Hell of the Living Dead

Please choose a format above.

Our new release sounds like something an angry dad would yell downstairs at a rowdy middle school sleepover. “What in the Hell of the Living Dead are you kids doing down there??”

Hopefully they’re not transforming into flesh-eating zombies after a bizarre factory accident like in the movie, but you never know with kids these days.

Hell of the Living Dead is an Italian zombie movie, so you know you’re in for lots of cheesy gore, sexy ladies, confusing stereotypes, and a score by the band Goblin. (Actually, we hear this movie borrowed most of its score from Dawn of the Dead, but that’s Goblin’s business, not ours). After a rat-based chemical mishap at something called a Hope Center, people start turning all zombified and chowing down on human types. It’s a failure of an ecological program called “Operation Sweet Death.” Man, who could’ve guessed something bad might happen with “Operation Sweet Death”?

From there, we follow an elite squad of commando jerks as they face off against some random terrorists who are decidedly NOT zombies. Then they’re off to the jungle which, thankfully, is totally PACKED with zombies. The commandos work their way through some problematic tribal zombie situations, and naturally a woman spends an entire scene topless for no good reason. It’s an Italian zombie movie, that’s just how it works!

Step into your nearest Hope Center (they’re part of Operation Sweet Death, nothing to worry about) and breathe in Hell of the Living Dead’s delicious zombie gas with Mike, Kevin and Bill!
