Dead Meat is an Irish zombie film released under Fangoria's GoreZone banner. I kept my expectations as low as possible and was very pleasantly surprised. If Let Sleeping Corpses Lie was remade with the humor of Peter Jackson and the style of Sam Raimi, you would have Dead Meat. And it has that great low budget gore. You know what I'm talking about. A vacuum cleaner sucks out an eyeball, a man is clubbed to death by...The Club, zombies are killed by high heels, and much more. The cinematography, again surprisingly, is also excellent. It has an odd compressed look, but it fits the film and they showcase some great scenery. Director Conor McMahon may steal a few too many pages from the book of Sam Raimi, but that frenetic style is perfect for this movie. I also loved the characters, especially Mr. Cheunt. I actually had to hit the subtitle button after he showed up but he had me in tears laughing. My only problems with the film were the abrupt ending and the running time of 75 minutes. It actually left me wanting more. I'd suggest checking this out, especially if you enjoyed the recent Undead.
