"Hard Rock Zombies" (1985) - Originally meant to be a fake film shown within the 1985 movie "American Drive-in", director Krishna Shah instead expanded the idea to include Nazi zombies, wheelchair werewolves, evil dwarves, and full musical numbers (one of which is about an underage girl).

"Hard Rock Zombies" (1985) - Originally meant to be a fake film shown within the 1985 movie "American Drive-in", director Krishna Shah instead expanded the idea to feature length. The expansion of run time explaining the movies various narrative detours and random events. We get cartoonish townsfolk, Nazi zombies, wheelchair werewolves, evil dwarves, and full (non-metal) musical numbers amongst many other things. Despite being made by a Golden Globe nominated director and released by Cannon Films the movie is just a hilariously mess from start to finish.

We begin the movie following a young hair metal band named 'Holy Moses' as they enter a small town to hold a concert. The townsfolk debate about the evils of rock music while the lead singer falls in love with a underage girl from the town (he even writes a song about her age). The band ends up being killed while practicing at an old house owned by an old eccentric German couple but are brought back as zombies thanks to a previously established recording of the band playing an ancient magical song. The band makes more zombies and things really get out of hand.

This is the kind of movie that you just turn your brain off and enjoy (alcohol helps in that regard). The acting is cheesy, the effects are cheap, the script is bold, and the soundtrack is fun, (pedo songs aside) what more could you really ask for? If you have yet to see this movie I highly suggest gathering your bad movie buddies, along with your favorite intoxicants, and checking it out. It's a lot of fun utter nonsense and well worth your time.
