I would have loved the original concept from William Butler. When I first saw this one available to rent at the video store, I was really excited based on the name, Necropolis which means City of the Dead. Thought we were getting a movie that is set after all those barrel zombies from 3 escaped the facility and took over a city. Then I got home and watched it, and was disappointed.
I've had this movie and Rave to the Grave for YEARS they were included in a multi pack dvd set I got from Walmart and to this day I've never watched either of them lol!
ROTLD Necropolis has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. If anyone is interested: the Japanese DVD release actually has a lot more gore than the US release.
Hell, I mean I’d still like to see that
I love the OG trilogy and eventually my curiosity got the better of me and I watched Necropolis and Rave to the grave and was just baffled. I couldn’t help but laugh at how many times they did the gag of the main character about to shoot a zombie and it being out of ammo 🤦♂️
Necropolis is so awful, but I’ve loved it ever since I saw it on TV as a kid lol. Syfy channel was the place to be, as a kid.
I rented it probably a year later at blockbuster. I still have a tad tinge of that nostalgia. It must’ve been the summer of 06.
Honestly keep it original the return of the living dead 1
The biggest problem with Necropolis and Rave to the Grave is they're cash grabs. Necropolis is a bargain bin Resident Evil clone, what with the evil corporation doing undead experiments. I feel bad for William Butler and Aaron Strongoni because they had a good idea going with that initial script, but the constant back and forth between studios, combined with the producer interference, doomed this movie.
I know the writers of the "Complete History of ROTLD" and even Beverly Randolph have tried getting a new ROTLD off the ground, but it hasn't happened due to a ongoing legal battle between Tom Fox's family and the producers of the later installments.
Yea absolutely. It’s crazy how things turn out sometimes in the movie business isn’t it?
I've been looking for this and Rave to the Grave forever for completions sake. Can never seem to run into them.
Amazon has the dvds
@@PlanetCHH Niiice, thanks. I figured they were oop af and never even looked there, lol. Just been checking my used book stores and stuff.
I would rather watch Children of the Living Dead than Necropolis or Rave. Great video CHH!
Damn Jess, are you alright?
@@PlanetCHH LOL.....No.
I actually like this movie. It's got a cool vibe, It's fun a time. I'm not a huge fan of Rave to the Grave though. I couldn't get through that film, It just didn't hold my interest. Necropolis is cool, I like it.
Trust me I have seen worse zombie movies than Necropolis. Good review and cool video Christian!👍
Thank you!
I think "House Of The Dead" falls into that category. Pure horrendous dog sh*t.
@@treyartson6788 yes that one's terrible! Have you seen Zombie Nightmare? Ugh...😭
@@treyartson6788house of the dead is fire 😂
I watched this the other night on Tubi TV and it was an okay movie the best part about it was the zombie parents man I wish they had come out with NECA action figures for those two the effect were decent too and seeing Peter coyote in the film was pretty cool also It's a shame what they did to William Butler's screenplay the movie could have been much better
Man I don't even think I knew there was a 4th and 5th installment in this franchise
Oh, we’re not done yet.
The cyborg zombies were cool
I’ve gotta grab a new copy of that book. I never got to any of the 4 & 5 stuff.
I hope it’s not too hard to find now
@@PlanetCHH I think it's pretty readily available on ebay.
I was trying to find a zombie movie I saw once on tv like 20 years ago and was hoping it was this one, but i don't think so. Do you know of any zombie movie where a guy says "tell my mom (or grandma) I love her" then sacrifices himself to fight zombies (maybe they were by an elevator?)
William Butler also wrote and directed the Demonic Toys spinoff, Baby Oopsie. I sat next ti him during the premier at TFW 2021
Damn, that sounds cool
“Let’s make a $30 million genius movie that restarts the ROTLD franchise and is awesome” “Nah, let’s make a small budget film about Ukrainian freak zombie warriors that sucks”
And this is why I don’t write screenplays anymore.
The German release has more gore & based on a comment in here apparently so does the Japanese version. As for my opinion, I like "Necropolis" more than part 2, but not more than part 1 or 3. As for "Rave To The Grave", my memory of that movie isn't very good. I was a little surprised you didn't mention Peter Coyote by name. He's been in a lot of movies & TV shows. You also didn't mention the director Ellory Elkayem who's best known for "Eight Legged Freaks".
Fair enough. I’ve seen eight legged freaks but I just didn’t think to add that in to the story I was telling at the time.
I really enjoy the return of the living dead movies never saw necropolis though doesn't look to appealing to me
Lol, you mean my review didn’t make you order it immediately!?
@@PlanetCHH oh I wish come to think of it I think I actually might have necropolis somewhere in my movie collection
What have we become here on Brutal Planet!? Paired with Dragontown, great Coop era.
Dude, massive fist bump 👊
Might as well have made hybratech umbrella and made this Resident Evil movie its closer to Resident Evil than return of the living dead
I always thought there was the skeleton of a much better movie inside necropolis
This video has me fucking hyped!
Hype train baby! Get ready to “rave”
@@PlanetCHH at least tar man is decent in r2tg!
Great job on this CHH. I know you are passionate about this franchise. Super detailed reviews . I've never seen the movie. But love the franchise! Like some of them bands thou . And yes Alice Cooper is a Amazing talent . He is POISON! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
what is that ambient music in the background of this vid? it is majestic. it fits the atmosphere well, i feel like i've heard it before, or at least something similar, i am thinking it's from a Silent Hill soundtrack or something but i'm not sure what it is and am having a hard time finding it. I agree that ROTLD 4 and 5 were meh, they weren't terrible but just not as impactful as 3 with the romance angle and the comedy of part 1. I liked part 2 pretty well, i like them all but 4 and 5 unfortunately didn't land as well. I am not a horror movie superfan but ROTLD is def my fav horror movie franchise. i made the mistake of watching part 3 when i was like 8 years old by myself at like 1 in the morning on cinemax or whatever and the part where the mexican guy got his head ripped off but it was still attached by his spine by like 2 feet hovering over his body roaming around freaked me out, i kept thinking if i went near the windows i would see that freaky shit outside and was legit scared. i like the practical effects, i think they nailed it on ROTLD the perfect blend of realism of decaying corpses blended with campiness to keep it just right. practical effects and getting creeped out is way better than like Resident Evil movie jump scares where a lamp falls randomly and makes a loud noise, those type of scary movies are lame!!
Just want to let all your viewers know that Necropolis is free on UA-cam video 😃😃😃
Am I crazy or did they spell trioxin 245 wrong on the barrels in the beginning of this movie, did it actually say trioxyn 5? I understand it's just a crapy made for TV movie so it's naturally going to disregard the lore of the first movies in favor of traditional zombie tropes but misspelling isn't only lazy it's stupid.
I’ve never seen this one, vaguely remember getting Rave from the library once.
The first one is enough
I've never even heard of this movie. But it looks like a absolute turd . To me there are only two good zombie movies , Night of The Living Dead and the remake . You where to kind to Godsmack, I seen them live years ago and they where just as awful as their music.
I saw them live with rob zombie. Zombie was fun, great live show, very entertaining. Godsmack they just stood there. Very boring.
rave was a fun one 🤷🏻♀️
Well, my video is coming soon! Maybe I’ll like it
This doesn’t bring me joy.
The last three rold films were all equally subpar.
💀
Part 4 and 5 were absolute garbage. they have no place in the series. 3 was pushing it.
