bowmanblue Like zombies? Tired of watching Mila what's-her-name kicking hordes of them out of her way in heels? Bored of George Romero pretending that he's still relevant? If the answer to any of these questions is 'yes' then this could be the film for you.Deadheads is about a zombie uprising, only two of those groaning shufflers just so happens to be intelligent. Yes, they're dead. Yes, they're decomposing and yes, bits of them are falling off (I'll leave it to your imagination to guess which bits). In fact, they're basically alive, apart from the fact that their fellow walkers don't want to eat them and the remaining humans all want to shoot them in the head. Add to this that one of the two unfortunate living zombies is still pining for his ex girlfriend and you have a road trip across America with two wisecracking zombies.The two IQ-upped undead also take along a 'conventional' zombie (who they call 'Cheese' for some reason - I might have missed why) and treat him like a pet. Cheese, in turn repays them by stealing every scene even though he does little else but groan and look slightly confused.There are plenty of pop culture references added into the mix and, before long, you may even forget you're watching what is, in effect, quite a low budget 'student-like' film.Ultimately, Deadheads is a fun film for all the family (assuming your family is 'The Adams Family'). It has great characters with even greater facial hair and may even take the place of the hallowed Shaun of the Dead in the Zomromcom department.Now, just remember never to ask a zombie what he keeps in his pocket.

McQualude A random recommendation on Netflix that turned out to be among the better zombie movies I've seen in a long while. Mike wakes up one evening and learns he died and has become a zombie but Mike's brain is fully functioning, he can talk and is not craving human flesh. Frightened he seeks help at a nearby cabin but they don't take kindly to dead folk. Soon after Mike stumbles into Brent, another high functioning zombie that died of auto-erotic asphyxiation and the duo set off to find Mike's ex- girlfriend, Ellie. Deadheads is an 90's style road trip/romantic comedy that manages to be fun, touching, quirky and sincere. There is a fun scene in the beginning that can best be described as Night of the Living Dead meets Feast but thankfully Deadheads doesn't devolve into a montage of mash-ups. On the way to Michigan they meet an odd assortment of characters, some living, some become friends, some want to kill them, and Mike learns the shocking truth of how he became a zombie.

kosmasp Humor is in the eye of the beholder. So while the quirky way this movie decides to take, is not everyones taste, even those who don't like it that much, have to admit, that it sticks to its plan. Of course that doesn't help with those who won't like it from the get go. But at least you know, this isn't for you then.There's other movies that try a similar formula (one's hidden in my summary line, the other being Revenant ... though I can only recommend the latter as an alternative, even if not as good as this one), but none have a thorough story or the actors to back it up, as does this movie. Not without flaws, but as good as it gets in that genre and not just trying to be cool, but actually achieving it. I can only hope that you can enjoy it as much as I did ...

BitterJim Outside of the fact this film borrows from every unoriginal overused cliché joke and situation, it is almost insulting at how unfunny it is, while it clumsily tries to be funny. You know these people are beginners when its a zombie film. Simon Pegg wring a bell? And thats about all this film has in common with Pegg.The acting was very mediocre and boring. The sidekick was a typical, cliché, annoying and idiotic side kick, playing off of his "straightman" buddy, who possesses about as much charisma as a pear.What I actually find most insulting, though, is the pathetic attempts to beef this movie up, by the makers of the movie, who dishonestly compared it to Shaun of the Dead, and wrote fake reviews here on IMDb and on Amazon as well.For instance..look at the reviews...if it isn't a 1 star review, its a 10 star review. And not just a 10 star review, but titles to those reviews all in capitol letters, accented with several exclamation points."GREATEST FILM EVER IN THE UNIVERSE OF TIME AND SPACE CONTINUUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" That is a trick to grab your attention, folks. And there are several of these made up reviews. Ask yourself...how excited could someone possibly get over a B movie no one has heard of? If such a film could generate this kind of hysteria and praise from a random public, we would have heard about it on television or some much larger media.These 10 star reviews were made by people within the film itself..the actors, to promote their careers, the producers, to promote their product, etc...This film is nothing like Feeding Frenzy, a phenomenon of itself, and as another reviewer brought up, the very funny and original Tucker and Dale vs. Evil.This film was yet another boring, unoriginal, tired and cliché movie that just Happens to sort of be about zombies. Sure, they thought making zombies the main characters would be sort of original...but its already been done, actually. And nothing is original about how the two zombies act. You've seen it before in several buddy movies...over...and over...and over...and over again.Please do not watch this thing. Do not support these actors or film makers. And please ignore the inflated, exaggerated claims and reviews by the film makers and cast themselves...it is just a desperate and pathetic attempt to inflate the last thing they should ever do in film.
