Eat Me: A Zombie Musical is not referred to as such in the movie's opening titles. Rather, it was called "Eat Me: The Musical," which I would like to suggest as the more official title for the movie. It is also more appropriate because, minor spoilers, zombies don't appear until 3/4 of the way through the movie, so if you're only buying Eat Me for the zombies, then you might be disappointed. Otherwise, you might find it to be an enjoyable watch.
Eat Me: The Musical has become somewhat of a cult classic, most recently spotlighted by horror host Count Gore De Vol, and won the Fright Night Film Festival award for Best Soundtrack in 2009. In many ways, Eat Me reminds of other band movies like the Monkees' Head or Frank Zappa's 200 Motels. It has a great soundtrack and there are a lot of legitimately funny moments, but it's best to turn off your brain when watching it and try not to think too deeply about it. It's confusing and doesn't seem to follow any sort of distinct plot, so if you're not a fan of movies like that, then this movie probably isn't for you. Still, Eat Me did with a low budget and a lot of time what other big budget band movies wish they could do.
I rate it eight out of ten.

Plot summary
The 7th Circle of Hell is for those who commit violence against art (grifters, hypocrites and falsifiers, too). They sit on flaming sand ... and drive a church bus across the heartland to a midnight rave where Death awaits, disguised as a cheese sandwich. Eat Me: The Musical is Tommy meets Dawn of the Dead - the epic odyssey of Peter (AKA John Lonely),the reluctant Rock n' Roll Messiah of the Great Vulvalution. He drives into the afterlife, goaded on by a talking chicken, seduced by Satan's Ex-Wives and tested by Scientologists. The highway to hell is littered with challenges: vegan redneck cannibals, homicidal Little Red Riding Hoods and horny zombies in bondage gear, plus the 40 oz Jesus, Jimmy the Buddha Dog and a Star Trek landing party. Fornication conquers all. Eat Me features performances by The Falsies, metal band Thismeansyou and the acoustic vibe of Thrum - with walk-on performances by singer/songwriter legend Devon Sproule and Richelle Claibourne of Soul Sledge. The song list includes: Asian Panties, Satan is a Good Lay, We've Killed for Less and Are You Sexually Available? video Includes: *?
