"YOU'LL ALL BE DAMNED!!"

My God this looks so bad and I'm getting so tired of the 1st act horror movie set up boredom but I'll be damned if I don't probably watch this. With the current dearth of decent horror films, who am I to turn my nose up at a nice creature feature?

I really thought Zombie Strippers was going to be the nadir. But no.

I am so disappointed that this isn't set in Ontario cottage country.
Because, really. Zombie beavers. Could you have more Canadian horror? Okay, a tuque that's possessed by a demon, maybe. Or something about Troy Hurtubise turning himself into a mad cyborg who's more machine than man... but 100% hoser.
ALSO FREE GRATIS HERE IS MY IDEA FOR A CANADIAN REALITY SHOW:
It's like Restaurant Screaming Festival, but what happens is a Canadian restaurant requests help, a Canadian guy shows up and looks around, then he offer respectful suggestions and the owners thank him and implement them.

Dearth of good horror films? No way, man! We're entering a new golden age of horror. For stuff that's come out in the past three years that's amazing, try:
Dead Snow (Nazi zombies in Norway)
Dead Snow 2: Red Vs. Dead (The Army of Darkness to the first one's Evil Dead)
Witching & Bitching (gonzo heist/witch movie)
American Mary (plastic surgery/body mod horror)
Maniac (Elijah Wood in an entirely first-person slasher movie)
Rigor Mortis (chinese hopping vampires)
Honeymoon (strange goings-on in the woods disrupt a couple's honeymoon)
The Hills Run Red (nice mind-bending meta horror)
Afflicted (actually good found footage)
The Sacrament (utopian cult isn't what it seems)
Cheap Thrills (black-as-night comedy about what you'd do for money)
Oculus (haunted mirror)
Stalled (man fights zombies in a single men's restroom)
ABCs of Death 2 (never mind the first one, this is way better)
You're Next (home invasion with a twist)
Tl;dr There are a ton of great horror movies out right now, with more on the way in November (The Babadook, The Guest, V/H/S Viral).

Thank you skullhead! I haven't seen some of those and will use your list to fuel my next horror watches!
Intrigued by Witching & Bitching and The Hills Run Red in particular.
I loved The Sacrament, Oculus, and You're Next of the 7 you listed that I've seen.

Being way better than the first does not really tell me that the sequel is good. The first was abysmal.

Actually, I'm sort of down for this. It's been too long since there's been a "bunch of little evil things" horror film.

Oh yes the end of the trailer hints at the inevitable beaver-woman-zombie mutation scene!

I just watched this and was pleasantly surprised. Sure it's puerile like most horror-comedies but there were two saving graces, the unconventional "final girl" and the "whack-a-mole" scene. I would rate it just a little bit above your typical SyFy movie with a little bit of Troma silliness. Also a couple of surprising cameos in the beginning.
