Another US-financed film made in Singapore by director Christopher Hatton. Surprisingly enough, this one turns out to be a sequel to his ROBOTROPOLIS, which was a sci-fi movie about a force of robot policemen who turned rogue and started killing off the civilian population. Hatton ups the ante in this one by including Dolph Lundgren and zombies, so it sounds pretty much like a B-movie lover's dream.And, truth be told, it isn't so bad for what is quite obviously a cheap B-flick. There's plentiful action on offer here from beginning to end, and the return of the robots, which I enjoyed in ROBOTROPOLIS, was something of a small delight for me. The generic zombie attack stuff is less successful, but then again the viewer is treated to the unique spectacle of seeing Lundgren kicking zombie backside, which is entertaining in itself.BATTLE OF THE DAMNED is, in the end, a film which overcomes the usual obstacles of bad acting and sub-par dialogue to become a mildly entertaining film. Yes, the CGI explosion effects and the like are pretty poor, and the narrative is always predictable. But director Hatton is like a kid in a sweet shop, always having fun, and some of that fun rubs off on the viewer.

After a zombie outbreak in Asia, the mercenary Major Max Gatling (Dolph Lundgren) is hired by a wealthy industrialist that was the responsible for the pandemic to rescue his daughter Jude (Melanie Zanetti) with his team from a city. Max loses his group that is killed by the zombies and stays alone to accomplish his assignment. He finds Jude and learns that there are other survivors; Duke (David Field), Reese (Matt Doran), Elvis (Jen Sung), Lynn (Lydia Look) and Anna (Oda Maria). She refuses to flee alone without the others and Duke and Elvis handcuff Max on a power pole to die. However, when Reese discovers that Jude is pregnant and the city will be firebombed, he rescues Max to save Jude. Then they find a group of robots killing zombies and Max reprograms them to help the survivors to escape. Will the group succeed to escape?"Battle of the Damned" is a laughable movie with Dolph Lundgren in the lead role. The idea of zombies and robots is original but the execution is very poor: terrible screenplay and dialogs are terrible; and the camera work in the mayhem of zombies is awful. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "Zumbis e Robôs" ("Zombies and Robots")

it's bad on so many levels- I don't even care enough to get into all the logic flaws in the story; here's just a few of the dozen... from the "hardened" borderline-elderly super delta soldier who's supposed to be the best of the best- but has moosed up gel in his hair the whole movie and needs glasses to read a map... to riding a silly motorcycle up & down the streets in a zombie infested city- a motorcycle? really? how do they pump gas at all the stations with no electricity? even the robots were lame; in one scene the robots are slinging zombies everywhere- then a few minutes later, 6 silly zombies are able to destroy a robot... why are zombies even interested in a metal robot when they can't infect it or eat it? if a zombie was into robots... then they would also be into eating cars! STUPID! you never have any REAL connection to any of the characters- so much of the story just doesn't make any sense if you think it through.acting = F Directing = D Story = C+ Script= D-I was actually waiting for Rambo to pop out with a knife in his mouth. the protagonist was a total "rambo" wannabe. this movie was a total cheese fest- one of the worst executed scripts ever.

"Zombies, killer robots, nice town you got here." After a viral outbreak causes people to turn into zombies, military soldier Max Gatling (Lundgren) is called into battle. Not only must he fight off the zombie army with a few human survivors, but a group of robots that have been trained to kill as well. Even though it sounds made up I swear that is the plot of the movie. I know what your initial thought is but I have actually seen worse. The thing that helped the movie is that it didn't take itself too serious. If they tried to be straight line and make it seem like a real war movie it would have been un-watchable. The fact that they added comedy and made it a little over the top made it seem better then it actually was. I'm not saying this is a good movie at all because this wouldn't be in my top ten choices to watch ever but in terms of Dolph Lundgren movies there have been much worse. Overall, the robots look like a rip off of the Lost In Space robot and the zombie effects are barely passable. A severely low budget World War Z knock off but again I have seen worse. I give it a C.
