It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This clearly was met to be a funny parody? Oh, please tell me it was, because its so BAD from every aspect that after the stink of bad becomes affirmed and firmly ingested into your brain, this film is dead, not even funny. So camp that it wreaks.Oh, well, and they say, we all can't make films, wrong. This film shows even the childish and deeply retarded can succeed in film torture.OK, say, I'm 12 years old, a bit bored and nothing else to do. This film becomes a center piece for wasting my perfect 12 year old's day off from school.Sad.

i myself love horrors films, i also love "horror" films there *is* a difference "horror" films are the ones you can laugh about, now raiders of the dammed is a "horror" film. ---------------effects----------------------- the effects in this film are really bad, the thing is, they don't try to be good, they just do the best they can. --------------acting------------------------- the acting in raiders of the dammed is really quite bad, the actors and actresses are clearly untrained or not trained well in any form of fighting there is one scene where she kicks someone over and its a pretty pathetic kick giving the zombie ample time to react.but all in all raiders of the dammed is a film that most people would hate and i recommend it to anyone who will laugh along with it. (my friends are the people i would) there aren't many people who'd like this sort of film and my mates are the only people i know that would.

Anything really that makes you presume this film is anything better than the reviews its given is false. I've never witnessed a crappier film in my life and I've seen Windfall. I know its working on a limited budget and it shows but if this is true don't make a film using so many poor special effects and rubbish acting , better yet Don't MAKE THE FILM !!!.My assumption of zombies and any assumption of zombies made in any other film is shot down by the intelligent ones in this film, who don't even seem like zombies , just humans with really bad rashes. I don't claim to be the expert on zombies but I'm adamant that they were never meant to be intelligent or in the case of Land of the Dead only primitive levels of intelligence.In my eyes this film is a disgrace and should never have been made , especially when you compare it to other films.Its not even good for people who like small studio films, it fails on nearly every attempt , the acting is either hollow or over acted , no one strikes a balance. I couldn't believe how i watched it , in fact i didn't even bother to see the end as I refused to surrender more minutes of my life towards a nonsensical storyline that just seemed to drag on and on.Only my passion for hating this film made me write this and i feel it is my duty to steer you away from it. Don't try and watch this film thinking that maybe it will be funny crap and you can have a laugh at it , the action is slow moving and just poor. Only a ridiculous amount of drugs and alcohol could possibly make this film entertaining. Avoid this film like the plague , or be DAMNED FOR ALL ETERNITY ! (or at least for however it runs for)

Raiders of the Damned is set in a post apocalyptic world in which a military virus named Agent-9X has created a horde of flesh eating zombies & starts above a 'Restricted Area, Government Quarantined Zone' where a military helicopter flies high above the flesh eating, rotting zombies below. Dr. Wells (Elijah Murphy) & his glamorous assistant Stephanie (Amanda Scheutzow) are conducting research when the zombies fire some rocks from a catapult which downs the helicopter. They are captured at the request of the head zombie dude Colonel Crow (Thomas Martwick) who needs Dr. Wells scientific knowledge as he & his zombie army are rotting away inside the restricted walled off area. A few military survivors also need Dr. Wells to try & put a stop to the airborne virus & the zombies it created, the boss-man Lewis (Richard Grieco) sets a small platoon up consisting of Gena Kane (Laura Zoe Quist), Trejo (Laurie Clemens), Flex (J.C. Austin) & the squad leader Crenshaw (Gary Sirchia) who leads them into the restricted area to do battle with Colonel Crow & his zombies in a bid to retrieve mankind's only hope Dr. Wells...Produced & directed by Milko Davis I have to say that Raiders of the Damned is a terrible film, of that there is no doubt but I saw signs here that at least the filmmakers tried. The script by Mike Ezell is certainly ambitious as it moves along at a pretty good pace & involves helicopters, futuristic weaponry, fights, shoot-outs, talking & thinking zombies, a post apocalyptic world, underground military bases & more but I'm afraid that the filmmakers just didn't have the resource's available to do the decent sounding premise justice. The character's are of the worst clichés you can imagine & the script is simply not fleshed out or expanded upon enough to tell a satisfying & coherent story, I mean how did us humans manage to get all the zombies in one place behind a giant wall? Why don't the military just drop a bomb on them? If all the zombies are trapped inside the restricted area why does everyone live three mile below the surface, why doesn't everyone just move to another continent or something & let the zombies literally rot there? Because of the airborne disease? Well why can't they use protective suits with breathing equipment? Is this film set in the future? No mention of it is made but they seem to have laser guns & futuristic gadgets but still need to use horses to get around? There are so many plot holes & unclear ideas in Raiders of the Damned that it becomes frustrating to watch as it seems to change things all the time. The fact that when you consider all these loose threads it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Oh & the underground military survivors divided into two groups, the army & the scientists, reminded me of the infinitely superior Day of the Dead (1985) as it will you...Director Davis was obviously working on a tiny budget & just tries to do too much, from having helicopters shot down which end up looking like graphics in a bad Playstation game to zombie make-up which isn't even glued onto the actors faces properly as you can see their mouths move but their fake chins stay perfectly still. The locations used seem like derelict warehouses & a local wood. There is no atmosphere, tension & there's definitely no scares either & the action scenes are so bland even they become boring. The gore is none existent, a couple of decapitations & a quick slit throat.The budget for this must have been virtually zero, technically Raiders of the Damned is very poor from start to finish in just about every department. The acting wasn't too bad actually & I quite liked Martwick as the main zombie. On another note is this the depths that Richard Grieco has now stooped to to find work? This has to be an all time low even for him!Raiders of the Damned is crap to be sure, it's as simple & straight forward as that but I got the sense that everyone involved tried which ultimately wasn't good enough for me, or you, to waste 90 plus minutes of my life on this but I'll give them some credit for that at least. When all said & done though Raiders of the Damned is one to avoid I'm afraid.
