User Review - 6/10 by Gordon TA rather nifty kiwi sci-fi/horror that manages to be both intense and grotesquely atmospheric when it needs to whilst also being some mindless, off-kilter entertainment for a rainy afternoon. Don't get me wrong, it isn't great (in fact it's quite awful in places, especially with all the 'homages' that are packed into it's 80-minute running time), but it's a big part of our country's film-making history, whether we like it or not.
User Review - 6/10 by I have Riboflavin flavored bloodit's an alright film. some dude is manipulated by a mad scientist to kill is parents...after seven years in a loony bin, he gets out, sees the scientist and decides that he wants to kill him...oh, and the scientist experimented on others, too, which turned them into murderous zombies. it's nothing great, but it's not too shabby, either. overall, it's an average film with average entertainment.
User Review - 6/10 by Fabien DUne grosse bisserie sans queue ni tête avec des gros moments de bravoure nawak dedans ! Genial, donc ! :D
User Review - 4/10 by William WEver go to one of those all-you-can-eat buffets that has virtually every kind of food imaginable, and you go in thinking it's going to be an excellent experience, a few of the foods you sample are fairly good, but you're left afterwards with a huge bellyache and the check? That's the way I felt after watching 'Death Warmed Up', from my now-infamous Mill Creek 50-film 'Nightmare Worlds' pack--it has a few interesting ideas, and some decent, though dated, atmosphere, but director Blyth doesn't know how to put it all together. In the right hands, this could have worked, but it definitely doesn't, and that's a shame, because it had potential...'it coulda been a contender!' The two young female leads that play Sandy and Jeannie are beautiful, there's good chemistry between them and the two male leads, particularly in the scene where they're on the ferry going to the island. The completely gratuitous nudity and softcore sex was a great bonus. In an interview that was a DVD extra for 'The Fog', Jamie Lee Curtis explained that she enjoyed starting out in horror and that it was a useful genre for an actor in that it gave one a wide range of possible behaviours to both utilize and show, and, by the end, Michael and Sandy proved to me they were good actors. It's just too bad they were in a nondescript, clunky script that had no idea what it was doing or where it was going. 'Death Warmed Up' is one of those films that doesn't have a climactic finale, or end, per se, it just simply stops or dies, as if the filmmakers simply had no ideas left and simply stopped when they ran out of film. THIS is the type of film that should be remade, not the wildly successful and great film that has no need to have a different interpretation or chance at life, but the misfires or the should-have-beens--to show the world that these ideas had validity and meaning after all.
User Review - 4/10 by Michael TViolent, dark (as in photography), and often confusing.
User Review - 4/10 by Trent RDeath Warmed Up is a bit of Outback Exploitation, albeit with none of the fun or charm of other Ozzie Exploits like Turkey Shoot or Razorback. The story is about a mad doctor who hypnotizes the son (Michael Hurst) of the parents that stand in his way of his diabolical brain surgeries. The kid violently kills his parents and is institutionalized in an asylum (yeah right) for a messily 7 years (yeah right) until being friend and taking his hot friends with him to the island where the mad doctor resides and performs brain surgeries on the loonies. Once they get there, they are hunted and attacked by one of the crazed inhabitants (whose acting is so over the top and unbearably annoying) who unleashes some mutated behemoth loonies that go insane and start taking over the island. There's an overlong buildup in the first 40 minutes that causes the last 40 minutes (the more entertaining part of the film) to speed through without barely any development, thus causing the best parts of the film to suck essentially. The film also ends at such a bad point, I found myself quite mad with the end result, which I wasn't expecting, given how this film had received such glowing reviews upon its release in 1985. Ultimately, Death Warmed Up had great potential to be an excellent film, but fell very short of my expectations.
User Review - 2/10 by Greg SFour obnoxious Kiwi twenty-somethings vacation on Insane Asylum Island, where a mad neurosurgeon is creating zombies with exploding brains. You spend the whole movie rooting for the monsters to get revenge on the heroes after the protagonists urinate on the side of a zombie's van and refuse to apologize.
