The Stink of Flesh Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
xzentashi I was impressed for what this film is. Low budget zombie movie fun, with some unique twists. I had low expectations going in and was pleasantly surprised.Technically it has a spit and polish I'd expect from a higher budget. The lighting, sound, shots and makeup effects are really well done. I studied martial arts 18 years and the fight choreography isn't bad either, for what it is. Hong Kong cinema it's not but it's still pretty good. And it's not a mindless zombie flick. It actually has some depth, which I'll explain.Dexy is an excellent cast, IMO. She's full figured and while she doesn't look like what would be typically sexy, she exudes sexy psychologically. Her sexiness comes not through her looks or figure (unless you like full figured women) but through her appetite for and attitude about sex. She also exudes a caring and warmth. If you had a beautiful looking actress playing that part, the subtly would've been lost, I think. Personally, I'm a fan. I thought she was great.Ross Kelly is excellent as the brooding husband, turned on, yet disturbed by his wife's antics in the bedroom as he satisfies his own desire for flesh elsewhere.Matool is the only minority in the whole movie I think, so having a Hispanic in the lead is refreshing. Being introduced so strongly I thought his character kind of got "lost" as the movie progressed.The Stink of Flesh in an interesting title in that, the people are not that different from the zombies. Both crave flesh in a mindless, animalistic way that underlines its apocalyptic theme. Zombies aren't capable of ethics or morals and in the same situation neither are the people. All that's left is a desire for flesh and survival. You can't get much more basic in human behavior than eating and having sex and having the 2 parallel in a movie was really a fascinating twist. I just wish the story was presented better.There are some things that didn't make sense (to me anyway) and it was really one of only a few things that disappointed me. I thought some good acting and an excellent premise was wasted on the lack of cohesion in the story and plot.Zombies aren't angry. There's a sadness and emptiness that belies their behavior and zombie acting really is a unique perspective. I still look to Romero's films for the ideal zombie. I did like the idea of a "hyper - 28 Days Later" type of zombie. Zombies act through physiology and eyes... if they have eyes, so I feel the zombies could've been better, but that's being totally subjective. So the makeup effects sort of overshadows the zombie acting.There really is some disturbing stuff here that I can take or leave. Again being a little disappointed in the story I would've preferred more focus on story and characters and less peripheral stuff going on that added little to nothing to the story. But nonetheless a great effort. I really enjoyed it.
danthewrestlingmanorigin When I saw several respected horror reviewers claiming they enjoyed this more than 28 Days Later and Shaun Of The Dead, naturally my expectations went way up. Luckily for the filmmakers the hype was genuine, as this is an immensely entertaining film. The gore effects were perfectly executed, and the fight scenes were choreographed in a believable manner. If you have seen the fight scenes in another indie zombie movie called Corpses Are Forever, in which the lead misses the zombie antagonists by a mile on each punch, you can appreciate this films top notch work. The storyline is wonderfully twisted, with some bizarre sexuality, including two very close conjoined sisters, one of whom is more than a little different. The actors all come through, without one poor performance. This is a must see for indie horror fans', and any serious zombie aficionado.
Charles Atlas I just watched this film and...I liked it. I'm not going to go as far as to call it a masterpiece or anything, but it was funny, nasty and innovative. Not really a zombie film more like a wild, balls out exploitive melodrama with crazy gore and sex. One thing that DID totally stand out was the music..a crazy blend of electronic gurgles, ambient drones and industrial heavy metal that kind of reminded me of John Carpenter with a sort of spaghetti Western vibe. I found out the flick was scored by a guy named Chris Alexander (with vocals by Carrie Eliza) and was amazed to discover that this is the SAME Chris Alexander who writes for my favorite magazine , Rue Morgue (he's the Schizoid Cinephile. I did some research into the guy and found out that he's released a bunch of albums. I gotta get them. So anyway, this is a neat movie with AN AMAZING SOUNDTRACK!!! Check it out...
Argwaan All I can really say about this move is that is was OK. Nothing special, but still watchable. The zombies and gore were pretty well done, but the acting was passable for the most part, but the "story" just didn't work for me, although i liked the "forlorn", apocalyptic atmosphere..An attempt was made at being original by putting a lot of sex in the movie, but it didn't work for me (didn't mind it either).(spoiler) And what was up with the little kid? I love plot twists but this one didn't make any sense at all.. there was absolutely no reason for him to turn against everyone... I would probably have liked the movie a lot better if this was explained somewhere.BUT if you're a zombie fan like me any zombie movie is good enough and this one surely delivers on the gore, the most important part of any zombie movie.Rating: 5/10
