Rising Dead is brought to you by Hawaiian Filmmakers The Cousins Brothers. Don't expect Slaughter Day, this is not Slaughter Day. Oh is it not. Slaughter Day was shot on VHS nonsense that you could tell their energy failed towards the end. Rising Dead is a bit more polished. A polished turd. Still has nonsense like Slaughter Day, just better production quality and uses run down rural Hawaii as a backdrop. The random broadsword adds to the nonsense. Almost literally pulled out of his ass. Who leaves a perfectly good sword laying around in a former sugar plant? The Cousins. I want to say don't watch it. It isn't a movie like that at all. I recommend it due to the quant nature of the filmmaking and the instant production value shooting on Hawaii for free. Don't expect their magnum opus (Slaughter Day), do expect a functional zombie flick that's at least better than Zombi 3.
