House of the Dead is based on a video game of the same name. It involves six attractive, romantically entangled Seattle teenagers, who hire a boat owned by Captain Victor Kirk (Jurgen Prochnow) to take them to an island rave.
The island has a legend they do not heed; an evil, immortal Spaniard has been conducting experiments with the undead there for centuries, countless numbers of zombies are already poised for an attack on the invading ravers. When they land, most people at the party has already been killed and joined the ranks of the living dead. Luckily the Captain is also an arms smuggler and soon the dwindling survivors are geared up with weapons, shooting their way through the hordes in video-game style.
I was expecting a good movie, but how let down I was! House of the Dead is like a very budget movie, the zombies look like people in costumes, the acting belongs in a very budget movie, and the only thing it was in common with Dawn of the Dead is there are zombies in it! Terrible!
I collect DVDs, we have over 3,000 titles in the house now! I buy most from Car Boot Sales,Poundshops, markets, sales, and greatly reduced from the internet, but I only buy what I want to watch! I do a short report when I watch them, I got rid of almost 800 titles at Christmas 2010 (low score, duplicates, ones I'd never watch etc.) I continue to wade through them, and appear to be buying slightly less, but still watching like mad :)
