WILD ZERO
Bitchin’
PLOT
Ace is heading off to see his favorite band Guitar Wolf play at a concert. Unfortunately aliens land and bring the dead back to life as zombies. He seeks out Guitar Wolf and they go on a journey to kill the zombies, or at least in theory. The movie’s really about a bunch of random scenes thrown together of completely random events like motorcycles racing down the street, naked women, transsexuals and just about anything else you can think of.
TRIVIA
Guitar Wolf is actually a real band that starred in another low budget horror movie from Japan.
THOUGHTS
I only added this movie to my Netflix queue because a guy I was interested in liked it. He’s now gone from the picture so by the time it came in the mail, I didn’t know if I’d even sit down and watch it. I did and it actually wasn’t that bad. Wild Zero is fairly zany (I think that’s an appropriate word for a movie that has a subplot about a love affair between a dorky guy and a transsexual). However it has some off the wall moments that I really liked. I’m surprised this isn’t better known.
