Claudio Carvalho The comrades Craig Thompson (Matthew Albrecht), Jerry (Jarrod Pistilli), Lance (Isaac Harrison) and Tom Alexander (Dru Lockwood) travel to the Buck Wild Farm in Texas to spend vacation hunting deer. Soon they discover that the owner Clyde (Joe Stevens) was bitten by a Chupacabra and has infected his slut daughter Candy (Meg Cionni) and neighbors that now are zombies. Will they survive?"Buck Wild" is a lame and unfunny comedy of horror. The screenplay (or the edition) is disconnected and senseless, and in the beginning, Clyde sees his daughter shagging with her boyfriend on the garden and he throws his pipe wrench on the head of the man. Then he is bitten by the Chupacabra and the scene is entirely forgotten. The film is so bad that after 96 minutes running time, there is no scene that makes laugh. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): Not Available
arfdawg-1 The "plot"A hunting vacation goes horribly awry for 4 friends after they accidentally shoot the lease's land owner.I know this was supposed to be a comedy spoofy movie but there really isn't much humor. Just bits and pieces that make no sense.For example the movie starts with the tart daughter having sex in the tulips. Daddy seems to kill the BF (never quite sure about that) and then he goes in the shed and is attacked by what looks like a zombie chubracabra.Cut to next scene and the dad is fine and the movie starts.Nothing makes sense, which might be OK if there was actually some funny moments or if the direction was tight.It's not. It's a meandering movie that is confusing and horrible.The acting is passable. The story is not.
Matt Kracht The plot: Four friends go on a hunting trip in Texas, only to run up against Chupacabra zombies.Well, there isn't a lot to say about this film. It's pretty stupid, but I was still amused by some of the scenes. Much of the humor depends on your being an immature, easily amused film nerd. If that's you, then you might like it, too. Just be aware that it's not really action-packed or fast-moving. Despite the bizarre premise, it's not really the most original horror-comedy ever made. It clumsily adopts and mocks every cliché the writers could think of, though not on a terribly intellectual level. It's quite inhibited compared to Troma's sheer insanity and gleeful offensiveness, but there's definitely a bit of inspiration from that infamous studio.Normally, my tolerance level for these films is quite low, but this one had just enough stupidly amusing scenes that I stuck it out. Also, I liked the end credits song. If you like this sort of nonsense, then I suggest you check out DeadHeads, another recent zombie comedy that was similar in some ways.
Paul Magne Haakonsen "Buck Wild" is not really amongst the better of zombie movies that I have seen. With that said, then it should also be said that there are far worse zombie movies out there on the market. And for a production of this caliber, then "Buck Wild" actually fared adequately, however, the movie just failed to be outstanding.Storywise, then "Buck Wild" doesn't really offer anything overly new to the zombie genre, nor does it really deliver fully on the various aspects that director Tyler Glodt were attempting to accomplish with this movie.The zombies were adequate, although don't expect shambling decaying corpses here, as it is a batch of freshly reanimated corpses that are found here throughout the movie. Whatever meager effects that were used in the movie were adequate as well, though the movie really didn't have that much blood and gore.There are some attempts at comedy throughout the movie, but none that really managed to punch through as the ones in "Shaun of the Dead".Being a zombie aficionado, of course I have to give just about anything even remotely zombiesque a chance; and of course not everything is going to be a masterpiece."Buck Wild" is enjoyable in itself for what it is, just don't set yourself up for something grand.
