Summary: An underrated cult gem on DVD!!!
Review: This is the story of two L.A. detectives Roger Mortis ( Treat Williams) and Doug Bigelow ( Joe Piscopo) who are solving crimes caused by undead criminals caused by a mysterious medical company that has a machine that resurrects the dead into zombies. Roger unfotunately gets killed, but he gets brought back to life but only for 13 hours before he can decompose into dust, he must solve his own homicide and find the mastermind behind it.
A highly entertaining, gory and funny mixture of sci-fi, horror, action, buddy cop and comedy with great make-up and monster effects by Steve Johnson, Vincient Price and Darren Mcgavin ( A Christmas Story) co-star as the bad guys who own the medical company. There is also plenty of action, witty humor, a memorable Chinese butcher shop scene involving undead meat, gore, and a nice twist in the end. This DVD offers excellent picture and sound quality all thanks to Anchor Bay's Divamax, great extras such as deleted scenes ( Scenes that had to avoid the X rating when this movie came out in 1988), Commentary by the director and writer, Poster-and-still gallery, Original storyboard art, MIFED promo, Widescreen, theatrical trailer.
I recommend this movie to fans of zombie movies, action flicks and horror comedies.

Confidential", " The Stuff", " Burial Ground", " Day of the Dead", " Re-Animator", " Return of the Living Dead", " From Dusk Till Dawn", " Lethal Weapon", " Robocop", " Die Hard", " Nightmare City", " Hell of the Living Dead", " Dawn of the Dead", " Blade 1 & 2", " Vampire Hunter D", " Bio Zombie", " Return of the Living Dead 3", " Freddy Vs.

Summary: A action horror movie with lots of action and jokes!
Review: This turkey movie star Treat Williams(Deep End of The Ocean) as a cop who gets killed and is brought back to life.This a buddy moive much like the "Lethal Weapon" movies, but it does not take itself too seriously.It not too scary and I would even think that by today's standards t would rated PG-13! If you like a turkey movie once in a while buy this one! Plus it does not cost as much as the other videos they have here! Face it guys,this video is bargain! Now go buy it and have some laughs while you watch it! Also starring is Vincent Price as the villian trying to take over the world!
