This film is about a group of street pharmacists, AKA drug dealers. They've decided that they want more out of life. They want the American Dream. They want to rob the nation's richest bank. By the way, this bank is located in a rural town in South Florida where the cops walk around all day due to the lack of excitement.
Anyway, the group goes to their supplier for guns. After arranging a deal of cash for guns, the plan is put into motion. The group and the dealer's bodyguard head to Maysville, FL. I dunno if it's a real town or not, but it's depicted as being very small.
The bodyguard takes a stroll through the town checking things out. He meets the owner of a Army/Navy type store. This is where we hear about the mutants that come out once a month. That's right, once a month. AND, they migrate south. AND, they burrow underground. AND, they crave human blood. They sound like a cross between vampires and gophers. But no, they're zombies. Sorta.
After the bank robbery goes wrong, the group and some of the hostages are trapped in the bank. The gophers...vampires...I uh I mean zombies are outside. This is where we learn that shooting them in the heart is the only way to kill them. I know that this is only a movie, and in movies you can do whatever you want. But, I'm sorry, it's pretty much a rule that zombies can only be killed by destroying the brain.
The director must have told the actors to ad-lib their lines. That may have been the best part of the whole movie. The dialogue between the characters seemed real. It didn't seem fake or forced. That and the actor that played the body guard, D.J. Naylor. I think he could be a big time action star. I tried finding his bio online, but all I could find was that he worked in transportation in two other movies before this one.
On a scale of 1 to 10, this one gets a 4. Naylor and the ad-libbing brought this rating up. By the way, Bone Crusher only makes a cameo. Despite what the promo poster shows, he's only in the movie for a minute or two.
