Favorite Movie This Week: Wild Zero
9/11/2007
"Rock & roll has no boundaries, race or gender!"
I just watched the craziest, awesomest and most fun Japanese UFO/Zombie/Rock And Roll movie in history. Wild Zero is a tastful marriage of Ed Wood, George Romero zombies, and Rock and Roll attitude... complete with exploding heads, old-school UFOs, cool japanese punk musicians (a Japanese 'Ramones' esque trio with a guitar that turns into a sword and super cool exploding guitar pick weaponry), blue-skinned zombies, a hot-pants-pill-popping baddie, and transvestite love that will make you smile. I haven't been this excited about a B-Movie since I discovered MST3K in 1993.
If you just can't appreciate a movie unless it stars Gwyneth Paltrow or Orlando Bloom, or if you went to see Titanic more than once at the theater, then this probably isn't the movie for you. Still, I guarantee that if you watch it, especially if you play the drinking game that is included with the DVD, you will have a great fucking time. I am so going to own this one.
