ZOMBIE SELF-DEFENSE FORCE (2006)
Super silly Japanese zombie/comedy flick loaded with lots of ridiculous gore and blood. The movie strangely starts off with an anti-American political diatribe that at the same time praises George Romero as a genius. It then quickly turns into a more goofy thing that's hard to take seriously at all. It seems that a UFO has crashed causing a nasty zombie outbreak. There's a cast of assorted Japanese stereotypical characters including an annoying J-Pop star, a cheating businessman, Yakuza members and whole group of soldiers. For some reason I find stupid Asian shot-on-video zombie movies way less annoying than their American counterparts. That's probably due to the attractive Asian ladies on display. You get a flying zombie fetus that chokes people with its umbilical-cord, a little green alien octopus, a female cyborg soldier built so Japan can get revenge for World War II and a bunch of crappy CGI. This is part of a series that includes ATTACK GIRLS SWIM TEAM VS. THE UNDEAD and ZOMBIE HUNTER RIKA which are both probably skip-able, though I might watch them just to see more Japanese schoolgirls fighting zombies. Check this out only if you want something exceptionally stupid.
