Texas Voodoo Zombies (Ep. 23) 2:15:48

4y ago2:15:48

2:15:48

In this episode we review a zombie movie that defies all reason: the acting is atrocious, the camerawork is awful, the plot is nonsensical, each of the characters are a combination of racist, misogynistic, or in some other way bigoted, and the zombies feel like they were an afterthought, tacked on in the third act. However, for all that is wrong wi…
