WOW! I saw this for 48 cents and thought it might be one of the worst zombie movies ever made for that price. It is, and was fun as long as you don't expect a scrap of quality.Yikes it had promise
College kids boobs and gore how can you go wrong....Oh dorm of the dead does it. I am a huge Zombie movie guy buy anyone I see under 10 bucks. I picked this one up and was very disapointed if you are rich I say buy it for the collection. It there in mine and will probably never leave the collection shelf again.
garbage
i dont think the guy who made thie movie ever saw a zombie flick.one scene the zombies have super strength,doing backflips off of walls,the next they are kissing some guy.i wasted an hour of my life sitting thru this garbage,if i can save one person from this buying movie,it was worth it.Simply "No"
I discovered this film while exploring others that include Tiffany Shepis; saw her for the first time in the Hazing, a film that I very much enjoy, and thought that she may be indicative of other films that I might enjoy, particularly campy horror. Not so, at least in this film. Dorm of the Dead is a not so creative zombie flick set on a college campus that is unfortunately beleaguered by so many shortcomings that it just can't be enjoyed. I tend to be able to find something redeeming in almost any movie, but am fully lacking any glimmer of hope on this one. The cameras seem to be some of the cheapest imaginable; not only is the actual capture technology very low, but the set work is super low as well. Terrible lighting, poor directional lighting, etc. make me feel like I'm watching something that my father filmed, and he can barely find the power button on his $100 camcorder. Notwithstanding that, the zombies aren't quite believable. Previous movies have taught us that budget is by no means a prerequisite for a good zombie flick. However, in this case, the partially amorous zombies end up leaving more of their makeup than blood on their victims. You get the picture. I do that it might set a record for most female flesh shown in the first ten minutes, save for the films that are marketed for this specific purpose. Terrible, and not even funny terrible.It does not get much worse than this
Synopsis: Clare (Jackey Hall) and Julie (Andrea Ownbey), the campus snobs of Arkham University, are attempting to seek their own brand of revenge on goth girl Sarah (Ciara Richards) and her friend Allison (Adrianna Eder). When the campus is overrun by zombies, the snobs see a good opportunity to get back at their black-clad enemies. Unfortunately, things may not go as smoothly as Clare & Julie want and they might be the zombies' prey instead. . .
Review: This is about as bad as a zombie flick can get these days. Other than the attractive females that like to take their clothes off, there isn't a single positive element to this stinkfest. It's not funny, it's not scary, it's just horrible. The story, if there is one, makes little sense at all. The script (if there actually was one and it wasn't just a bunch of idiots running around speaking in 90s clichés) is offensively bad, and it's only worsened by sincerely THE worst acting I've ever seen in my life (no exaggeration). I mean, these people make walking look difficult. They make Keanu Reeves look like Laurence Olivier. As the film progresses to the actual 'zombie invasion' (which, strangely, wasn't the first ten minutes when zombies were wandering all over campus), it only gets worse and worse. The direction during 'action' (for lack of a better word) scenes is almost unwatchable. Hell, even during the still shots, the camerawork is pathetic. By the end, it's a grueling experience to get through and I, with my very high tolerance for total crap, barely made it through. This is, without a doubt, one of the worst films I have ever seen and will probably ever see. Avoid at all costs.
Obligatory Zombie Elements:
Cause of Outbreak: The spread of blood of a zombie brought back to the states by some idiot professor. . . or something.
Zombie Characteristics: They're mostly slow, shambling, etc., except for the occasional one with superhuman strength and kung fu abilities.
Zombie Effects: Apparently powdered sugar and ketchup = Zombie faces. Not even remotely terrifying or realistic.
Violence/Gore: There may be quite a bit of zombie violence, but the gore is just ridiculously bad and some of the worst I've ever seen. If strawberry syrup and Fruit Roll-Ups are disgusting gore to you, then this is the film for you.
Sex/Nudity: The film spends the first ten or so minutes acting like softcore porn, but that ends abruptly and the rest of the film is spent mostly clothed.

Final Verdict: 1/10. Truly, truly painful.
Recommended? I would not wish this curse upon anyone.
