Trivia:
The title was originally going to be The Incredibly Strange Creature: Or Why I stopped Living and Became a Mixed-up Zombie, but Columbia Pictures threatened writer/director/star Ray Dennis Steckler with a massive lawsuit, thinking that the title was too similar to their upcoming Stanley Kubrick film, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). Steckler was amazed that Columbia would feel so threatened by his little $38,000 film. He phoned the studio to straighten things out, but couldn't make any progress until he demanded that Kubrick get on the line. Then Steckler simply suggested the new title - Kubrick accepted, and the whole thing was dropped.

Hey, where's your sense of humor, folks?, 12 June 2000

I admit I first saw this on MST3K, and in that venue it was almost
brilliant
- no skit on the original Saturday Nite Live ever topped it. The awful
make-up, the comically inept sidekick (wild & crazy guys come to life!),
the
riotous night club dancers, the super-cheesy zombies...It's hard to believe
this movie was so deliberately inept without having some other (admittedly
pretty subtle) agenda of humor. And, as someone has pointed out, the
cinematography is pretty damn good. Well, however it came about, it's still
a very watchable movie. Hey, have you sat through Con Air or The Rock (both
with a lead who looks a lot like Cash Flagg to me).
