilence, you'll either hate it or it'll make you die of laughter!! Beautifully bad.

German gore director Andreas Schnaas's second movie. Man, it stinks! A plane carrying lethal chemicals crashes someplace in Germany, and a zombie plague has begun. Two doctors battle against the flesh eating zombies, one is the butt kicker and the other is the loser. So two ladies are taking a sauna and complaining about their boyfriends, the fat one leaves, and gets mutilated. So the other one sees the fattie's mutilated body, and screams, then gets killed. Then some husband is pushing his wheelchaired wife, who is carrying a baby. The husband gets killed, then the woman has her head chopped off with a axe, and her plastic doll baby ripped up. The next scene takes place on a tour, zombies munch on everyone, and the loser doctor gets bitten and turned into a zombie, so the butt kicker cuts his hands and a chunk of his head off, and explodes another zombies head with a pistol. Then the butt kicker goes to a house infested by zombies and kicks butt, then has his intestines pulled out. THE END Crappy movie.

Zombie '90 Extreme Pestilence (1991) * 1/2 (out of 4) Ultra gory film from underground German director Andreas Schnaas has two scientists trying to kill a lot of zombies. Schnaas is known for his ultra gory films and this one here is no exception. The gore level is incredibly high and I'd go as far as to say this is one of the goriest films ever made. The ultra low budget doesn't really help matters but it really doesn't hurt things either since the acting, directing and story are all weak. There's a violent, bloody death every 30 seconds so gore hounds should be entertained.
