Synopsis
This Japanese, rock and roll, horror cult-film classic tells the tale of an alien invasion that causes earthlings to return to life as flesh-eating zombies. This strange occurrence happens while Ace, and avid fan of rockabilly, is en route to a concert featuring his favorite band, Guitar Wolf. When things get a little too crazy, Ace summons the help of Guitar Wolf and the whole crew gets caught up in a series wild, bloody adventures complete with appearances by naked women with guns, delirious rock managers in hot pants, and transsexuals. All of this happens while the zombies are hot on their trail.

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpeice, 2 Nov 2003
Aliens. Horror. Gore. Cool, cool music. And zombies in love.
Trash punk sci-fi horror at its stunning best. Do yourself a favour and see this movie. Check out Guitar Wolf albums too.

5.0 out of 5 stars At Last, a Zombie movie with real Rock!!, 20 Dec 2004
By Mac Poole "Mac" (Scottish Borders) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you are like me and have always lamented the lack of Rock 'n' Roll in your Zombie movies, then this movie cures all that. The hero is your actual, guitar and gun toting, rock star, with his own band and cool is just not adequate to describe it all. It's a rock, horror, action, love story with some classic posing and a range of weird characters, that live in the memory long after the film has finished.
Despite it being Japanese and somewhat incomprehensible at times, this only adds to the film's magic.
The end scene with the guitar deserves legendary cult status and I will not spoil it for you here but what a magnificent novel and impressive way to use your guitar to end a movie.
A very cool movie. Buy or rent and love it. Rock 'n' Roll!

5.0 out of 5 stars the most amazing rubbish!, 12 Aug 2004
By Lorj (Brighton, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wild Zero [VHS] [2000] (VHS Tape)
I watched this movie with a beer in my hand and mustard covered cocktail sausages in my mouth, and I'm sure this made it all better. Yes, it's badly made and doesn't seem to make sense, but that doesn't matter! The main character "Ace"'s devotion to "Rock 'n' Roll" only makes it funnier! It's a totally cool movie, don't be put off by the fact thats you have to read all the Japanese subtitles, it's a great film!
