BUCK WILD is a tongue-in-cheek adventure that turns the buddy comedy upside down while tearing zombies inside out! Craig Thompson's idyllic hunting trip with his two buddies and unstable cousin is wrecked after hearing that his fiancée and best man-to-be have been cavorting behind his back. To make matters worse, Craig's cousin appears to be on the verge of a murderous rampage, while a rapidly spreading Chupacabra virus is transforming locals into the undead. After taking drastic measures to protect themselves, the boys must put aside their differences to survive an insidious hillbilly gang and impending zombie melee. Things are about to get BUCK WILD! (official distributor synopsis)

"Buck Wild" is a classic example of a contemporary horror comedy. It pays some attention to the story, which, however, draws from horror subgenres and is not particularly innovative. It seeks humor in traditional situations approached in a slightly different way, with the aim of entertaining the audience more so than the screenwriters. It is a shame because if one does not laugh at a comedy, something is wrong. And this horror comedy appears to be quite depleted.

I’m surprised, but this redneck/zombie quasi-parody was pretty good fun. It’s a straightforward snack that (in a nice way most of the time) quotes from what it can, has good cinematography and pretty fun (though not likeable) characters. OK for me.
