Zombie Hunter

Plot synopsis:
The film opens with a news report on "Natas", a strange drug which has been reported to induce zombie-like effects in those who consume it. The film then fast forwards in time, to an Earth mostly inhabited by zombies. The Hunter (Martin Copping) drives along a post-apocalyptic wasteland and meets a hostile "Death Angel". The zombie is reduced to purplish goo after Hunter rams his car at it. He proceeds to stop at a deserted filling station to fill his car's empty gas tank. Hunter enters the station's convenience store to check out any available supplies, but is ambushed by invading zombies. He eliminates them all after a gory battle and downs his sorrows by gulping a bottle of tequila. It is revealed that Hunter's daughter and wife have both died. Resuming his journey, Hunter unknowingly ventures into the turf of the survivors, who have not been infected by Natas. Thinking Hunter is a zombie, an unknown assailant takes a shot at him. Hunter survives nevertheless and is greeted by survivor Fast Lane Debbie (Jade Regier) upon regaining consciousness.
A flirty Debbie attempts to make out with Hunter but fellow survivor Alison (Clare Niederpruem) awkwardly walks into the room to hand him a can of cola, before coercing an annoyed Debbie to leave Hunter alone. Outside, Debbie accuses Alison of being a slut. The latter woman throws back the same insult and they start to quarrel. The audience is then introduced to Father Jesús (Danny Trejo), a pastor-like zombie slayer and leader of the survivor's colony. As the survivors assemble in a small room to have a meal together, a groggy Hunter joins the crowd and gets to formally know the other survivors. Alison and Hunter start to get romantically passionate with each other.
All is well until a wave of normal zombies and a monstrously large zombie somehow make their way into the survivor's camp. The survivors are able to fend off the normal zombies but the gigantic zombie is seemingly unstoppable to the point that even bullets do not faze it. Jesús rushes in to save them and is able to mutilate the hulking zombie with his axe by slicing off its arm. However, Jesús is unable to defeat him wholly and as a result, the zombie slices off his head. The remaining survivors scramble into a car and drive off to an airport in hopes of being able to find a working aeroplane to fly off with.
The zombies, unshakable, still manage to track them down. Consequently, all of the survivors, except for Alison, Hunter, and Alison's brother Ricky (Jason K. Wixom), are killed. Mustering their courage, they confront the zombies and begin shooting them. At last, only the giant zombie is left. Having run out of bullets, Hunter is impaled by the sharp-clawed zombie. Nonetheless, he miraculously finds the energy to detonate a grenade, wiping out the creature and destroying the rundown airport. Just as the bomb explodes, Alison and Ricky climb into a truck and drive off to safety.
Alison vows to always remember Hunter and his courageous deed, echoing that he had finally found what he yearned for — peace. In the aftermath of the explosion, Hunter is shown to be still alive. He explains that he feels cursed as the zombies never seem to be able to kill him and decides to take his own life before the credits roll.

Review:
This movie was like watching a bad movie spawned from the "Borderlands" games mixed with elements blatantly stolen from the "Resident Evil" universe.The storyline was fairly straight forward, and anyone who have seen just a single zombie movie should be familiar with the essentials of the storyline here as well.
A lone stranger ends up with a small group of survivors in the midst of a zombie apocalypse.The dialog in the movie was just horrible.
Now, I am not saying that the people acting and portraying the characters were doing bad jobs, but the characters themselves were parodies on themselves and everything in the zombie genre.
Way to go Arrowstorm Entertainment...If you are credited as 'Sexy Zombie' in a movie, then you know everything is not right here.Yet, there is something to this movie that makes you stick around to the end, even though it is campy, cheesy and have low budget written all over it.
Worst Zombie movie I have ever seen..
Danny Trejo - which is probably the  reason for most people to watch this flick - is only seen in three  scenes and is just doing his usual job.
Their roles are clichés as you  would expect from a movie like this, but their acting is so bad, that  you cannot even take those clichés seriously.
Then there is the very bad CGI of those special monsters, which just  look like they had been animated in the 1990s.
A movie that isn't good at all but since Danny Trejo is in it people will watch.
The way I think the movie got made is this; Hey everyone likes zombies, should we make a movie about them.
To prove my point...there is a scene where the group talks about how many zombies the hunter has killed that is interrupted by a woman stripping...using a pole that is conveniently located in the warehouse they are in, but since Danny Trejo is on the box people will watch.
The main character is not played by Danny Trejo who is only in it in order to get people to watch it.
There are two kinds of really, really bad zombie movies:Those with NO Danny Trejo...
Danny Trejo.Or as much Danny Trejo as the "producer/writer/director" could afford to hire, which seems to be roughly a half-day's worth in this case.Too inadvertently cheesy to qualify as the worst ever in its sub-genre, this grind house wannabe also boasts: absolutely no acting or directorial values; an unedited, witlessly amateurish imitation Frank Miller tough guy script; lots of gore, black gore, maroon gore, fuchsia gore, lavender gore, green gore, ecru gore; a gratuitous chain-sawing wielding maniac clown; never-explained CGI mutant space monsters; a single set of all-purpose fake intestines which are repeatedly pulled from various dead extras; characters who keep forgetting they're in the zombie apocalypse; a running visual gag involving masturbation; a geezer who repeatedly declares "I'm getting too old for this sh*t"; and a second-lead actress whose IMDb biog notes that she used to model for Japanese girlie mags and now sells lingerie at strip clubs in Utah.In sum: grade Z camp fare; awful, but minimally fun.
Eh...sometimes you're in the mood for a really bad zombie movie.
And for Danny, hey man, you're going for the money or what, Rise Of The Zombies (2012) was another disaster.
And if you have a close look here at Zombie Hunter you can see posters for Ozombie and Orcs, do I need to say more.
Just as you need an understanding of basic carpentry and the comprehension of executing a well designed plan, you need to DO THE SAME THING WHEN MAKING A MOVIE!I didn't care about any of these characters.
You just can't take Mad Max, Terminator, Snatch, Star Wars, (Danny Trajo's lines are written as if he were some kind of Ninja Yoda) and Dawn of the Dead, jumble it all up and think you've got something remotely entertaining.
Fairly decent and very cheesy direct to video zombie movie.
Zombie Hunter fullfills its obligations of a campy, low budget horror movie.
There is a lot of gore,blood,a cheesy storyline where drugs turn people into zombies ( sometimes giant zombies),hot chicks,a musclecar and Danny Trejo.
Danny Trejo unfortunately is not the lead,instead they got a guy who looks like Ripper Owens from Judas Priest to play a zombie hunting bad ass.
The film delivers a lot on zombies and gore.
Zombie Hunter is no classic,but should please most fans of the genre as passable entertainment..
Loved it..good campy zombie fun!.
Based on the other reviews one would think this is the worst zombie movie ever...it's not and I loved it!
I won't go into the plot, but people that love this genre realize this is not a serious movie, it is meant to be laughed at....Yes, there is bad CGI, bad effects and it is low budget.
The whole point of a zombie movie is either to be scared to death or spoof it and I could not stop watching.
If you are going in with the idea of watching a 'good' movie you're wrong.
The first scene already tells you what kind of film you're watching and when you are spoiled with Hollywood blockbusters and aren't familiar with this style of movie i agree you wouldn't like it.
If you enjoy the classic "B" Horror Flicks and the cheesy actors and lines then this movie is a Hoot.
Danny Trejo did a great job at being (The Badass Priest Character) If you are a serious type person..
The special effects was just classic "B" horror flick like the original Evil Dead Movies.
Great Stuff :) I personally look forward to seeing more of this kind of film in the future.
It has been a long time since I really enjoyed a great "B" horror movie.
I also loved the main actor Martin Copping He did a great job at portraying the hunter..
It's a small budget film but it does well with what it has to work with.The gist of the story is this: there is a street drug called Natas (Satan spelled backwards?) that is turning its users into Flesh Eaters.
Danny Trejo makes an appearance as a priest (a bad ass priest, of course) who has a group of followers who are looking to escape the zombies and find the Promised Land.
Oh, did I mention there is a killer clown as well?Without giving too much away just know that this movie packs a lot of action into the story.
There are a couple of good laughs in the film but nothing gratuitous that takes away from the solid horror moments.This is a solid horror/zombie flick that is perfect for watching with some friends on a Friday night..
Don't rent this if you're expecting this to be a Danny Trejo (leading) movie.
It's a shame because with a better lead and some of the action set pieces this would have been a lot more fun to watch.As it is, it's a nice try, but has too many clichés ruining the story and the very limited character definitions we get.
The film hasn't been released yet but has been featured at the Fantasia Film Festival and Fantasy Film Fest.The storyline is as follows: a zombie outbreak has been caused by a street drug called "Natas" and we follow Hunter, played by Martin Copping, as he goes around wiping out the Flesh Eaters.
He drives around in a beat up Camaro and looks a lot like Mad Max.Danny Trejo does another stellar job playing Danny Trejo.
This time he is a priest with a group of followers who are trying to escape the zombies and the run into Hunter who decides to give them a hand.Zombie Hunter is a low budget film but it makes do with what they have.
It hearkens back to the horror movies of the 80's where there was lots of action, gore and sex.
Some of the CGI leaves a lot to be desired but overall it is a well-produced film.As a zombie movie fan, this one may have just become my new favorite..
Review: You know a movie must be bad if Danny Trejo is the best thing in it!
Anyway, this movie is awful, but in some ways I think that it was deliberately made be be so bad, that you actually find it amusing.
The Zombies looked like they were made of rubber and the splatters on the screen were dreadful.
In this film he really does put the other actors to shame, but I'm not surprised after he has starred in millions of movies.
As for the other actors, if you can call them that, they seem like they just wanted to say that they had starred in a movie because they really are bad.
In all, a total waste of time.I recommend this movie to people who are I to there trashy zombie movies without much storyline, but loads of blood.
I could totally forgive the awful juvenile writing, terrible acting, and vfx if this movie didn't try to seem serious.I really took note of the low end costume design, instead of zombies looking tattered, their clothing was riddled with very clear and precise scissor cuts, fail!
If you are looking for a plot or good acting and writing, keep walking.
Zombie Hunter is aware of it's own campiness which it tries to ride off of the entire movie but yet feels too lazy to commit.
The repeating jokes, glaring continuity errors, 2D characters you don't give two craps for and flat (and I mean flat as a board) acting, makes the movie rather difficult to watch.
Okay, so we have a film called 'Zombie Hunter' and it stars renown B-movie actor Danny Trejo.
Sadly, right from the start we're treated to possibly the most corny monologue from the film's leading man (who isn't Danny Trejo, incidentally).
Seriously, his monologues are so bad, you'd think they were funny - perhaps a way of making sure we didn't take this film seriously.
There is no humour in this film.If you have a B-movie with no stars and little budget, you don't expect it to try and compete with Hollywood's A-list efforts.
While there are some attempts to spoof the well worn tropes of this type of endeavour, too often does Zombie Hunter cheat the audience, revel in its laziness and fail even to live up to the gimmicky promises plastered on the DVD case.
The weird highlight for me was in lead Martin "Hunter" Copping who's growling, monotonous delivery seemed to craft a character that was just as nonchalant concerning the apocalypse then about the junk in which he was starring.
But as I iterated early on, there are clear – and surprisingly successful – attempts to spoof the style of film in which Zombie Hunter eventually revels.
The film stars Danny Trejo which should give the game away as to what grindhouse type flicks this capitalises on.
The main character of The Hunter is basically 'Max Rockatansky' with a classic Clint Eastwood 'man with no name' vibe just for good measure.
I might also mention the guy in the role (Martin Copping) is Australian too haha what are the odds?!.So yes the main heroes look is a bit of a rip off but it works, he's cool, grizzled and dispatches zombies with aplomb.
You have the main theme of a 70's/80's Mexican grindhouse approach with a Mad Max main lead fighting zombies in a Resident Evil setting with an actual Resident Evil monster too (not sure where they came from though).
Trejo is playing 'Machete' again but with an axe, oh and there's a clear cut 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' homage/rip off too...got all that?.Being a low budget affair the effects are average, the blood n guts look fine but the CGI monster things aren't.
Of course there are a couple hot chicks in the survivor band too, one clearly being some ex-stripper/model/porn star type who is bad at acting but good at being slutty (I liked that).
zombies aren't bullet proof.I actually found myself liking this film mainly because of Copping's hero character, I'm not really a fan of the grindhouse genre/approach but the use of other styles and ideas worked well.
Its not fresh and new, we've seen this type of thing a billion times before but I personally liked this films style, the cut of its jib.
"Zombie Hunter" is an absolutely ridiculous film.
It's what makes the movie watchable and gives it such an entertaining air.After a zombie apocalypse, a loner (Martin Copping) with nothing left to lose drives cross-country taking out the walking dead whenever he crosses paths with them.
He soon finds himself leading the misfits as they flee for their lives when the flesh-eaters discover their hideaway.What could have easily been lost in a never-ending sea of movies centered on the walking dead rises above thanks to an obvious influence taken from Japanese films like "Mutant Girl Squad," "Helldriver," and "Vampire Girl vs.
Frankenstein Girl." All the hyper-tense action sequences, vivid colors, and ultra-violence found in those are mimicked here to mostly successful results.If what you're looking for is the realism of "Night of the Living Dead" or "The Walking Dead," don't gaze in the direction of "Zombie Hunters." There's tons of gore and beheadings, but everything's done in an extremely animated and tongue-in-cheek manner.
Just like the Japanese films this movie is influenced by, the brightly colored blood splatters across the screen as the zombies are sliced and diced.The special effects for "Zombie Hunters" are also intentionally cartoon- like.
It's evident because the quality shifts from scene to scene.For instance, the film will go from a scene of zombie monsters which look like Ray Harryhausen models to a sequence of a person getting a chainsaw drilled through their stomach with lifelike blood pouring forth.
The next scene features a zombie getting his head cut off as purple day-glo gore sprays out of it all over the camera lens.Although "Zombie Hunter" is not yet rated by the MPAA, I would consider it to be an "R." There's no nudity, but plenty of sensuality.
If you're a fan of the excessively gory and irreverently silly films of Yoshihiro Nishimura, then you'll no doubt enjoy "Zombie Hunter." Just don't watch the movie expecting Academy Award-winning performances or the serious atmosphere of George A.
This movie is a very failed attempt of some sort of Resident Evil kind of genre.
Every day a "wanna be" movie director comes out and puts a monkey in a wheelchair to write a failed script with zombies just because they can make a fast buck and that is a crime to the art of action horrors that keep zombies "alive" in our "brainz"!
Good Zombie Flick.
I went into seeing this with an open mind since now-a-days, with all the advances in makeup and CGI, doing a zombie movie to compete with the others is somewhat of a challenge for any filmmaker.
This is just a fun movie to watch.
If you are just in the mood for a good zombie/action/horror movie, give this one a watch.
Man, this movie was a wild-rid of a film!
I love me a good zombie movie and this was a good one all-right.
The story centers around "The Hunter" (Martin Copping) a man who has survived the zombie outbreak.
The Hunter eventually ends up with a small group of survivors which include Father Jesus (Danny Trejo) and two women who vie for the attention of the new guy.
A Good-Ol' Zombie Film.
I love action movies and this one is a good one.
A lot of people call it a horror movie, since it involves zombies, but it is definitely an action film.
But, keep in mind, Zombie Hunter is not for the faint of heart or anyone with a bad stomach for gore.
There are some parts that show it is not the biggest budget film, but the movie, as a whole, is good enough that is can easily stand up to some of the huge- budget zombie/action movies..
The viewer watches the newscast being looked at by Natas users.A year later, Hunter is out in the desert, killing the occasional zombie.
He and the car look pretty bad, but the drag him back to camp.The small group gets to know one another.
Soon the compound is attacked by zombies, including some sort of full-on mutant that looks like it was never a human.
Otherwise, the picture was rather low in quality, say mid-range VHS.Sound: 6/10 Not too bad, but with wretched incidental music.Acting: 2/10 Much to my disappointment, Danny Trejo's role was rather small, but that's where the +2 comes from.
When I was looking through Netflix trying to find a good zombie movie to watch, I came across this one and saw the story for it and the picture so I clicked on it and watched it.
It was terrible and it looked like someone went on Windows Movie Maker and pressed some buttons for 5 minutes and called it editing.
I understand that a zombie movie wouldn't be too realistic because "zombies" but with the huge monster who looked like Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy and a clown zombie with a chainsaw.
OK I hardly ever write reviews but for this I have to, This has to be the WORST film i have ever seen for so many reasons Zombie film usually rock but this was just rotten so so so bad i feel ripped off because it actually has the ingredients to be a great film its like they wanted to make it bad.
First it has 1 half big name in it Danny Trejo so you think it might be good, WRONG IT SUCKS, he gets wasted after a C%$p small part by a very very fake CGI monster.
