Wiseguys vs. Zombies (2003)

When a shipment of drugs disappears, Mr. Delbrone sends two goons to retrieve them and kill the thieves.  The thugs, Gus and Freddy Six Times, spend a long time beating some poor guy to get info on where the thieves are hiding.  Gus has a penchant for long boring sililoquies which made me hope he would be the first zombie victim, but to no avail.

Gus and Freddy get the drugs, kill the thieves, and put their bodies in the trunk of the car.  When they end up in a small town, Gus insults the gas station attendant and in turn the Sheriff decides to hand out some Southern justice.

As Freddy tries to smooth over the situation, hothead Gus launches into another obnoxious tirade which causes the Sheriff to impound their car.  When a banging is heard from the trunk, the Sheriff pops the latch and finds zombies who start roaming the town chomping on everyone they can get their hands on.

Turns out the drugs make people into zombies with peanut butter on their faces. Yup, it appears the zombie makeup is peanut butter and grease paint.  There are zombies with blood spurting from their heads as if from a faucet, but it's not as cool as it sounds because this movie is totally freaking awful.  Don't waste your time.  I'm not sure why I did.
