When some college students get together for a hot tub party, they're shocked to find out that their party is being crashed by some tiny, uninvited guests who are hungry for flesh - human flesh.Here's what I learned about the director: he's 5'10"That's it.That and he looks like he's 50 and is flamingWhat's the point of girls in hot tubs if the film is black and white?It's a big let down.And guess what? The other part of this film that's annoying is that there are no midget zombies. Don't expect munchkin land gone amok. I think that most of the "midgets" are on their knees to make them look smaller.Once the camera pulls back you can see how tall they are!

You know those movies where you cringe because they are so bad? Like, you have second-hand embarrassment for whoever made the movie? Well, that's how I felt about this one. I saw this as a double feature with another Zombie film (Atom the Amazing Zombie Killer), and this movie almost made me walk out of the theater. The jokes tried way too hard, and the actors were awful (especially the "hot" girl who I'd score as a "three" in the dark). Unfortunately the only favorable review for this movie seems to be from Mr. Berggoetz himself, as the user "nummy3" (him I am assuming) has rated all his other films favorably as well. How sad. Well, to end this rant, my advice is don't see this crap, and people who are not funny should not make movies). The end.

Young twentysomething Amanda (Kristi McKay) deciding to throw a party after her parents depart was quite possibly the worst idea she could have. She invites over several of her friends for a weekend of fun and carelessness, when their party is crashed by none other than midget zombies hellbent on destruction. The gang takes refuge in Amanda's house and simply tries to stakeout for as long as they possibly can under uncertain circumstances.For this reason alone, Midget Zombie Takeover lives up to its title because it gives the viewer exactly what they want. Shot for $2,000 and not appearing to waste a dime of it, it comes off as a movie or a shot that I, myself, probably would've made with a close friend of mine if I had continued. This provides a close-to-home feel and a simple justification for the reason I enjoyed the camaraderie and silliness of the picture.This doesn't look like any horror film you're likely to have seen. It's shot under available sound conditions (some of the early party scenes are very difficult to hear) and lighting conditions, and features some amateur acting and special effects. This adds to its credibility and fun but also orchestrates something that is rather disengaging. Even at seventy-two minutes there's only so much one can take from this overly-silly, rambunctious material. Once the idea is out there and the gears of the plot have been running for about forty minutes, you sort of feel yourself becoming cold to the material.The film was directed by Glenn Berggoetz, whose film The Worst Movie EVER! made headlines for grossing only $11 opening weekend from one ticket sale. Clearly, quantity of the film's gross and quality don't go hand-in-hand because the film was a fun, genial little endeavor that showed the joys of low-budget filmmaking and tremendously laughable plot lines in action, all at a concise seventy-five minutes. Berggoetz seems to be one of the only filmmakers today that wants to channel the Mystery Science Theater-movie style and I'd say he is more than qualified. Midget Zombie Takeover can be testy at times as far as pacing goes, but nonetheless, the amateurism provides a close-to-home nature, the action is kind of fun, and it's pleasant and harmless all the more.NOTE: Midget Zombie Takeover will be screening at festivals throughout the United States.

This is one strange film (some dirty talk at one point makes reference to asparagus), and while it was obviously made on a small budget (therefore it doesn't have much gore in it which could disappoint some zombie film fans), this is one of the funniest films I've seen in a long time. The film revolves around some college kids who gather together for a hot tub party, then get attacked by little zombies. The way the kids get killed are rather bizarre and hilarious, and I saw things in this film that I've never seen before. For example, there's a "death by ass" - that's all I'll say about that one. And there's a scene where one of the tiny zombies, while feeding on the co-ed he's just killed, gets, let's say, a little frisky with the corpse. Needless to the say, if you're looking for some high-brow indie film or an indie film with tons of blood and gore, this isn't the film for you. But if you're looking to just have a good time watching a film (and maybe incorporate a drinking game while watching - taking a drink every time a character comforts someone with the phrase "There, there" will leave you quite tipsy by the end of the film), then make sure to see this film.
