Zombie Nation is a 2005 American independenthorror film written and directed by Ulli Lommel and starring Brandon Dean, Phil Lander, Karen Maxwell, Naidra Dawn Thomson, and Victoria Ullmann.[1] Despite its title, only six zombies appear in the entire film.
Police officer Joe Singer lives a secret night life in which he kidnaps women, and takes them bound to his warehouse loft, injects them with a mysterious liquid, and then murders them. During his day shift as a cop, Joe is angry and vitriolic on the job. He arrests a woman for jay walking and she ends up in the loft. A psychiatrist visits Joe and keeps repeating, "Is it safe?"
A group of Voodoo priestesses perform a ritual that brings several of Joe's victims back to life as zombies. These girls attack and eat random people before they eventually find Joe.
Reception
Reviews of the film have been overwhelmingly negative. Variety called Zombie Nation "a jaw-dropping mess" and "the kind of daft what-were-they-thinking camp exploitation exercise that could prove manna for midnight-slot programmers".[1] The review continued, "By the time serial murder victims rise from their graves looking like Spice Girls knockoffs, it's clear the writer-director's tongue is at least partially in cheek. Fortunately, most of his cast does not appear to have been let in on the joke."[1]
