Synopsis: A small town strip club owner must defend her bar; her strippers and her life when violent infected patron’s show up on the final closing night and all hell breaks loose.
Oh my goodness, where do I begin?
Peelers, much in the vein of Zombie Strippers, is a horror-comedy that really goes and pushes hard for an R rating. Its gooey, it’s gory, it’s crude and it pushes these aspects throughout the running time constantly.
To that extent, I was equally grossed out one moment and laughing the next, constantly surprised that the film went to such a lengths for shocks and comedic effect.
Writer Lisa DeVita and director Seve Schelenz seem to be on board with one another as to what the tone of Peelers should be, because as much as it is a horror comedy, it never loses sight of the balance throughout.

*full disclosure: an online screener of this film was provided by Uncork'd Entertainment. Director: Sevé Schelenz. Writers: Lisa DeVita and Sevé Schelenz. Cast: Wren Walker, Caz Odin Darko, Madison J. Loos, Cameron Dent and Al Dales. Movie reviews can serve various functions. Sometimes, they can help get more seats filled at the movie theatres. Sometimes, they can save people a bit of time. In the case of Peelers, they can serve as a warning; do not see this film! Unfortunately, the screenplay, from first time screenwriter Lisa Devita, is mostly a miss as one might expect. As well, a portion of the cast are also just as inexperienced. Thus, Peelers misses a lot of its marks, especially in the character and plot department areas. The music, from composer Vincent Mai, which will be discussed first, is often on point. However, almost every other filmmaking element is a swing and a miss.

Last night I watched a movie that was so rotten, that not only was I not able to write a review for it, but I felt like a needed a palette cleanser. So when I received the trailer for Peelers I thought to myself “Hmmm, a zombie horror comedy set in a strip club… Sooooo, Boobies? Okay I’m in lets have a look.” Holy crap, was this the palette cleanser I needed!
The official synopsis:
What starts out as the last hurrah on the closing night of an infamous small-town strip club, quickly turns into a night of bloodshed when a crew of coal miners shows up and with them,...

This film fan had no idea that there was a stripper horror sub-genre. But, Sevé Schelenz (Skew) bills Peelers as just such a film. This film also offers infected coal miners and a whole host of bloodshed. The film will have its World Premiere at the Palm Beach International Film Festival. And, the film stars: Wren Walker, Caz Odin Darko and Madison J. Loos. The film's official trailer and artwork is hosted here. The film's synopsis begins in a small town strip club. Here, contaminated coal miners enter this seedy locale. The bar owner is less than pleased and the patrons are recruited to fight back against this undead menace. The trailer for Peelers shows more of the film's terror. Action packed, the clip shows chainsaws, bikers and blackened zombie faces. Fans of indie horror are encouraged to take a look at Schlenz's latest, below. Release Date: April 2016 (World Premiere,...
