That fetus scene with skitch solidified that you're one of my favorite reviewers, a ridiculous "shock" scene treated with the contempt it deserves by adding that hilarious music.
Fun fact: I was one of the zombie extras. Two of the other zombie extras were a local couple I'd known for a while. A week after we filmed the night exterior scene, the guy murdered his girlfriend. This movie has been on my blacklist ever since.
If you look in the Guinness book under "Most Extensive Library Of Zany Incidental Music", you'll find Phelous, with no one else even coming close. Dude, you must have a whole external hard drive just for goofy themes.
How to get passed hundreds of zombies on your way to safety: Run directly at them, screaming the whole way, and kick up as much of a fuss as humanly possible so zombies for MILES around will know where you are and head your way! The perfect plan. *slow nod*
Automaton transfusion sounds like the name of a body horror film where people become robots, something like tetsuo the iron man...but instead we get This
lmao that baby scene, that girl didnt even have a baby bump and yet the fetus looked about 5 months old or so and shes at a kegger. that zombie did that fetus a favor honestly lol
I've seen this review before and yet I still keep forgetting that this is a zombie movie and not some kind of killer robot movie. What a confusing title! It sounds like it would be more fitting as an alternate title to Deadly Friend!
Well, if you go off the original folklore relating to zombies they actually behave a lot more like machines than flesh-eating cannibals, but this movie goes to no lengths to draw that connection making the title seem completely pointless and totally irrelevant.
'Automaton Transfusion' actually makes a lot more sense for Deadly Friend; there's both a robot, and that robot's brain being 'transfused' into a girl's body.
Am I the only one who notices that a supposedly pregnant woman is at a party with a solo cup in her hand when her fetus is ripped out, I guess she didn’t really care that much about her baby
And she just stands there stock-still. Not writhing in pain, passing out, or lashing out in a last-ditch effort to protect the unborn baby. Just standing and yelling an exclamation more fitting to a soap opera.
I unfortunately watched this movie back when it came out and yes the one interesting/hilarious/disgusting part is in fact the girl reacting with “my baby!” After being zombie punched lmao

Winter Steele A movie which The Cinima Snob later reviewed. And in the words of CS from that review, "This is what Fox News thinks happens inside of Planned Parenthood."
Token Black character: "Don't you see? I have suddenly lose all hope and go die fighting zombies. This movie is too stupid and formulaic to let me survive past the end of the second act!"
The "ripping out a fetus and eating it scene" is as grotesque as it is nonsensical...but what's a pregnant teenager even doing at a kegger, anyway? Very irresponsible since she was presumably drinking alcohol.
I was always curious about where that silly music came from, since you use it in a lot of your reviews. I guess I finally found my answer to the origin of those classic tunes!
Guys, I got some bad news now. 1. I got the DVD through A 6- pack of them. 2. As I was Typing out this movie for this review, I found out their's A sequel to this.
Zombies are sometimes described as "mindless automata" (or automatons, if you hate the English language) in that they seem almost programmed to do nothing but seek and consume living human flesh.
I don't know which is more disgustingly nonsensical, the zombie eating the teenager's fetus or the disgusting scene in Human Centipede 2 (you know the one)
I need to rip on this movie just as much as Phelous does, but it's only for one part: the scene with the zombie attacking the pregnant girl makes no sense in terms of how zombies work. Zombies have no form of intelligence what so ever, they attack by charging and pouncing on their prey much like a cheetah chasing a gazelle would. That zombie made a well aimed punch through that girl's stomach and ripped her baby out deliberately as if he knew she had one inside her and he wanted to get it. I have seen tons of zombie movies and zombie kills are never that precise or well executed because zombies don't have that kind of thought capacity. Automaton Transfusion, you have failed as a horror movie about zombies because you couldn't get the most basic aspect of these monsters correct
@ Denise Sierra. hmm I'd say zombies act more like rabid dogs or plagued rat swarms. see big cats(as well as wolves) actually aim for vitals (usually the throat) when they pounce/strike but rabid dogs or swarms of rats simply latch onto whatever they get their jaws on and begin tearing into their target which is more like what one see's in a zombie swarm when the devour a target ....
To this day I still don't know why this movie is called Automaton Transfusion. No automatons got any transfusions, there were no automatons at all. I'd say it was maybe a metaphorical title, but I dunno if the people who made this even know what a metaphor is.
When I first saw this, on the part where Zombie Matty arrived the party & started grabbing something in the girl, I think it was gonna be her guts. I didn't expect it being a baby.
10GaugeManiac I'd say John Voight's old legs of steel. I mean come on. You get surprise-killed by a 58 year old man (when he was doing Anaconda) in the most unexpected of matters.
i can't get over the "this town isn't on any map" part because what did they teach the kids in grade school when they started learning the states and memorizing counties and... you know, LEARNING ABOUT MAPS lmao. how is it even possible for all the people to grow up not knowing what country/state/whatever they live in!?
What really confuses me is the title, automaton is a phrase to describe a machine and this is a zombie movie. Does that mean the zombies are machines? Or they didn't care what they want to call their movie.
If you go off the original folklore relating to zombies they actually behave a lot more like machines than flesh-eating cannibals, but this movie goes to no lengths to draw that connection making the title seem completely pointless and totally irrelevant. :/
+IAmTheUnison Yeah, in the original Haitian folklore, a zombie was used to refer to a person who had his soul and body torn apart through black magic, leaving the now soulless body to be manipulable under a supernatural trance. The zombies do have some intelligence of their own, but lack any free will and are essentially mindless slaves of the sorcerer or "bokor." The original monsters in "Night of the Living Dead" were based more on the ghoul, a demonic/undead creature of Arabian folklore that is associated with graveyards, feeds on human flesh, and has the ability to shape-shift between human-looking and more animalistic forms. The characters in the movie even call them ghouls. Romero took that concept that gave them the ability to turn some of their human victims into more of their own kind (directly borrowed from the vampires of "I Am Legend"), while also giving them the appearance/movements more like someone under a trance (which is the only vague similarity they have to the original zombies). The only reason the name, "zombie," stuck with Romero's monsters was because Dawn of the Dead was later retitled to "Zombi," by people marketing it in certain European countries, which also resulted in other people trying to make their own "Zombi" movies to capitalize on the popularity started by Romero's film franchise. As one last side-note in retrospect, if Capcom was being more true to the original roots, the T-Virus mutated people should have been called ghouls (because they resemble demonic undead cannibals, driven purely by animal instinct, and can transform into more bestial forms like the Crimson Head and Licker), while the humans infected with Las Plagas parasites in the RE4/RE5 games and the RE Damnation movie would be more like the actual zombies (since those are otherwise normal humans that had their minds taken over and now serve as slaves to the hive-mind of their cult masters, with some level of intelligence, dexterity, and speaking skills intact).
so this review made me do some researchin into the movie, and apparently another review had this to say about the director: "Steven C. Miller will be a household name by the end of 2007, you just watch, Automaton Transfusion is only the beginning"" what in the good goddamn???? like, yeah for horror indie shlock it hits all the targets, but lets not go overboard with the praise. luckily phelous is around.
It's always hilarious to see people overpraising someone and saying that he/she will be THE MOST FAMOUS IN THE WORLD...only to realiza that its been 20 or so years since that quote and they were quickly forgotten
What a very bizarre title for a zombie movie, Automaton Transfusion sounds like a title for a movie about assimilating robot aliens or a movie about a mad scientist who kidnaps people and makes a monster that's a robot/human hybrid. SERIOUSLY WTF!🤔😲😧
so I'm confused on two things 1. what does the title have to do with the film? 2. why does mortal kombat get crap for fatalities and this movie tears a fetus out of this lady and you never hear about it?
I know this review was made years and years ago... but another thing this movie's intro gets wrong is that there is no way a zombie, who is frozen solid in a freezer, could move like that if at all.
@@floridaman4596 This or AVPR? Because one thing this has over that is you can actually SEE what's going on. It's blurry and shaky, but at least you can SEE it.
Why not have that stupid shock scene actually make sense? They could have had it bite her shoulder, she screams "no don't, please, I'm pregnant!" , the zombie knocks her down and bites her belly, and when he's beaten off her, you can see the dead baby inside her has been bitten into along with the mother.
damnit the title of the movie is so misleading I thought we would get something like the human centipede like a person gets their limbs cut off and replaced with robot limbs and is slowly turning into a robot maybe in one scene they remove the skin and replace it with metal or something bit no we just go a boring zombie flick.
Possibly the movies lowest point, and i bet they thought that would really draw in and shock the movies audience with it. If you have a shoe string budget with a huge ego, that's the kind of scene you'd put in your film. Edgey lol
Am I the only one who never got the "You gotta shoot then in the head" trope with zombies? I mean, think about it: If they eat, logically they must need a digestive systen and a circulatoiry systen to get the nutrients to their muscles so they can actually move around. If they can walk around without any form of energy, then that is kind of breaking the laws of physics here( Unless maybe if you throw magic into the picture, situation on which you can argue the energy that lets then move comes from the necromancer that created then or whatnot... Yeah, kind of weird how throwing magic INTO the picture makes zombies more scientifically plausible )., and by that logic, I am unsure why they actually need a functional neural systen. I mean, all of those internal orgains are there for a reason: The brain cannot operate if everything else isnt going smoothly... I am overthinking this.
I remember watching something once where the zombies would eventually die whether they were killed or not because their bodies would continue to degrade and the only reason a headshot was necessary is because they're not alive but literally just reanimated. So in other words even though they have the urge to eat it doesn't actually nourish them. Maybe that's why zombies are always hungry? So by destroying the head you're taking away what guides their impulses. It's an interesting question though and I wish more zombie movies would play with different types of zombies. I could really get into a zombie movie where they had to be burned and any remaining piece would continue to animate. You could get some interesting visuals in something like that, especially in the hands of the right director.
@@GrowlyGal Check out Return of the Living Dead. In that movie, the zombie pieces will continue to act until completely obliterated. You get a scene of a severed arm choking a guy. It's a fantastic movie.
As soon as I seen the black guy I said "he's dead...." but it took awhile for him to die which means they didn't mind paying him a little extra and of course he dies for a dumb reason lol..
I laugh at how inaccurate the title is. An automaton is a mechanical puppet with real life-esque behaviors and responses. Famous ones include a automaton that can write poetry in English and French, and draw pictures. Another was known as The Turk, which could play chess. And a few others as well as the ones recorded to have been in the hanging gardens, and King Solomon's throne and garden.
Got a very serious question... Other than the obvious that @ToruKun1 asked - What was a Pregnant teen doing at a Kegger anyway?.... WHAT THE F**K IS WITH THAT TITLE? AUTOMATON TRANSFUSION? I was expecting some kind of Nanobot Virus!!!!
The spider was admittedly a foreshadowing for the zombie attack. While yes, I get denial and shock, too many movies have it to not be stupid. To be fair, zombies do have super strength because lack of nerve care. So yeah To be fair, military usually kills everyone on sight, so I can kinda see her immediate attacking.
That fetus scene with skitch solidified that you're one of my favorite reviewers, a ridiculous "shock" scene treated with the contempt it deserves by adding that hilarious music.

Zombies seem to be a popular subject for these low budget movies, don't they?
It's a comparatively cheap and easy to make, known public domain monster. The only thing easier is vampires.
@@BATCHARRO though vampires nowadays are just halloween fuckboys along with werewolves, so zombies it is.

Also, this is what Fox News thinks happens inside a Planed Parenthood.
And they considered the director of this film to make the remake of Motel Hell...
Thank god that film is still stuck in Development Hell.
A ripping-fetus-out-of-womb-and-eating-it scene... Yup... And why was that necessary?
Because shock equals horror...or at least, that's what this movie thinks.
The13th Rose where I've seen shock work with horror is in The Exorcist or the game series Outlast.
Also, this is what Fox News thinks happens inside a Planed Parenthood.
It's a shity redux of the fetus scene from "anthropophagus"

The shaky cam. Appears in some action films as well but these things make me nauseating...
I mean the shaky cams. xD
A baby a day keeps the logic away....
5:31 Hi! Get back in your car, windows up, lock the doors, buckle up, and plow through them.
why are there so many zombie films?
Zombies are cheap as heck to make. You can literally make zombie effects with liquid latex, toilet paper, some makeup and a bit of fake blood.
Well why else wouldn't it be Florida?
Maggie Offutt must be the water or something
Maggie Offutt I’m surprised none of them threw a Molotov; BORRRTTLLEEEESS!
Am I the only one who never got the "You gotta shoot then in the head" trope with zombies? I mean, think about it: If they eat, logically they must need a digestive systen and a circulatoiry systen to get the nutrients to their muscles so they can actually move around. If they can walk around without any form of energy, then that is kind of breaking the laws of physics here( Unless maybe if you throw magic into the picture, situation on which you can argue the energy that lets then move comes from the necromancer that created then or whatnot... Yeah, kind of weird how throwing magic INTO the picture makes zombies more scientifically plausible )., and by that logic, I am unsure why they actually need a functional neural systen. I mean, all of those internal orgains are there for a reason: The brain cannot operate if everything else isnt going smoothly... I am overthinking this.
Dado Bojart I would love to see a zombie story where the zombie apocalypse doesn't take off, but it gets cotained like shaun of the dead
I remember watching something once where the zombies would eventually die whether they were killed or not because their bodies would continue to degrade and the only reason a headshot was necessary is because they're not alive but literally just reanimated. So in other words even though they have the urge to eat it doesn't actually nourish them. Maybe that's why zombies are always hungry? So by destroying the head you're taking away what guides their impulses. It's an interesting question though and I wish more zombie movies would play with different types of zombies. I could really get into a zombie movie where they had to be burned and any remaining piece would continue to animate. You could get some interesting visuals in something like that, especially in the hands of the right director.
@@GrowlyGal Check out Return of the Living Dead. In that movie, the zombie pieces will continue to act until completely obliterated. You get a scene of a severed arm choking a guy. It's a fantastic movie.
Also not to mention you know the zombies would bloat from the gut bacteria as it's in Florida witch as of Dec 39 is 75 degrees
Everybody's talking about the fetus scene and I'm over here thinking about how good veal is. 😆
4:26 I feel like this is probably not far from the truth :)
You do have to admit: for a movie made on just $30,000, it honestly doesn’t look that bad
Well if this movie takes place in Europe Bass Knuckles are legal
The baby ripping scene was the best part of this shit pie ala mode.
As soon as I seen the black guy I said "he's dead...." but it took awhile for him to die which means they didn't mind paying him a little extra and of course he dies for a dumb reason lol..
I had the same thought with the kid with the glasses.
I laugh at how inaccurate the title is. An automaton is a mechanical puppet with real life-esque behaviors and responses. Famous ones include a automaton that can write poetry in English and French, and draw pictures. Another was known as The Turk, which could play chess. And a few others as well as the ones recorded to have been in the hanging gardens, and King Solomon's throne and garden.
never noiticed until now, but Phelous and Skitch look pretty similar
After seeing title: are the zombies TRANSFORMERS in disguise?
4.2.22
Got a very serious question... Other than the obvious that @ToruKun1 asked - What was a Pregnant teen doing at a Kegger anyway?.... WHAT THE F**K IS WITH THAT TITLE?
AUTOMATON TRANSFUSION? I was expecting some kind of Nanobot Virus!!!!
This movie has a similar plot to the show between, where there's an experiment that is conducts on the town of pretty lake where you die at the age 22
Jesus Christ the shaky cam
As a positive at this point. @13:49 The black guy wasn't killed first. Apparently, his agent couldn't get him out of the movie.
Another great video, Phelan.
What movies you gonna review now?
Sora Song On his website, Phelous recently reviewed the movie Dragon Ball: The Path to Power
The spider was admittedly a foreshadowing for the zombie attack. While yes, I get denial and shock, too many movies have it to not be stupid.
To be fair, zombies do have super strength because lack of nerve care. So yeah
To be fair, military usually kills everyone on sight, so I can kinda see her immediate attacking.
WHY DOES EVERY SINGLE BAD HORROR MOVIE HAVE AT LEAST 1 PERSON THAT LOOKS LIKE SKYDOESMINECRAFT IN THE SCHOOL INTRO SCENE?!?!?!
