Bush&#8217;s fourth term as president, the administration&#8217;s desire for crises and predisposition toward fuck-ups leads to the creation of a zombie virus that the government hopes will help replenish troops for its various overseas conflicts. Infected women become super-strong and maintain their intelligence, but the men remain your typical, shambling, mindless undead. So when the virus leaks into a strip club, the place becomes the most popular illegal joint in town. All too often with horror\/cult movies, a catchy title masks a low budget and an even lower level of talent, but director Jay Lee (<em>The Slaughter<\/em>) delivers absolutely everything you could possibly hope for in a film called\u00a0<em>Zombie Strippers<\/em>, with a consistently hilarious, brutal, and titillating mash-up of\u00a0<em>Return of the Living Dead<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Showgirls<\/em>\u00a0that actually beats out Mark Pirro&#8217;s\u00a0<em>Nudist Colony of the Dead<\/em>\u00a0for the unofficial title of best naked zombie movie ever. He even manages some George Romero\u2013style social commentary, with zombie-dom as a metaphor for plastic surgery\u2014that star Jenna Jameson&#8217;s plasticized, pre-zombie face is actually scarier than the final monstrous version only proves the point.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.villagevoice.com\/film\/0816,tracking-3,411827,20.html\" target=\"_blank\">click to view article at Village Voice<\/a> ]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from the Village Voice Everything You Could Hope For in a Movie Called\u00a0Zombie Strippers Sometimes titles don&#8217;t lie by Luke Y.
