Come
Get
Some
More
|
I reviewed the movie Come Get Some
a couple of years ago and I loved it. I had heard that writer
& actor Steven A. Grainger was working on the sequel at the time,
but there was no estimate on when it would be released.
Well, it's finally finished! I just had an opportunity to check
out a screener of Come Get Some More; the black and white, low
budget flick by Fatal Susi
Productions, and it is
great! Grainger wrote, directed and stars in this very cool sequel
which features more action, more skin, more fight scenes and more
craziness. In addition to more of what we saw in the original Come
Get Some, they also threw in some actors with big names in independent
film world such as Lloyd Kaufman (of Troma Entertainment), Debbie Rochon,
Lilith Stabs and April Wade. There are also several actors who
appear to have a good amount of martial arts experience, so in addition
to all of the standard zombie slaying in the first film, Come Get
Some More is full of zombie karate fighting!

The story is a continuation of the first film and again follows a
bumbling zombie-killing ex- government agent who teams up with several ass
kicking chicks to once again take out zombies. I don't know that
the focus of Come Get Some More is as much on hot chicks in cool
costumes this time as finding people who really could fight, so the
emphasis has shifted somewhat, but if you like a good fight scene,
there's plenty of them here. The intro scene is awesome; even
better than the one in Come Get Some. There is humor
in Come Get Some More, but not quite as much as in the first
film. Although the new film does have a scene with a zombie chick
biting off a guy's dick. That's just funny every time! The
characters didn't have as much personality in the sequel as in the first
film and that is really the main element that I feel isn't as
strong. The soundtrack is provided mostly by three bands; The Jack
Saints, Like No Tomorrow and Fat Tortoise Butcher. With a combined
contribution of almost 20 songs, there's plenty of low budget punk and
metal to go with this low budget zombie flick.
Hopefully Come Get
Some More will fare better with distribution than Come Get Some
(which apparently suffered from numerous distribution problems) and
hopefully the new film will increase awareness of the original
too. If you like movies
with zombies, naked chicks, karate and punk & metal music, check out
Come Get Some More!
