A few thoughts: Horror anthologies made by too many different directors are really hard to give one rating to, so I'm gonna switch things up and judge each segment accordingly. With the framework of a bunch of people going to a drive-in to watch short horror films, this movie sets up each segment and comes back around to concluding itself as a zombie movie. This portion is very uneven, but has some funny moments and a decent resolution (its over-reliance on movie quotes/references becomes funny in a dumb sort of way). The first film is about a giant killer sperm that terrorizes NYC. It's disgusting and hilariously inappropriate, with some pretty amazing and unique visual effects (props to the Chiodo brothers). Next up is the gay greaser musical about werebears. It had potential, but came up short due to some meh writing and little-to-no effort on the visual production. And the third is about Hitler trying to create a Frankenstein monster. I won't spoil it for you, but it's an absolute blast and stroke of brilliance. This movie is terribly uneven and totally devoid of good taste, but as a whole I enjoyed it quite a bit.
People who love gory, ridiculous, stupid, corny, and disgusting horror comedies. It's an anthology worth checking out, even if just for the first and third segments.
My grades:
