"Violent Sh*t III: Infantry of Doom" (yes I have to censor this title, so that IMDb will accept my review) is a German movie from 1999, so this one will have its 20th anniversary two years from now. The title already tells us that this is the third of so far four films from the "Violent Shît" movie series written by, directed by and starring Andreas Schnaas. This time the gang is at a (not so) deserted island where a bloodlusty cult keeps killing everything they meet, so when a trio of strangers enter the island, they are obviously in for a lot of trouble. The island inhabitants (a strange cult led by Schnaas' character) allows them to flee for a day, but then the relentless chase begins. Who will prevail in the end? Does it even matter? I'd say no as I cannot say I enjoyed these 75 minutes (without credits) at all. Then again, this is probably not too surprising as I found the previous two films were pretty crappy too. Amateur filmmaking really means amateurish in Schnaas' case from what I have seen so far and I don't think the 4th and so far final film will be more to my liking, even if Schnaas was not the only guy in charge there and many years passed after this third movie. Eventually, this one here is about nothing other than the gore, exploding heads in particular, which are a recurring depiction in here. Story really sucks and (voice) acting is just as bad. The only positive thing I can say here is that sometimes the film was so trashy that it had moments of guilty pleasure potential. But these were not enough (not even close) to make up for all the garbage moments in here to be honest. I wish I could say I enjoyed this movie only for 1% of the way the actors here enjoyed it as it seems pretty obvious they did. It's crap from start to finish. Highly not recommended.
... View MoreI saw this movie under the title Zombie Doom, I would imagine that the only differences between that version and the original version entitled VS3 Infantry of Doom is that it is dubbed instead of subtitled.This movie has it all, gore, action, ninjas (one of them even has a flying guillotine), hilarious dubbing, even more hilarious and usually nonsensical dialog, the director as a masked killer in a diaper, gore, gore and more gore!!! This isn't what you'd call a "good movie", but there is a lot of fun to be had.For instance, the comical dubbing I mentioned earlier, yeah it really is hilarious. So is the dialog, especially from the character mark, or as I like to call him "the philosopher", spouting such thought provoking lines as:"Trouble is this starts to make us puke at each other, I make them wanna puke, they make me puke and so on""You reach a point, where you just puke at each other. I'll kill 'em all"Watch the movie and you'll understand. As you can already tell this guy seems to be awfully fond of puke.Now for the most important part, the gore. It's there, and it's amazing. Highlights include faces and stomachs being pulled apart with hooks, Karl Jr.'s minions showing one unlucky guy what a "pain in the *ss" he is (emphasis on "pain in the *ss"), a guy who gets sliced clean in half with a machete and then gets his head cut in half as well, a guy who kicks right through a ninja, a guy getting experimented on by having all of his innards pulled out of his body, and much, much more.Several more things of interest include the Black Demons...err... Ninjas...err...Demons, unexplained zombies, the tiny robot killer, not to mention a scene where two characters hide in the bushes from a minion looking to steal his jacket and rather than sneaking up on him, one casually walks out and says "hey retard, I want your jacket", the scene where Karl the Butcher Jr. gives a speech about "friendship" and "peace", and a decapitated head squirting out blood (with the hose visible).All these things make the movie a comical and worthwhile watch, I have never seen any of the other Violent Sh*t movies, but it's not essential to enjoy this movie."The world is full of puke and sh*t, and now a horde of tin masked *ssholes are puked in our faces filled with sh*t" - Mark
... View MoreI cannot believe how bad this piece of garbage is! I want my $3.99 back! Words defy description of this poorly made piece of crap! The dubbing in no way shape or form aligns with the actor's mouths. The movie looks like it was filmed with a 1970's vintage camcorder. I have shot better movies with my cell phone camera. The gore is laughable due to the silly unbelievable plot. The acting is what one would expect if you called all your friends over on a Saturday afternoon and proceeded to get completely ripped, then tried to put on a play in your garage. Don't get me wrong...I wasn't expecting O'Neil and I love Zombie movies, but the production values are so low in this film as to make it unwatchable. Avoid!
... View MoreWow...I can't believe just how bad ZOMBIE DOOM (aka VIOLENT SH!T 3) really is. I'd heard the rumors, read the reviews - but had to make my mind up for myself. Well, let me tell ya - IT BLOWS!!! The worst acting of any film ever made, dubbing that must have been done while everyone involved was completely wasted, inept and laughable gore FX, no discernible plot, "cinematography" that looks like my grandma filmed it with her camcorder, weapons props that are no joke - made out of tin-foil - the list goes on and on...Three guys get stranded on an island where a bunch of weirdos run around with plastic and tin-foil swords. Two of the captives are freed along with a rebel of the island freaks, and are given a day's head start before they are hunted down by the rest of the "tribe"...that's pretty much it...Honestly - this is one of THE WORST films I've ever had the misfortune to subject myself too. The budget had to be about $200 and was spent entirely on the gore FX (which actually may not have been a bad idea...). There is NOTHING to ZOMBIE DOOM other than strung-together ridiculous looking gore scenes with lots of HORRIBLY dubbed dialog. This film makes other no-budget outings like PREMUTOS: LORD OF THE LIVING DEAD look like TITANIC. Some may rank ZD in the "so-bad-it's-good" category - and I guess if you're REALLY drunk or high and watching it with a few friends MST3K-style - I guess it could be looked at that way. But not by me. I hated pretty much everything about it. If ZOMBIE DOOM or ZOMBIE 90 (which is equally appalling and is included as a "bonus" on the Shock-O-Rama release of ZD) is indicative of Andreas Schnaas' other works - then he should be banned from ever having anything to do with making a film ever again under penalty of death. There is one amusing kung-fu battle in the latter half of the film, and a lot of blood - so I'll grant this one a VERY generous 3/10 - Do yourself a favor and skip this.
