ellenirishellen-62962 I hate zombie movies,but I liked this one.Am a huge fan of Shaun Of The Dead,so that'll explain why I stuck this one out.The leads did well in my opinion,and loved the scene of the sharing of schnapps with the guy who gets the ski poles and the aftermath.Will watch again and again because it was a pleasant surprise.There were some ridiculous scenes,but also some very touching ones,like in the loft and on the ski lift.Original title Alpine Zombies?Probably wouldn't have given that title a thought,but Lederhosen Zombies got me interested.A little much with the local livestock,but a zombie gets hungry while hunting its own kind!

L P One of the other reviews here mentions being able to enjoy 'Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies' ('AotLZ') if you don't take it too seriously, and that's a good rule here; unfortunately, I may have taken my viewing pleasure of this horror/zombie comedy, a little seriously. I likely should not have held high expectations and anticipation for this, because mostly I was left wanting, though it had some decidedly fine and clever elements...I can't trash it, because it's good, you can tell it was crafted as a labor of love, and it definitely had it's moments while being mostly fun. The production team here get high marks, as it had first rate production values all around, looking and sounding great! Kudos to casting as well...but ultimately, I'm left with the sentiment of a wasted opportunity, as parts of the script, pacing, and direction didn't step up to the rest of the production's level and help this film live up to it's brilliant potential...If you're a glutton for the punishment that comes with being a fan of Horror/Zombie comedies, then give this a shot, and you may be pleasantly rewarded. Hopefully, 'Team Hartl' get another crack at a Zombie feature, because the potential is there. I'll also give 'AotLZ' a few more viewings, and hope it gets better with age...In the meantime, if you liked 'AotLZ', and Horror/Zombie humour (e.g., 'Shaun of the Dead') is what you crave, consider these: 'Train to Busan/Busanhaeng' (2016), 'Evil Dead' (1981), 'Zombieland' (2009), 'Dead Snow/Død snø' (2009), 'Juan of the Dead/Juan de los metros' (2011), 'Slither' (2006), 'Undead or Alive: a Zombedy' (2007), 'Bio-Zombie/Sun faa sau si' (1998), 'Shanks' (1974), 'Chrome Hearts/Chopper Chicks in Zombietown' (1989), 'Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse' (2015), 'King of the Zombies' (1941), 'Cockneys vs Zombies' (2012), 'Zombeavers' (2014), 'Night of the Living Deb' (2015), 'Kill Zombie/Zombibi' (2012), 'Cabin in the Woods' (2012) & 'Black Sheep' (2006)… For Horror fun/humor, also consider: 'Tucker and Dale vs Evil' (2010), 'Eight Legged Freaks' (2002), 'Host/Gwoemul' (2006), 'Cold Prey/Fritt Vilt' (2006), 'Housebound' (2014), 'Piranha' (2010), 'Tremors' (1990), 'Snakes on a Plane' (2006), 'Ghost Team' (2016), 'Las brujas de Zugarramurdi' (2013), 'Grabbers' (2012), 'Black Christmas' (2006), 'Rare Exports' (2010), 'Trolljegeren' (2010), 'Gremlins' (1984), 'Fright Night' (1985), ' Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!' (1978) & 'Big Ass Spider' (2013), among others

faithbloom How often have you really seen comedy and horror work well together? Probably not too often but "Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies" does a great job at fusing these two categories. This lighthearted, zombie filled film brings together every aspect of horror films and comedies to make it enjoyable for everyone to watch. When three teens are stranded on the Austrian Alps during a snowboarding trip, you don't think many bad things could happen. But add a science experiment gone wrong, and a mountain full of zombies to the equation and then you have real mayhem. Luckily, the humor throughout keeps the spirits high and hopeful for an escape from this hellish location. The script has cleverly written jokes that kept me laughing and a self-aware cast that notably mentions they are in some type of "zombie movie" to the audience. I noticed an 80's vibe present that also helps to give off a quirky feel.But not to worry for all the horror lovers. There is an intense fight scene between the zombies and snowboarders that still had me hiding my eyes (mostly because I'm squeamish). If you can think of any way to kill a zombie with a snowboard, it is done in this movie and probably more. Whether there is a head being cut off or in half, a body severed, or a zombie being shot to death you will have enough gore to last you a lifetime. Basically, the special effects did not disappoint and the makeup helps make some of the most realistic looking zombies.This ZomCom is a great flick that I really enjoyed. It is perfect for a movie night and deserving of any comedy or zombie lovers time. This spoofy film does not disappoint and should be added to everyone's movie watch list.

Olivia Pope A worth addition to the zombie spoof genre, Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies does a fantastic job of retaining the theatricality of slasher films and blending it with colorful twists that I thought were both unique and fun. The heroes are a ragtag trio of snowboarders whose chemistry is something I haven't seen in many movies before. The plot takes a thrilling turn as the gang finds themselves trapped on the Alps in a log cabin bar surrounded by zombies poisoned by a rogue science experiment. They then must devise imaginative ways of battling the undead as they try to make it to safety. The movie does not fall short on its graphic scenes of decapitation and laceration. Though I am not usually a big fan of slasher films, the violent scenes were done in an entertaining and classic horror way. And I loved how all of it was paired with catchphrase dialogue, slapstick fun and solid character development. A surprisingly lighthearted comedy punctuated by timeless zombie graphics, Attack of the Lederhosen Zombies was a good choice when I was looking for an easy and entertaining watch.
