1/5

An instance where the concept and execution feel so unengaging that, while others might find some joy, this felt irritating from the opening scenes and never let up.

3/4

Never forgets its audience's sensibilities and makes for some truly great Halloween festivities...

A clunky, low-budget zombie send-up, Dance has heart and a few surprises, but it swallows patience by the pound, reheating screenplay leftovers and trying to disguise the results under the forgiving blanket of the horror genre.

4.5/5

It's fast and funny, sick and sweet, geeky and gory. Basically, a whole lot of fun.

If you love zombie movies, teen comedies or just guilty pleasure films, then Dance of The Dead is a must see.

Good fun. Well cast. Tight enough script. More comedy than horror. Had a budget and first zombie sex scene adds 1/2 a star. There were very few spots where I felt the desire to fast forward. Deliberately cliched - it worked.

High school graduation and zombies, yay. These are the quick zombies if one cares about that differentiation. And excepting one zpmbie make-out session that's gonna need more ketchup there's little here that hasn't been done elsewhere and much better. And that is that. Save it for later if you must.

Really good, funny, zombie flick. This is the kind of movie you can watch with friends and make a party of it.

Probably the only Ghosthouse Underground entry to feature humor, this is an odd entry. It's not awful, like most of the GH flicks, but not one of the few good ones either- it just kind of 'is.' It's a fun independent, but nothing really new in any way. Effects are fine, the cast is good, but. Nothing that really makes it stand out or memorable.
