Kevin Hamedani's muddy, heavy-handed parody of War on Terror paranoia doesn't vary much from genre formula, but it does serve up political correctness with refreshingly bad taste.
Zombies of Mass Destruction attempts to use its familiar genre elements in the service of a post-9/11 political satire...unfortunately, the jokes fall flat, and the horror never hits a nerve.
Certainly not on the scale of a Romero, but at least these filmmakers paid some attention in zombie class.
Has the potential to become a minor hit on the midnight film circuit with the help of a mid-level indie distributor.
