I enjoyed the second outing more than Casino Royale. Funny though, as I remember it being the other way around when I first saw them.
I didn't like the villain though.

Dead Alive, a review by RossRoy

What they say
Throw out all your preconceptions about the limits of horror! A new standard has been set with Dead Alive - The Mother of All Horror Films.

On a quiet street, in a small town, pure evil has come to stay. Lionel, an innocent young man, is forced to care for his domineering mother and finds the task a whole lot more demanding after she's bitten by the cursed Sumatran rat monkey. Passing the point of death, Lionel's mother sucks friends and family into her gruesome existence among the living dead and Lionel is sent spiraling into a goulish nightmare.

Now a crazed zombie, she soon infects enough people to make it difficult for Lionel, still the faithful son, to keep the neighbors from suspecting that something is terribly wrong.

Dead Alive is dripping with state-of-the-art special effects that feature mutilations, rock 'n roll dismemberments and household appliances, combining into the most bizarre ending ever filmed. 

My Thoughts
Hahaha! I love that film! What's not to like? It's sick, it's gory, it's all fun! So many memorable scenes: the park scene, the priest kick ass, both meal scenes, obviously the final zombie mow down, even the bizarre freudian ending!

There's even one liners: "Party's Over!", "I kick ass for the Lord!", etc.

And if all that is not enough to keep you coming back, there's also the always beautiful Paquita!



So, if you like your comedy horror gory, bloody and zombie filled, this is a must see!

A sketch comedy show with Dieter Hallervorden from the late 80s. I haven't seen this one since then. I was watching it, when it originally aired. This brought up some memories
I have bought this DVD set only a few months ago, so naturally it is still in my unwatched pile.
