Summary: Why did Troma pick this movie up?
Review: Chopperchicks in Zombietown, what an awesome title eh? i really expected way more. let it be known that i am an avid troma fan and know what troma fans like. i bought this movie on a whim because the title sounded so cool, i really wish i hadnt bought it. if youre a billy bob thorton fan, dont even bother his part isnt that big. the movie was just downright boring. if you want a good troma movie get tromeo and juliet, the toxic avenger, or an out of house production like killer condom. this movie is a true disappointment and i wish i could give it no stars at all.

Summary: A Real Hoot
Review: I watched this film while living in the UK. I was a single motorcycling "chick" with a taste for horror, and I thought the film was a real hoot. It absolutely should not be taken as anything more than a spoof of the cheesy b-movie horror films, and setting the monsters to such a twee little tune was a stroke of genius. Enjoy, but don't take too seriously!

Summary: You've got to own this movie
Review: I went to a private showing of this film with Oakland's Harley Owners Group years ago at the Pizza Hut after a Berkeley theater decided to cancel the showing.

This film brings new meaning to the designation "low budget". The "Cycle Sluts" are a pack of tantalizing beauties who ride hard across the desert on shiny new hogs by day and sleep around a campfire each night. However, in every scene the girls appear as though they have just stepped out of the beauty salon.

When the biker women come across a small town and find that the dead are coming back to life,... Sound familiar? This flick doesn't try to hide the fact that it's "The Wild One" meets "Night of the Living Dead". The only way to kill a zombie is by burning it, and just before they burst into flames, the zombies turn to motionless manikins. The plot and the actors get dumber by the minute.

You've got to own this movie. Only one thing -- just don't want to watch it sober.

Summary: Chopper Chick in zombie town
Review: Most Troma films are infamous for being badly made and corny and very gross. But surprisingly this film was slightly better. It stars a few known faces and in particular Ed Gale (who portrayed Chucky in some secenes in the 'Child's Play' movies) a gun-totting dwarf! Bizarre, funny and unique. You may be pleasently surprised.

Summary: Great spoof of 50s/60s chick biker flicks!
Review: This film has EVERYTHING a good b-movie needs to be a Good b-movie!, el cheapo effects, horrible actors/actresses, Horrible singing, and hot chicks on bikes! given this is Billy Bob Thorton's first endeavor,, he won't win any awards here, but he does o.k.
This film is for those who remember USA's Up All Night with Rhonda Shear!!!!! thats where I saw this Many years ago!
It is also for those who remember the 50's/60's biker movies! And for lovers of cheesy Troma films.
Cheesy acting, horrible but Funny zombies make this a cult classick!
Don't expect a "Night of the living Dead" style zombie flick, this film was made to make ya laugh! At least give it a rent If not interested in buying, otherwise Buy it! its a GREAT one to own and laugh at over, and over again!

Summary: Zombietown, Indeed.
Review: Well, at least the title is right. The Chopper Chicks come to Zombietown, and...well, that's about it. I loves me some Troma, so I figured "CC in ZT" would at least entertain me for 90 minutes, but nope. This one's a stinker.

Apparently "CC" wants to be a parody. We can tell it's a comedy by the goofy, Candyland-style music that plays when the zombies attack. But what is it a parody of, exactly? Itself? The filmmakers provided themselves with mad scientists, lesbian bikers, midgets, blind kids, and zombies...but they forgot the screenplay. Billy Bob and Martha Quinn should provide some entertainment, right? Well, Martha tries, but Billy Bob is just dull. Don Calfa is in it...he's usually good for a larf or two, right? Nope. The flick is boring, slow-paced, dimwitted, and boring. But hey - you take your chances with Troma, right?

Summary: So bad it's ..... still pretty bad
Review: When the zombie motif has already been self-parodied with such class and black humour as Romero's Dawn of the Dead and Peter Jackson's hilarious Braindead, any movie trying to follow in those famous footsteps has to be pretty special. And special, Chopper Chicks in Zombietown ain't.

Ok, it's got a few inspired moments - I liked the ice-cream van chiming out "Dance Macabre", the zombie transfixed by the CCTV was amusing, and the Uzi weilding kid bemoaning the zombie attack on their school bus by grumbling "what rotten luck - going blind, being orphaned and now THIS!" has to be the best line by far in the movie. The townsfolk are reasonably well observed 1950's B-movie caricatures, and the choice of weaponry by the chicks in the final showdown with the zombies was quite amusing.

The overall impression however is dull, tedious and lacking the usual Troma gross-out but stylish trademark. Even at only 83 minutes, it feels overlong and the absence of any outtakes or any other bonus material on the DVD makes poor value for money.

I got my copy for just £3-99 in a high street clear-out sale. With a total of three half-chuckles throughout the movie, I don't feel like I got a bargain.
