Parade of the Dead (2010 Video) User Reviews

It's all love, and it's all right

I first had heard of Hilltop Hoods back in 2007. Their style was a breath of fresh air in a room full of vomit. I feel they have a distinct style and respect for the game. They never cease to please the fans with everything they do because their focus is on the people with head phones sitting at home, the people with the 12' subs cruisin' all slow, and the mother f'in people in the front row.

This film pays homage to a genre that has had quite a cult following since it's birth and is a great crossover film with a live concert by the group. The gore is "b" status but that is the point. This film is a joke and shout out to all the unique people of the world with eccentric taste buds. Don't go into this with any expectations, you don't know what you are in for. This is a whole new way to watch a concert.

Hilltop fans and anyone with a sense of humor and taste for zombie flesh will most likely have fun watching this. Just remember it is not meant to be taken serious. I enjoyed it far more than just a concert or plain old zombie flick. Do yourself a favor and just grab this movie,some brews, and buds, and roll up a Rizzla.

7.5/10

Zombie Movie?

[blubanshee · 1/10 · 20 January 2024]

I am a big fan of Zombie movies and when I came across "Parade Of The Dead. It had over a 5 star rating. I was exited because its hard to find Zombie movies that are good and I haven't seen them yet. It didn't take very long to realize the ratings have been fluffed. This is basically a Hip Hop movie about a band from Australia. There is very little to do with Zombies. Its not funny and in my opinion the music is awful. If you fast forward through the hip hop performances and interviews with the band. You might find 15 minutes worth of weak Zombie footage. Whoever helped fluff the ratings on this movie should be ashamed of themselves. The story line meets nothing of what the plot shows! Its bad from start to finish. Do yourself a favor and just re-watch "Return Of The Living Dead" That's what I ended up doing.......lol.

Without scenario...

A film where no one thought about hiring a scenarist... The music is also quite bad, bad amateur hip-hop... Well, a movie to avoid if you don't want to die, from boredom... It's difficult to even write 10 lines about this piece of atrocity. There is no aesthetic neither, the actor seems to never be able to forget that there are in front of a camera. To speak about the music, it take more than half of the movie, showing a live concert and idiot interview of very self-centered "artist" listening them-self talking. The special effect are also very bad and unrealistic, the zombies look like drunk teenagers for Halloween night.

It's a movie you will regret to watch, if like me you make the mistake to think that the two first minutes looks like fun.

Oh dear God...

Of course I had never heard about this 2010 movie titled "Parade of the Dead". But I figured that it was a horror movie of sorts, and since the synopsis stated that there were zombies in it, of course I opted to watch it. I do love all things zombie, after all.

And I managed a staggering 11 minutes of this dumpster fire from writers Richard Coburn, Scott Dooley and Matt Lambert. By then the second hip hop song and show started on the screen, and I just gave up. This was not entertainment in my book.

I have absolutely no interest in giving "Parade of the Dead" a second chance, because this was absolute rubbish.

My rating of director Richard Coburn's 2010 "Parade of the Dead" lands on a very generous one out of ten stars.

Awesome

The Hill-top hoods release a zombie flick, primarily as a premise for a live concert from their double platinum, number 1 reaching album 'State of the Art' In which humorous zombie clips are used to space out the epic live performance of great Hip-hop coming from Australia's 'Golden Era' squad.

Filmed in an abandoned Gaol in SA, Australia makes for a great set for a film of such a nature yet also as a place to film their live concert.

If your a hip hop fan, a zombie-flick fan (a Shaun of the dead lover??) or just want some good music combined with great inginuity and fun. Buy and watch this DVD.

Awesome

RE review from lillith-13 , Not sure you get the point of this film ,and as far as "amateur" hip hop you truly show your colours , you must know so little about hip hop you've proved you review useless. Hilltop hoods have constantly delivered quality hip hop , with a positive message as well as supporting Eminem in Canada . Australian hip hop in my opinion is some of the best in the world and this film is a great for the fans who normally only listen to the music . Check out Hilltop Hoods new album out 9/3?2012 I hope you find this useful, I felt the film deserved a decent review

Peace,
