365 Days of Trailers Day 7

Day number 7 and I bring you a piece of Shot-on-video trash! It's Pericles Lewnes' 1989 film REDNECK ZOMBIES.


'A barrel of radioactive waste is lost out in the woods. Some demented rednecks find it and use it as part of their still. Everybody who drinks from the liquor they produced turns into a zombie.' - IMDB


Redneck Zombies will always hold a special place in my heart. First off it was the very first TROMA film that I ever bought. Secondly, it was the very first shot-on-video I had ever seen. It was raw, gory, shoddily shot, comedic, and at times disturbing (see the tobacco man scene). 


This past Halloween the film's 20th Anniversary 2-Disc set made it's way into Wal-Mart's $5 bin. Proving that even a big corporation can be infected!


Now go and let your eyes be raped by the wickedness that is REDNECK ZOMBIES!
