This is the best film of all time, kinda

No one can say with absolute certainty why the powers that be gave man the ability to think creatively, and that reason was probably not Zombie Doom. While the movie generally is enjoyed by those who watch it, artistic genius is not among the reasons for its success. Written and filmed in 2003 by an under funded German film crew, Zombie Doom pushes the limits of human tolerance for scenes depicting disembowelment, decapitation, and ninjas.

The film begins innocently with three friends casually sailing on a nameless sea, where they happen across a nameless island, the serenity, however, wouldn't last long. About 5 minutes and 163 curse words later, the crew is ambushed by a horde of sword carrying tribesmen whose trademark is a cardboard mask covered in aluminum foil. Their leader is known simple as, "The Meister" (The Meister deviates from the cardboard mask tradition and opts for a more stylish horned paint can with holes for the eyes). The Meister leads his horde of men in a quest to…kill people who arrive on the island? Unfortunately the Meister is a mysterious man, so mysterious in fact that he wouldn't even tell the writer of this masterpiece what his goals were. After another 30 minutes the plot not only seamlessly integrates three ninjas who literally descend from trees, but also eliminates the original main characters from the film. The movie carries on with zombies popping up every now and then, only long enough to have their faces literally punched in by the three ninjas. As Zombie Doom came to a close the Meister fell victim to an unknown disease and is succeeded by a lesser minion with an obtusely hairy gut accented by his rather dashing rabbit skin loin cloth (note sarcasm). The new Meister attempts to thwart the enemy ninjas, but is overtaken by the ninja's acquisition of a bazooka.
