  • Zombie films are a dime a dozen these days. Whether they're fast or slow, the supply of zombie cinema has always been steady. But forgotten zombie movies feel few and far between. And good ones? Even more rare. So join us as we tear into the long forgotten shambler known as Flesheater.

    Found this in a box in a locked bathroom (which was bolted shut for years prior) when I ran a shitty video store. It was called "Revenge of the Living Zombies" with some photo of a zombie on the box. This film and about 100 horror and Kung Fu titles. It was my Holy Grail

    Glad to see this movie getting some exposure! I practically grew up with it because that's my dad at 3:48, Rik Billock. I met Bill Hinzman long before I ever saw the original Night of the Living Dead and he was the sweetest. I do remember it being fun and cheesy, but surprisingly solid. I'll have to watch it again, so thanks for putting it on peoples' radars :)

    I absolutely adore this film , it's charming as all hell as their ambitions for it are readily apparent , no re inventing the wheel with this one , they just went all out and had some exploitative fun with the resources and man/womenpower they had at their disposal
    I'm enamored with the specific time and place they captured , it's unique to that area of the world , Beaver Falls and the surrounding area , this isn't some generic location in Canada doubling as small town Usa , they filmed in unique locations that were probably never filmed before or after in the intervening years
    They captured that small hometown atmosphere to perfection , i always thought it was endearing from the first time i watched this in the early 00s on a Media Blasters DVD as part of a 3 movie Zombie Pack offering , i had no idea what to expect , i never even heard of it at the time , i pop it in and that music starts playing and then i see the tractor pulling the kids through the woods and the terrible dubbing starts , i was totally hooked
    This is one of those pure backyard films that gets a whole town involved in order to produce it and it shows , and that's a great thing as you can see the enthusiasm onscreen , and the local flavor shines through , you can't fake that
    Someone mentioned The Dead Next Door and it makes sense as these films share the same Dna , a small town production that has wild ambitions and although they may not reach those lofty heights , the effort they made in their attempt are what makes the respective films so endearing , that and the backyard production atmosphere
    Flesheater ( and TDND ) captured a very specific moment in time and place and it's why it endures all these years later , it's almost like comfort food for me on a mental level , i love going back to this world they created , and it's weird but no matter how many times i watch it , the feeling never subsides
    And yes , it does have some great gore effects and zombie action , if you want the traditional shamblers then this one has it and i totally appreciate that , nothing fantastical here ( save for the living dead :) ) , slow and lumbering , save for the main zombie himself but even he is more of a stumbler than a fast walker or sprinter
    I can't recommend this one enough for fans of low budget zombie films

    Some other stories, that were told to me by members of the crew (so these might be exaggerated or total bull):
    -- The gal playing the victim in only a towel promised if her towel was yanked off, she would kick Hinzman in the balls. Sure enough, the towel comes off and she kneed him in the balls.
    -- In the ending montage when locals are shooting the zombies, one particular guy thought he could handle filming the scene where he shoots a zombie kid. It ended up getting to him, however, and his tears on screen are genuine.
    -- This one I believe is mentioned on the DVD's interview with Jerry Gergely, but one of the FX guys in the crew was just about as competent as Jon Arbuckle. When told to go get a pig's heart at the local butcher for a gore scene, he brought back a sheep's heart, which is definitely not the same size as the human heart the pig's heart was meant to double.
