1- If you wanna kill a zombie that has thrown an axe toward you just jump and shoot
2- When you wanna blow up a dynamite just stand infront of the house that's the only shelter from the walkin deads!
3- Radios and Cell phones don't work around zombies
4- If you see your friend slashin zombies with a sword in a robe he is probably fake!
5-There are some rumors that a cross can be helpfull against zombies.
6- Zombies use some sort of a wireless technology for their nerves system
7- If you see a dangerous fish in a tank don't try to shoot him with a gun cause you might wake up zombies.
8-Old books can help you

284-It's possible to use practically an entire crate full of ammo in just one 10 minute fight, shooting the same zombies in slow motion, and super speed, where half the whole fight is flashbacks, and unreleted game images...I know that sentence didn't make much sense but...Uwe Boll sucks.

reply

285- You must speak "Mexican" to understand spanish ¬¬

286. If your boyfriend disappears when you are swimming, instantly assume that he has wandered off into the rusty old shack deep in the woods, and not the great big rave that is going on just round the corner.

287: You can learn absolutely everything about a highly complex zombie creating virus by glancing briefly into a 18th century microscope
288: When you're a crazy Spanish padre, you really struggle to make out people's faces, even though they're standing in quite bright lights.
289: In zombie films, no-one needs a bra. At any point. On anyone. Ever.

306) Apparently the tagline lied to you it said "The dead walk, you run" because most (not all) but most of the zombies run in the movie
307) If you don't listen to someone then it's odvious you have a hearing disability right?

308) Generators don't make any noise.

309) DJs are careful to take the needle off the record before being eaten by zombies.

Seriously, how much creepier would it have been if they'd followed the sound of a faltering generator through the woods to the party site? As they got closer they'd hear the "sput.... sput.... sput..." over the sound system from the record that's still spinning with the needle down.

310) There are wide clear dirt roads on uninhabited islands for helicopters to land on.

310) Zombies are good at landscaping, although they don't bother to sweep up dead leaves. (Otherwise, in 300 years there'd be freaking huge trees growing through the House.)

311) Uwe Boll movies can still be a lot of fun if you have a Servodrive Contrabass subwoofer and choose the DTS soundtrack.

312) The world would have been far better off if this movie had not been made, and instead a fraction of the budget was used to mix new sound effects with more bass into old movies like Dawn of the Dead.

313) "House Of The Dead" or "Isla de la Muerte" would be good names for sketchy free outdoor raves.

318) A bullet is powerful enough to blow a zombie's head apart, yet won't hit the person directly in front of them

319) Zombies can only be killed with a bullet to the head, except when they're trying to get on a boat

reply

320) Water Zombies are the same Zombie that make clones of itself to climb up all sides of Kirk's boat

321) When you lose a friend that you just met at a rave a few hours eirler, you go through about 300+ flashbacks in a matter of seconds

285: Muerte. That's spanish for death!

reply

286: Creating a main menu that consists of random video game clips gives a good sign to the viewer about what they're about to watch.

They all die in the end.

Number 100 has got to be that Any asian ravers around you will be wearing a cat suit with the american flag on it AND be good at kicking ass :) god bless liberty!

Liberty was actually one of the reason why I didn't hate this movie as much

What I was thinking during the movie, and found them here:

1. If you wanna kill a zombie that has thrown an axe toward you just jump and shoot.

35: When your friend is screaming for help while getting eaten by zombies, stand there and have a series of flashbacks from everything that led to this point.

70. The fact that the party of the century is deserted means only one thing: MORE BEER FOR US!

71. If your face is knicked in a life or death battle with zombies, your primary concern must be on your appearance.

73. If a girl gets topless and wants to go swimming, the obvious reaction is to fall asleep on the beach.

84. Do not shoot tanks with blood, or zombies might get pissed.

90. It's generally a bad idea to attend a "Rave of the Century" on an island known as the Island of the Dead. You're just asking for trouble.

91. Anybody paying $1000 to get to said rave is stupid and deserves whatever happens to them.

94. Zombies are kinda like trolls in that they hang out under bridges blowing bubbles in the water

114. If zombies surround you, light a stick of dynamite so the door will blow open and screw everyone else inside. You gotta go out with a bang.

149. When a guy throws up on his girlfriend, she'll start laughing and won't find it disgusting at all.

154. Grey shacks on the verge of collapse are the ideal zombie-impenetrable fortress.

181- when legs get cut off you have pink blood, how cool

(skip a few)

340. Rather than just hosting the rave at night, then engulfing swarms of teens and eating or killing them, it's best to allow them to party and rave for a day or so, and then kill them when you're good and ready.

377: Some movies can apparently clear out a entire theater faster than a dude who just ate 15 bean burritos.

There are no stupid comments, just stupid people...

378: Rain behaves differently in zombie-infested islands:
378.1: It can be predicted by wetting your finger and pulling it up in the air
378.2: It may rain heavily in the shore (specifically above the boat), but AT THE SAME TIME not in the micro-climate in the island
378.3: It's perfectly possible to light a cigar under a storm if you just cup your hands a little around the flame.
378.4: Also, it stays lit while you casually shoot zombies climbing to your boat, assuming that after a single shot in the chest they are NOW completely dead
378.5: Raindrops don't alter the still surface of the water, even when it's a storm. They also don't seem to wet clothes or make mud out of dirt

379: It's totally cool when the adapted soundtrack for the main shooting scene includes the name of the movie

380: It's common for houses built hundreds of years ago to have electric light (in the place where Casper dies, shortly after that)

381: Houses of the dead have everlasting candles. They are always lit. But if you just got to one, it's imperative to go to the also everlasting fireplace and light yet ANOTHER candle from the fire

382: Zombies come out of the basement of the house, but never enter it when it's used as a stronghold (even when at the beggining of the movie they do)

383: Zombies may tear apart a solid door with their bare hands, but they wouldn't enter through one of the windows flimsly boarded up

384: If you happen to pull someone in through a window while a bunch of zombies is cutting half of her body, you can just put a loose board against the window, secure it with a plank standing in the flor and leaning against it , hit it with your fist once or twice to make sure it's now impenetrable, and they won't even try to come inside


385: It's very profitable to smug a single machete (it is, according to Kirk, the best weapon) and some flare guns (they are also illegal and very lethal)

reply

386. There is a huge wardrobe somewhere in the island for the ravers where they can change their clothes after turning in to a zombies.

387. After pulling a door shut behind you and piling stuff in front or it, the door is immediately blocked and cannot be opened, even though it opens to the opposite direction.

reply

388. The main bad guy went from decent looking hairless dude to REALLY ugly monster after becoming undead.

389: If you run out of film you can instantly substitute gameplay footage, especially if it's a video-game movie.

reply

390. I liked this movie.

reply

391. The "smart" girl will show how smart she is by criticizing you for not being a cartographer, when she means navigator.

reply

392. In 2003, Jurgen Prochnow and Clint Howard were apparently very low on funds.

393. It actually IS possible for a fight scene full of action to be too long.

394. Judging from the amount of zombies we see, a lot of people went missing when they went to this San Juan island, but no one bothered to investigate until after this rave.

395. Zombies are champion swimmers.

396. Uwe Boll truly earned his reputation.

397. This movie was of much lower quality than home movies I’ve seen made on Fisher Price kiddie cameras. By children. Who were under 10 years old.

398. I need to go to Germany to get my movie made. If Boll can get funds for this hot mess, I darn sure can get something for my student film.

399. I will never ever play the House of the Dead video game. Ever.

400. Sega has extremely poor security for their raves and extremely poor judgement when scouting locations.
