The 2017 movie "Cabaret of the Dead" (aka "Fetish Factory") is labeled as being a horror comedy. Well, that might be debatable.

I didn't really know what I was getting myself into when I sat down to watch this movie. Sure, I had read the synopsis, and a movie with zombies is always something that I will sit down to watch.

Well, I endured 40 minutes of the ordeal that is known as "Fetish Factory" at the hand of director Staci Layne Wilson, and then I just was ready to claw my eyes out.

First of all, the storyline in the movie was just atrociously bad and ridiculous, offering nothing of any worth to the audience. And the characters in the movie were bland and mundane, again offering nothing to the audience, unless you enjoy looking at scantily clad women. Then there were the actresses, portraying these stale characters, and they were uniformly unable to perform well; their acting was questionable, their dancing was dubious and they just felt awkward on the screen.

And that leads me to the zombies. This was low budget. Really low budget. And what was going on with the eyes that sometimes were flashing a poorly CGI added white effect only to revert to normal eyes moments later? This was just stupid.

I am not counting "Fetish Factory" as a proper addition to the zombie genre, because this was an abysmal movie. I am rating it a mere one out of ten stars, and it truly is among some of the worst of zombie movies I have ever had to sit fully or partially through. With no intention of returning to finish the rest of this movie, I can honestly say; don't bother with this stinker.

Absolutely a low budget movie. Acting is absolutely top of the shelf, but at the same time I have also seen worse. Story is relaxed and the movie does not really take itself serious. They do unfortunately have some sound troubles where some voices are hard to hear.

No real nudity but you do see a lot of skin. It is not a movie for everyone though. But maybe if you are to zombie movies and don't mind low budget and crazy story it can be your movie.

Not all parts of the movie was interesting but I have seen a lot of Hollywood blockbusters that offered far less than this movie. I found the movie okay and short so it did not outstay its welcome :-)

The only thing that I found enjoyable about this movie was Tristan Risk.
