Teeeelicious Even though the whole film was in German without English subtitles, that still didn't stop me from enjoying this gorefest. I personally think Olaf Ittenbach made this movie with the intentions of trying to top Peter Jackson's 'Braindead' in the gore category, but unfortunately, I still feel 'Braindead' is the King Of Gore Films. Nevertheless, 'Premutos' never fails to shock and awe with the gallons and gallons of gore, blood and guts that the zombies so desperately crave. Even though this film is very over-the-top at certain points; there's a scene where the main character is picking his nose at the dinner table and flicks his booger off of his finger and it accidentally shoots down some dinner guest's throat - very reminiscent of the dinner scene during 'Braindead' where mum squeezes the pus and blood from her bite into the dinner guest's creamy custard. Whatever the case, 'Premutos' is definitely a movie of its time and could quite possibly be the 2nd goriest film of all time. Don't worry Peter Jackson, 'Braindead' is still undefeated when it comes to gore.

dreg i had been told that premutos was goreier than peter jackson's braindead but i dont think it is. the effects are not quite as profound as in Braindead and the shi**y quality of the equipment theyve used makess the film a lot less powerful, that is not to say that premutos is bad...BRAINDEAD is just a masterpiece and should not be compared to anything. the dubbed english dialogue in premutos is utterly atrocious but since there is no subtitles on the german tracks its the only way youll know whats going onmy advice is to watch it in german and swap back to the english audio only when you have to. the movie is pretty good as far as the independent scene is concerned but those who love the mainstream hollywood bogroll will hate itthis film is very similar to THE DEAD NEXT DOOR and Leif Jonker's DARKNESS. If you liked them youll like this.

cha21269 I enjoyed the previous Ittenbach movie that I'd seen, "Burning Moon". But while that movie was rather grim and nasty, "Premutos" seems to mostly play it for laughs. While its admirable how Ittenbach made this movie with no money in his spare time (and the DVD documentary is worthwhile to see this), I found myself constantly battling not to fast-forward to the next gore scene. Sure, there's gore, and if that's all you want then go ahead and enjoy. But be warned: there's an inordinate amount of lame comedy and tedious story exposition. Many are comparing this to Peter Jackson's movies, especially "Braindead". But looking at what Jackson did on a similar budget in "Bad Taste", it's clear Ittenbach is lacking one thing that Jackson has - talent. 3/10 (for pretty good and plentiful gore effects, and for getting the most out of limited resources - but not worth the money I paid for it)

Suicyco Watching this film you'll probably feel the urge to skip the "story" parts by using your fast forward button. Very similar to pr0n movies, the story between the "real" scenes is more than boring and with actors even worse than in pr0n (which has its own unintentional humor sometimes). Some actors don't fit their role because of their age - but with so many flaws in the movie this is one of the minor problems. What you can imagine is that Olaf Ittenbach is really ambitious and gave his "Herzblut" for this production. That's something that should be supported, because with a real budget I think he would make incredible movies. Nevertheless, some gore scenes in the movie are quite good and what the film doesn't lack of is blood, blood and then: more blood...
