Film: Dead and Breakfast
Director: Matthew Leutwyler ("Creepshow 4")

Released in 2004, Dead and Breakfast is a hillarious zombie/gore film with a hint of old western storytellin'. The story of six friends on a road trip takes a dreadful turn when they discover they are lost because the driver has been counting road kill so he can pray for them individually. They stop in the town of Lovelock where they stumble upon our backwoods musical narrator(Zach Selwyn). They find their way to a bed and breakfast occupied by a sassy frenchman and a buddhist monk(David Carradine). The monk guards a box containing an evil spirit which is released accidentally and begins progressively posessing each member of this quiet little community. Intermittantly throughout the film the narrator offers omniscient insight to the story via whitty country ditties, and zombie jokes.
The makeup and gore are great, the script is awesome, the casting and acting styles were entirely appropriate, and the soundtrack is definately something to have on your shelf right next to the movie. Its hillarious, with great acting and gore with a badass soundtrack. Overall for its genre, i give Dead and Breakfast 5 blood drops.
