A humorous and enjoyable take on the post-apocalyptic and zombie genres.

lackluster zombie movie that simply fails to provide, there's simply not enough zombies in it, seriously you see less than ten. it has the means to be a good zombie movie, but simply fails on delivering. it's a worthy watch because of it's semi-cult status, but it's also evident why it doesn't make zombie top ten lists.

A comet obliterates the majority of the world's population at once and infects the few survivors with a spacebug that turns them into homicidal freaks. A couple of ditzy Valley girls have to survive in this brave new world. The story is kinda funny in places but there should've been more zombie things, and there's very little action or gore. This flick is so painfully 80's that it has a shopping spree montage scored with "Girls Just Want to Have Fun".

This is a great end of the world movie, but is too dated. They remake movies that shouldn't. Here's one that should.

Better than it looks. Yes, both the soundtrack, the dialogue and the cold war subtext scream mid-80s cheese, but it's actually a pretty decent lighthearted post-apocalyptic story with female protagonists who kick ass and lots of clever little twists. Not much in the way of zombies, unfortunately, but there's one or two decent scenes.

Good despite itself, really. It's very light on action, special effects or acting chops, and it almost completely fails to be the genre potluck it wants to be (it's a football team that runs back a kick return, then loses by thirty points), but there's still a sort of undeniably fun and 80s feel to everything. The plot is actually really interesting, and the fact that the female protagonists are depicted as people rather than mother/whore/bitch/bimbo archetypes is still refreshing.

By now, I've passed the point of "Why do I do this to myself?" and have set up residence in the town of "Why am I enjoying this?". Perhaps the most quintessentially 80ies horror movie ever, complete with vapid characters, awful music, predictable plot, almost no effects to speak of and just... neon... fucking... everywhere. Note to self: Stop talking to Mary Woronov in movies. First of all, she knows she was in Death Race 2000 and second, she can't hear you. It's getting uncomfortable.

a feminist allegory of two female's attempts to navigate through an apocalypse that has men continually wanting to take advantage of them. however, this message gets weakened when they need the help of (spoiler) regina's future husband. this is a bit smarter then a stereotypical cheesy 80s horror film, but its not entertaining enough to warrant many views.

This movie screams 80's: neon all over the place, legwarmers, and cheeseball pop songs. The one decent tune (a soundalike cover of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun") is reserved for the most famous scene: the mall. It's one of those scenes that demonstrates the exuberant consumerist glee of having a shopping center to run amok in. There's nothing terrible about this movie, but there's nothing great about it either. It's a silly, fun flick that's easy to watch. Maroney deserves special notice

This is one of my favorite post-apocalyptic movies. A guilty pleasure, sure. I mean, one of the main leads in the movie tries to find her dream-man by his high-score on an arcade game (which beat out "her" high score). Far fetched, but a fun 90 minutes.

Fun flick, could use more gore but that's a minor complaint. It's also got a very smart script, plays against expectations.
