There is an awful lot of objectification going on for a movie that considers itself subversively feminist.

Reviews for Zombie Strippers
Stripping away all the lame political satire and cutting to the chase, there's admittedly something perversely effective about Jameson and company strutting their undead stuff against the appropriate death metal soundtrack.
"Zombie Strippers!" is what it is and makes no bones that it is a black comedy that capitalizes on the awesome, deteriorating bods of its gorgeous cast.
Jameson looks great and is very sexy, Englund chews the scenery, and it's all a lot of fun.
This is intentional 'B' movie heaven with absolutely no apologies from the filmmakers. Stay away if you can't stomach the bloody entrails of the zombie world. Do come if you want to have a hysterically good time. They don't care who they piss off.
The best part of "Zombie Strippers" may be the moment in line when you confidently stroll up to the ticket counter and proudly announce that yes, you will be purchasing one ticket for "Zombie Strippers."
It's still average schlock, albeit one with a little something for every discerning male; big breasts, fake breasts, heavily pierced breasts, breasts with star pasties and bloody pasty breasts that are the true stars.
This is a movie that contains Jenna Jameson shooting billiard balls out of her vagina and characters on an existential quest of self-purpose, who thirst to maintain their voice in a fascist country that squashes free thought to profit from misery. Yikes.
In the not-so-grand tradition of other straight-to-video/late-night-cable T&A-fests, the trouble with Zombie Strippers is that it doesn't come about its exploitation honestly.
The chicks may be topless, but this horror schlock wears its pretensions on its sleeve.
If you like zombies and you like strippers, than this movie has them both ... and that's about the only good thing that can be said about this awful waste of time.
Creepy and campy, sexy and sloppy, and probably best watched between the hours of 2-5 a.m. Or as a completely ridiculous double feature with Atonement.
By the time the film moves toward its conclusion and the gross-out factor really starts to rise, any semblance of even an exploitation story has fallen away like so many lopped-off limbs.
Though broader and less funny than Idiocracy, the political commentary of Zombie Strippers is effectively one-note.
The film feels more like unusually well-funded softcore (complete with boring tedium) than sexed-up horror, though its splatter effects are enjoyably cartoonish.
Nudity, blood, violence, clever dialogue, and stripper zombies. You want a message, rent "Schindler's List".
Dumb and silly and a heck of a good time. Particularly if you're anything but sober. And if you're just looking for a grindhouse sort of guilty pleasure to pass the time.
It doesn't develop the premise so much as endlessly repeat it...just hopelessly bad.
A consistently hilarious, brutal, and titillating mash-up of Return of the Living Dead and Showgirls that actually beats out Mark Pirro's Nudist Colony of the Dead for the unofficial title of best naked zombie movie ever.
