Toxic Zombies is a rather cheesy film made in a rural area of Pennsylvania, and this is a good place to grow pot? Well, maybe, I don't think of that area of the country as a hotbed of that sort of activity. At any rate, the Feds zone in on a bunch of harvesters ready to pick their crop and get out of town fast, especially after they killed a couple other Feds. But, a lunatic government agent (are there any other kind?) decides to spray the area with an unproven toxin to kill the pot & oh, and if it makes the pot growers sick, who will care? Of course, after the initial dusting, the harvesters are puking blood & not feeling too well, but not long afterward they begin to change into...wait for it....zombies.

Now, these are not your usual George Romero zombies, they don't pounce on a victim and rip out entrails and gnaw lustily on shin-bones, they just take a bite, and then let blood run out of their mouths as they wander off to do something else. Maybe they're just stoned. Anyway, I did kind of like the close-up shot of one victim with red lines painted on their body and perhaps plastic (or dead) flies lined up, with the buzzing sound dubbed in, now THAT was class.

This isn't God-awful terrible, but it's just not a very exciting film. The idea isn't bad, the locations aren't bad, but the actors are wooden & the whole execution of the thing leaves plenty to be desired. I do like cheesy movies but they need more life in them than THIS. 4 out of 10.
