Review of Dead Heat

Dead Heat (1988)
3/10
A very bad movie with two brilliant scenes.
13 March 2006
This is a pretty terrible movie, but it's a must-see for two wonderful scenes.

Joe Piscopo almost single-handedly ruins the film with his annoying non-acting and his unfunny comedy. It's like he never got the memo that he was in a movie, not another SNL sketch. And it's sad to see Treat Wiliiams, a talented actor, in what must be the low point of his career.

However, there are two scenes in the film that make it worth your time. One, when the meat in a butcher's shop comes to life, and another when two nearly indestructible zombies square off for a shootout, only they're standing about ten feet apart and using automatic weapons. Hilarious.
