Night of the Groping Dead (2001)
** (out of 4)
Ultra low-budget take off on various zombie films from Seduction Cinema. Even though this sucker has a 2008 release date it was actually shot back in 2001 and it really shows. A woman (Ruby LaRocca) goes into the laundry mat to do some clothes as well as herself and after wards falls asleep. She eventually wakes up to a zombie molesting her and later she's turned into the zombie queen. She then sets her eyes on a young woman (Misty Mundae) who is good enough to eat but not in your typical zombie fashion. I should start off by saying that this is a rather horrid movie that should be looked at as nothing more than a student film but at the same time the movie clearly knows this and manages to be entertaining as long as you don't take it too serious. There are countless nods to earlier zombies movies including DAWN OF THE DEAD, which one woman wears a t-shirt of and there's even dialogue of "one of us" from Tod Browning's FREAKS. In terms of the softcore sex scenes they are actually pretty unerotic but then again what do you expect when zombies are molesting women? NIGHT OF THE GROPING DEAD was released as a bonus feature on the AN EROTIC WEREWOLF IN London set and makes for some low-budget fun.
