Develiker terrible... so disappointed.

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

cujoe_da_man What can I say? I've been on a "bad movie" binge since The Force Awakens came out and have been snatching not only Star Wars style movies, but many others and this one popped up on my radar through a movie search on Best Buy of all places. I decided that it couldn't be too bad, I mean we don't ever expect huge quality from Asian filmmakers, otherwise they would be in Hollywood, right? That being said, there's something special about Asian movies, whether from Japan or in this case, Taiwan. I had not looked up any reviews or did any other searching, wanting to keep this for a surprise when I watched it... and man, surprised was the right word.There is a game of the same name by Kongregate, I'm not sure if it's related, but who knows. This also has NOTHING to do with Fight Club in any way, shape or form. Sorry, no Brad Pitt to bridge a connection between Fight Club and World War Z (admit it, you'd watch that if it were a movie).I won't spoil it too much, but there's just some things that need to be mentioned.The movie opens up to a run down apartment building and a sudden assault of about three different stories at the same time happening. It's easy enough to keep track of each of these individual plots, but to be honest, they could have cut it down to two... or maybe one, being the "police" team. I'm not even sure if they were indeed law enforcement.One of the issues this movie has is it likes to tease you with just a bit of story, but never really explain anything. I would go into more detail, but I would be here all day. This happens for about the first half-ish of the movie before getting into the really dirty zombie infestation.Toward the 2/3-ish mark, everything literally switches gears and you are suddenly thrust into a post apocalyptic, zombie filled "Mad Max in Thunderdome" style story where the last three remaining survivors of the apartment are shown. One of which is Andy, from the ill-fated police raid on the "mafia", next is Jenny, and finally prof. Wu Ming, who you will remember went psycho after his daughter (Nana) was killed and murdered everyone else. He has become a dictator of sorts, while Adam and Jessica are forced to fight zombies in a gladiator style fight. Honestly, I did not realize Andy and Jenny were the main characters until the last part of the movie, nothing ever leads you to believe that they would make it that far.The last 1/3 of the movie is literally just a few fights and it ends with Wu Ming being killed by his zombiefied daughter whom he has kept locked in a cage until he can fine a cure. Jenny seems to not know where she is or what is going on, despite having been in the middle of all this for a year, but it is never explained.Yes, there are some T&A scenes, though nothing really great to see, possibly due to limits in Chinese censorship. Lots of blood, about half of which is CG. In fact, there is a great deal of CG in this movie, I don't personally have a problem with that, but there are numerous scenes where it is so apparent that it looks like it was done in the late 90's. A great deal of their motion tracking is lacking as you sometimes see blood stains actually trailing behind the object they're supposed to be staining.There is even a scene with an old man that I swear is Pat Morita, but this movie came out well after he passed away. He ends up being some sort of "soldier", but I'm not exactly sure of what because he puts on a digital-cameo army suit and comes out with a pair of mechanical legs which are a complete rip of the lower legs of the power loader from Aliens. It looks like they stripped the foot plates off and lowered the hydraulics, aside from that, it's a near match. It is also stamped with "ZOMB, 1970MAY19" and what could be mistaken as the Umbrella logo from Resident evil. This scene comes way out of left field and like many other scenes, there is NO explanation for it.Overall, if you're looking for a movie where you can just turn your brain off and enjoy some blood, zombies and girls, this will be for you, but please keep an open mind, you aren't getting Dawn of the Dead or Resident Evil with this movie, it's purely fluff and should be taken as such.--- A little about my rating. I gave this a seven out of ten, keeping in mind that I knew this would most likely be a "bad" movie. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt because it looks like everyone had fun making this movie and even with the confusing plot points, it still got the idea across that "zombie bad, kill zombie" is what we came to see and it's certainly what we got.Just have fun with it.

tcbdeo Films without plots can be done well given good direction and acting. Well-written films can be good despite bad directors and actors. Zombie Fight Club has no good element in its production."So bad it's good" doesn't even fly with this film. The more-American-than-American accents provide the bulk of the humor. The film's focus on the innate evil of humanity (its only constant) oozes away any value a good riffing might redeem it with.Zombie Fight Club directly takes elements of The Raid and The Walking Dead and removes the elements of 'Redemption'. Instead, the martial arts police are dirty cops and the civilians are plagued by a distinctly East Asian pathology. The crux of Zombie Fight Club is the argument that humankind is innately evil, and, pushed to the limit, will gleefully discard its visage of goodness. Even the two protagonists, who bear a transparent semblance of morality, lack any dignity.Romero's legacy is dismantled and digitally spit on by Zombie Fight Club. If you want to enjoy a poor zombie movie, stick to films like Redneck Zombies. In the very least, the garage special effects will be more entertaining than Zombie Fight Club's digital massacre.

amesmonde A building riddled with a menagerie of working girls, criminals and loners find the corridors of their apartment block infested with zombies.Oh my have things have progressed since Junk Shiryōgari (2000) and Versus (2000) (certainly in the effects department), Zombie Fight Club (2014) is better than the influx of recent DTV walking dead movies globally produced, in contrast to most Asian dead movies its light on humour, tonally it's reminiscent of The Horde (2009), Rammbock/Berlin Dead (2010) mixed with Joe Chien's own twisted incoherent Zombie 108 (2012). Chien's zombie offering is packed with action, actually wall to wall bloodshed, excellent make-up effects and an abundance of practical and CGI blood which puts some American modest budget zombie films to shame. It's colour palette is dark, accompanied by a pumping soundtrack, it's undeniably fast paced. Oddly it inexplicably interchanges between English and Mandarin and it's a film of unorthodox two halves with no third act.When it does slowdown it has a fistful of creepy moments but these are few and far between as buxom beauty Jenny played by Jessica Cambensy witnesses her boyfriend, his crew of rappers and strippers come toe to toe with growing army of zombies. After a flash forward a year after the outbreak Jenny has gone all zombie killer sporting a new hair cut and an even tighter costume (yes there's the shameless objectification of women but no more than The Resident Evil franchise tries to gloss over).What it lacks in plot it makes up for with its kick-ass female and male characters, soldiers and loads of zombie kills, impalement, bullets and action setups. Yes the characters are at times cartoonish and its gratuitous but it's a solid addition to the Asian live action zombie market, if you're in to it.

Brooke G After seeing the low rating and reading the one review I wasn't expecting much but I think the reviewer watched a different movie and should stick to Disney movies as this was great.After watching the great (REC) 4 the day before where the original had a load of people trapped in an apartment block with infected people, this one also has a load of people trapped in an apartment block with lots of zombies. Along with a lot more blood, action and I mean a LOT of the afore mentioned zombies. Plus a load of scantily clad pretty girls, a couple, some military, old ex-fighter and army guy and many more characters all trying to escape.The 2nd part of the movie shows an apocalyptic world over run with zombies, forcing people to live underground where the leaders surrounded by yet again more girls. These leaders force people to fight zombies for entertainment. Once again people are fighting to survive and escape this barbaric underground existence. But with zombies roaming above ground there is little choice of where to go.Some of the CGI effects look a little cheap at times and sometimes it looks great with some neat effects. The whole look of the movie, the settings and zombie makeup is really good. There is quite a bit of female nudity, semi-nudity, sexual content, a bit of lesbian acts, lots of blood and gore, some bad language and lots of violence. If you don't any of that in a movie then go watch Frozen or something similar, as this is not the movie for you.I watched this because I'm trying to watch every zombie movie and after seeing (REC) 4 yesterday and this today it's been a good couple of days and 2 great additions to my list of zombie movies seen. :)Gave it 7 out of 10, one of the better movies in this genre.
