With alternative titles Zombies! Zombies! Zombies! Or Strippers vs. Zombies, depending on which continent you live, the emphasis here is hardly on subtlety.

The plot:
A scientific experiment to develop a panacea for cancer goes awry when narcotics are inadvertently mixed with the potent cocktail, resulting in a potion that, instead of curing The Big C, turns those given the stuff into flesh hungry zombies.
As the menace spreads, all hope seems lost, the crunching dead seemingly unstoppable. Unstoppable, that is, until they encounter a rather feisty group of strippers who are hellbent on protecting their strip club from the rotting menace.

Ridiculous, yes, but deliberately so and actually pulled off with some style.
The acting is pretty awful and the special effects laughable, but this has a lot of charm, principally because it is clear that all involved are having a hoot.
Let's be honest here, you write and direct a movie called Strippers vs. Zombies, you ain't trying to make the next Shawshank. The intention all along is to make a straight to video exploitation piece and, truthfully, that's just about what they managed.
A horror comedy that actually makes you laugh on occasion - a rarity indeed - with a nice line in subversive humour, this is nothing if not enjoyable.
True horror devotees only need apply, but if you know what to expect and get off on that sort of thing, you'll enjoy this a lot.
