I haven't finished watching this movie, but WOW, it's 250% cheese- maybe more! What would bad movie makers do without the Scifi Channel?
I saw both this and Rave to the grave on Sci-fi. Man these were some cheese.

Most of all I hate dancing then work, exercise, people,stupid people
I thought Necropolis wasn't too bad. I was a bit bored until the second hour when the brain munching kicked in. Decent little zombie flick.
I started watching Rave To The Grave but ended up going to bed instead. I got to the part where the one zombie guy scratched the blonde chick's shoulder. At that point I needed toothpicks just to keep my eeyes open. I'm sure that scratch played into some zombie goodness but oh well. I'll wait and buy both on DVD. They seem to be worth the cash.
One thing that I found really annoying was the overuse of the word "brains" uttered by every freakin zombie that got a close up (or so it seemed). Apparently it must have been thought that this word is what made the originals good.
God, these sequels are an insult to the series along with part 2. They don't even deserve to carry the ROTLD title. They couldn't even get the continuity of the series correct in Part 4 & 5. In the first three, the zombies were damn near indestructible that could really only be killed with either electricty or burning them to nothing. Yet, in Part 4 & 5 the zombies are killed with headshots!!!
Necropolis: TERRIBLE
Rave to the Grave: GOOD NIGHT...I'LL SEE YOU IN MORNING
Well...they're just as ridiculous as the indistructable zombies the first 2 films had.
Wow, what stinker. It could never pick a tone and stick to it, one minute its trying to be a horror flick, next its a send up of action movies, another its just plain stupid and of course failing at most, save the stupid it hit the jackpot there.
In that movie my pain had a name: and it was Cain. He was the lame-ass wana-be homie DJ, oh the horror, the horror. Every time he was infecting the screen with his appearance I couldn't help but think of Wesley Snipes' line from Passenger 57:
"If you were me WHAT WOULD YOU DO?"
John Cutter: "Kill Myself!"
Then there were the two painfully unfunny 'comic relief' hit-men in the standard issue Pulp Fiction garb. For all I know they could be the Martin & Lewis of the Carpathians, though more likely the Sammy Petrillo and Duke Mitchell of the East. Gee, Mr. Tarentino, what were you thinking in casting Samuel L. and Travolta when you could have had Sorin Cocis and George Dumitrescu? Ugh!
And what the hell was the end bit with the zombie trying to hitch a ride? Comedy so bad it makes one think Oscar Wilde died in vain!
I am off to movie rehab, time to put on a good movie to wash away the taste of that one.
