Watch The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies!!? For Free

Perfect cast and a good story

Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This movie begins with a young man named "Jerry" (Ray Dennis Steckler), his girlfriend "Angela" (Sharon Walsh) and his roommate "Harold" (Atlas King), deciding to go to the local carnival to have some fun. One thing leads to another and before long all of them decide to have their fortunes told by a Gypsy fortune-teller by the name of "Madame Estrella" (Brett O'Hara). Immediately after that Jerry decides to check out an exotic dancer named "Carmelita" (Erino Enyo) who just happens to be the sister of Madame Estrella. Needless to say, this doesn't please Angela very much and as a result Harold ends up driving her home. While all of this is going on a young dancer named "Marge Neilson" (Carolyn Brandt) who works at a nearby nightclub decides to visit Madame Estrella to have her future told. However, upon entering the tent she sees something that Madame Estrella doesn't want anybody to know about and in a complete state of panic drops her purse as she runs out as fast as she can. Needing to silence her, Madame Estrella has Carmelita bring Jerry back into the tent where the fortune teller then hypnotizes him and subsequently orders him to kill Marge. Unfortunately, it doesn't end there as all too soon Jerry becomes nothing more than a mind-numbed zombie forced to do whatever bidding Madame Estrella commands of him. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film had a decent enough plot but there were simply too many scenes involving dancing and singing thrown in to apparently fill space and kill time. Naturally, if this film was a musical then I could understand it. But since that was not the case these scenes only caused the film to lose focus and seem incoherent. Likewise, the weak acting and extremely poor ending didn't help matters either. That being said, I have to give this film a below average rating.

The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies, which I will henceforth refer to a Incredibly Strange Creatures, is about an ugly, thickly accented fortune teller who pours acid on the faces of male customers, turning them into zombies. It's also about a hoodie-clad loser named Jerry (director Ray Dennis Steckler, under the stage name Cash Flagg,) who along with his idiot best friend and his girlfriend Madison, goes to the carnival. At the carnival, they run afoul of the fortune teller, and Jerry is soon hypnotized into murdering dancers that the hag wants dead for reasons that are never explained.There are other questions that are never explained. What is the fortune teller planning to do with her collection of zombies? She keeps them locked up in a closet for most of the movie, and doesn't seem to have any control over them. And are they actually zombies? They exhibit zombie-like behaviors, like a lack of speech and a tendency to mindlessly attack anyone in sight, but they're not undead or infected with any plague. For that matter, why does pouring acid on them make them lose their minds? I've met a guy with severe burns on his face and body. He's frightening to look at, but he could still carry on an intelligent conversation, and I never got the impression that he wanted to eat me.But Incredibly Strange Creatures is not the type of movie to ponder such things. It is the type of low-budget schlock that AIP would have turned up their noses at. This movie sells itself with promises of gruesome zombies, violent murders, and scantily clad women, but never really delivers on any of these. The movie's advertising even mentions "The hunchback of the midway in a duel to the death against the mixed-up zombies", despite there being no such scene anywhere in the movie.Incredibly Strange Creatures also bills itself as the first horror monster musical. True, there are several song and dance numbers, but these are on stage in a nightclub and a cabaret, and are only watched by Jerry. Come to think of it, he wasn't actually there for some of them, which leads to the obvious conclusion that the scenes are only filler to pad the runtime. This wouldn't be too bad, except for the undeniable fact that the songs and the dancing stink, the dancer's costumes are ugly, and so are the dancers. One of them appeared to have an Adam's apple.So why was Incredibly Strange Creatures made? Because someone thought it could make money. Did it make money? Unclear, but probably not much. Is there any reason to see it? MST3K did do a fairly good job with this one, by I would highly recommend against seeing the original unless you enjoy pain.

No argument. Plan 9? Nope. Beast of Yucca Flatts? Nope. The Room? Definitely not. This is it. This is the worst movie ever made.Featuring everything from home movie quality camera work to incomprehensible dialogue to a virtually non existent and hard to follow plot, to an ear bleed inducing soundtrack, this movie is truly terrible. I really can't say that much about it because there isn't much to be said. It's just truly terrible in everything it tries to do. This is the Ghost Pepper of movies. You can try to watch it, but it will only cause pain and suffering. Funny pain and suffering, but it overall just leave you with a sense of dread and bewilderment as you wonder why you put yourself through it in the first place. Watch at your own risk and stay away from sharp objects for a few hours afterwards. You have been warned.

I could hang out at the train tracks kicking around dirty, used needles on my way to a coal mine for my Zumba session and still not feel as dirty as I did watching this movie. If you love greasy haired foreigners...this is your movie. I understand that it was made with almost no money but am I supposed to believe that they couldn't find a homeless drifter that could speak better English than the foreign friend that's clearly missed a few dozen ESL classes. This movie was made in the era of cinema where their solution for everything was to rub grease on it. Their faces are greasy. Their hair is greasy. Even the walls managed to be greasy. It was as if they filmed all the scenes in a petroleum jelly warehouse shortly after one of the vats exploded. Basically, if you're into films that make you think about life: why would you watch this after reading the title? If you're into movies that make you hate living: watch this movie (it will be your last choice on earth). It's not scary at all but it's 100% nightmare fuel. I don't get scared by movies (not bragging) but I DO get creeped out by them from time to time. Something about how 'off' everything is just makes you feel molested by the visuals. It's a cavalcade of strange characters and insanity.
