Little does Ace know he'll soon be stuck in the middle of a rampaging zombie horde! Believe me, there is has been nothing quite like this movie ever before. Guitar Wolf give him a whistle and tell him to use it if he's ever in a jam. Masashi Endo plays Ace, a major Guitar Wolf fan, who helps the band out of a tight spot with a nasty promoter. In fact I absolutely loved every minute of it! Cult Japanese trio Guitar Wolf, who deftly mix punk, rockabilly, garage and surf influences, star in this impossible to categorize fun fun fun romp which jumps genres as fast as Johnny Ramone changes bar chords. I usually like my zombie movies to be serious, but in this case I didn't mind the silliness at all. I love rock'n'roll and I love zombie movies, and 'Wild Zero' combines the two into a fantastically entertaining and energetic movie that I'm certain in years to come will be regarded as a trash classic. See if you can go through and pick them out) But if you see a Guitar Wolf movie this year-nay, if you see a movie in this lifetime, see Wild Zero! Rock 'n' roll!! (Note: Some phrases in this review were lifted from the video box. It's just more fun when you can see your friends' minds be blown. Watch this movie with friends or watch it alone. Of course, you could also sit back and be terrified by the Captain's draw-string shorts (pejoratively nicknamed "the junk trunk" by my group of friends). But don't think it is all brutality of screen, as the movie has poignant moments and an important message on love and growing up. There is no adrenaline rush that is more rush than this film once it kicks into motion. There are exploding heads, random alien encounters, and even more sudden and inexplicable gaining of superpowers. There is thrill, speed and stupid zombies. With trash and chaosssssss!!!!, the last twenty minutes will blow your mind. Guitar Wolf, the group, prove themselves to be inhuman in their sheer ability to be cool. After all, this is rock 'n' roll jet movie. You watch Wild Zero and your blood will pump, your adrenaline will ransack your brain, your tender-I have said too much. Wild Zero is the type of movie that is impossible to criticise. Weak acting? Goofy special effects? These comments are probably from people who thought Braveheart and Gladiator were good movies. If I rated things on a scale of stars, 1-10, it would receive a million billion. It has transcended into a realm of unbelievable excellence.
