Zombie horror is always dark, of course, but not always for the same reasons. Here the darkness comes from a sense of humour that adds layers to the standard zombie pre-sets

When a secret government agency lets out a deadly chemo virus causing the reanimation of the dead, the first place to get hit is Rhino’s, a hot underground strip club. As one of the strippers gets the virus, she turns into a supernatural, flesh-eating zombie stripper, making her the hit of the club. Do the rest of the girls fight the temptation to be like the star stripper, even if there is no turning back? Also featuring ROXY SAINT (of the Goth band Roxy Saint and the Blackouts) and Ultimate Fighting Champion TITO ORTIZ, ZOMBIE STRIPPERS is a sexy, bloody, hilarious good time! --© Sony Pictures [More]

Reviews for Zombie Strippers
Here's a title that lives up to its expectations; Jay Lee's schlockingly funny horror flick is filled with inventive ideas and delivers in spades for fans of the genre
Unfortunately for fans of the burgeoning "walking dead eat the patrons of the champagne room" subgenre, Zombie Strippers never manages to become the classic of this particular cinematic movement.
With a hilariously over-the-top B-movie vibe, this nutty gorefest keeps us chuckling all the way through. And underneath the outrageous wackiness, there's some playful thematic wit at work as well.
Enjoyable horror comedy that delivers on the promise of the title, aided by some decent effects and a witty script.
With a budget of perhaps £100, half the movie involves people having their heads ripped off with the rest devoted to porn stars jiggling their plastic boobs before being shot in the head. Someone please shoot me, too.
Jay Lee’s wannabe cult flick will draw cackles from forgiving fans of cheap’n’cheesy sexploitation.
Undemanding fans of softcore nudity and hardcore gore will chew it down, but real horror afficionados will crave more meat on the bone.
Proceed directly to the 'S' section of your local video shop and rent Shaun Of The Dead again instead.
A brilliantly high-concept title and some decent gore aside, you’re better off watching the version in your head. It will be infinitely more fun and have markedly improved production values.
It's cleverly done with lots of nods to other zombie films. You'll probably catch it on DVD
Acting is hardly of great consequence in a movie where everyone involved seems a little too in on the joke, as if distancing themselves from material that would simply be vile if it weren't so outrageously over the top.
Over the years I've seen Jenna Jameson do lot of things in a lot of movies, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've ever seen her reading Nietzsche.
It is a serviceable horror comedy that will ride well on [Jenna] Jameson's name recognition until the gag wears thin...
It looks terrible. It doesn’t work as camp. It doesn’t work as low budget crap.
That faint thumping noise you hear is Russ Meyer doing donuts in his grave.
