Electric Zombies

Written by Richard Novosak and John Specht
Directed by John Specht

Starring: Trust me, who gives a crap?


I assume the team had to use electricity to tape this film, so at least half of the title holds water. But they didn’t see the need to use real microphones, or decent music, or convincing actors, or (apparently) a script. There was a lot of fading to black (probably using the Sony HandiCam built-in Fade To Black tool), and a lot of talking cell phones, which apparently had something to do with the strange behavior of the characters. If I could have picked out the dialogue from the background noise, I might have been able to tell for sure.

Perhaps the “Zombie” half of the title refers to any poor soul who sat attentively through the entire film. “Patient In A Coma” might also suffice.

Coolness: Because I have NetFlix, the coolest part of this film was RETURNING it. Oy!
Dorkness: So far off the scale, it hurts my liver.
Bottom line: Break out your own Sony Camcorder and an hour and a half worth of tape, and you too can be in the industry…of CRAP.

Thanks so much for reviewing "Gamers". I have been on a one woman power trip since seeing it at GenCon in Indiana. I am not a gamer girl, attached to a gamer though. This movie had me rollin'. The main reason I had been out there trying to promote(got a local store to carry it, yay) is because I met these guys in person and they are just the best guys you would ever want to meet. Also, I love all movies and indie films don't always get a fair shake. Thanks a million times over.

I love games! I think this movie will support the game obsessed! Therapy will ensue and a lot of laughs! I will have to list them in my huge video site collections at the Matrix.
