      If the mysterious plague sweeping the nation wasn't bad enough, Dean is still going ahead with his doomed wedding tomorrow morning. That leaves him with a choice. Pick up the button holes and chocolate fountain as instructed by bridezilla Elaine, or go with five mates (and a stripper) to play 'Zomball' at a top secret military compound where you get to shoot zombies with huge stun guns. Disobeying the golden rule of Zomball ('never never humiliate a zombie') the stags face overwhelming odds from the massed undead and each stag is hunted down. The truth about Zomball is finally revealed and suddenly the mother-in-law is the least of Dean's problems....

How many DTV zombie films are out there these days? There's must be thousands, all running the spectrum from really good (Apocalypse of the Dead) to the awful (Tokyo Zombie) - meaning that viewers will have to do their homework before even buying a modern zombie film. This one, a zombie comedy, is good enough to warrant one viewing at least, as it low budget really shows, but you've got to acknowledge the effort made. And it did actually make me laugh once or twice.

Five guys and a stripper are out for a stag do when they head off to an army barracks to indulge in a bit of Zomball, which is like paintball only with zombies and stun guns. You've got your innocent groom, best man and fanny rat, tourette's suffering other guy, and a few others. Looks like not all is as it seems at the barracks as anybody who gets munched by the zombies just gets added to the zombie army, or something. It's best not to think about who does what in a film like this.

As you might expect, the zombies get let loose and start chowing down on soldiers and stag party alike. It's a zombie film so I shouldn't need to get down to the plot, eh? You've got talking zombies (which actually kind of works here), bits of gore, bits of humour and not bad characterisation (plus a couple of twists) - We ain't looking for Ingmar Bergman in a zombie film, just good action, gore, and maybe scares. Stag Night of the Dead falls kind of into the 'good' category for me.
