Disappointing.

Hehe oh yeah it was a Hong Kong one, my bad. Sucks to make mistakes on a movie board when the answers are a mere click away! =p

Haven't seen it for a while, but Biozombie was way more fun and so much more entertaining than Junk. Bz wasn't really trying to be serious and it blended the comedy and horror genres so well. It was refreshing change of pace from the other zombie movies I had seen.

I guess Junk was trying to blend like a crime or gangster film with zombies, but it just didn't work. "Versus" did a better job of having zombies and gangsters and even some comedy, but by the end it turned into like a Highlanderesque sci-fi thing which was pretty silly.

I only saw junk because all of my friends said it was awesome... they arent my friends anymore. i liked dawn of the dead 78 and o4 i liked night of the living dead, i liked 28 days later. but im telling you right now THIS F---ING MOVIE BLOWS!!!!!! though Im quite amazed that the writer came up with a "title" as well as a "description of the film" with the same word. i would have changed the name to "I S*** ON A FILM GENRA" or "JIZZ ON A FILM NEGATIVE" or ooh oh how about "STEAMING COIL" ooh cmon say it with me "STEEEEeeeEEEAMING COOOoooOOOIL" it has sort of a ring to it that could only created from hearing fingernails scratching on a blackboard. How about the score right when The main title appears. sounds a little like the Terminator 2 opening credits.

Maybe I should have had different expectations, but I was really disappointed by Junk. It's got a premise that promises all-out gory zombie action, but the movie hardly delivers. There are dozens of zombies in the picture, but little in the way of actual action that one usually expects in a zombie movie (i.e. lots of head bashes, gory gunshots to the head and torso), and the movie takes too long to get going.

I think the most interesting aspect of the movie has to be how much it looks and feels like an Italian zombie film. The undead in this movie usually tend to have their heads bowed down and they move at an infinitesimal pace by even zombie standards, much like those in Lucio Fulci's films. There's even a zoom shot on a maggot-infested corpse!

In fact, the movie feels like a pastiche of everything that was wrong with Fulci's movies: bad acting, bad writing, often unconvincing make-up effects, and a complete lack of logic, with none of the positive elements that Fulci's movies boasted (Fulci's movies usually had strong atmosphere and a good, eerie use of location).
