Welcome
to the quiet (OK, maybe not so quiet) town of Dillford where
vampires, humans and zombies all co-exist and live together. As the
vampires are at the top of the food chain, zombies are at the bottom
and humans somewhere in between the two, but all of that soon comes
to an screeching end when an aliens invasion begins and turns it into
a vampire, human, zombie and alien free-for-all. Their only hope
lies with 3 kids, one human, one vampire, and one zombie to set aside
their differences and work together to stop the invasion in Robbie
Pickering's Freaks
Of Nature
(2015).
Dug and his friends, Petro, a recently turned vampire
girl and Ned, a recently turned zombie boy are the survivors of
vampire, human, zombie and alien apocalypse. They must set aside
their natural instincts to work together to defeat the aliens. Dug
resists his urge to have masturbate and have sex with girls, Petro
resists drinking their blood, and Ned resists eating their brains.
Fortunately, they stumble on the alien's one weakness, they can only
see inorganic matter... in other words they are invisible to the
aliens if they don't wear clothes, so the fate of the world depends
on 3 naked beings, one human and 2 undead.
This was no
Twilight
or Warm
Bodies,
but this film is at least worth watching for a laugh. It is about
the 3 high school's biggest losers working to save the world (and
their love lives, questionably) between the vampire, humans and
zombies. It made fun of all the vampire, human and zombie
stereotypes. Denis Leary, Bob Odenkirk, Joan Cusack, Vanessa
Hudgens, Pat Healy, Mae Whitman and Patton Oswalt star.
The
1080p 2.35 X 1 digital High definition image and lossless DTS-HD MA
(Master Audio) 5.1 mix are disappointing with weak playback and
uneven presentation throughout, likely by design but not good.
Extras include gag reel, deleted scenes, and alternate opening.
