Donald Farmer’s 2006 Dorm of the Dead

You know - I watch some pretty f'ed up movies all in the name of classic B. Throw in a couple zombies and I don't care if it is the equivalent of Z - I'm gonna watch it.

Needless to say I watch a lot of shit movies.

So the one that was today's selection was Donald Farmer's Dorm of the Dead. My husband and I are convinced that we could easily go to Best Buy, purchase a hand held video camera, get a couple (or 5) of my girlfriends to run around in front of the camera topless while chewing on some ketchup packets in an attempt to mimic blood, and come up with a decidedly more impressive zombie movie than this one.

Meaning the zombies look like your neighbor dressed up for Halloween, and NOTHING like real zombies (think Quarantine or even Diary of the Dead.) In other words, the zombies of Dorm of the Dead were not at all convincing or scary.
