Toxic Trash by M. Ryan Fairbanks (Cleveland, Ohio) 1 Stars
January 22, 2010
So you didn't think it could possibly get any worse than Zombie Lake or Oasis of the Zombies? Neither did I. That is until I saw this, Toxic Zombies. A group of hippies are secretly growing a field of marijuana out in rural middle-of-nowhere, that is until the government finds out and sends a plane to cropdust their stash with a deadly pesticide. Unfortunately the pesticide has an undesirable side effect of turning anyone exposed into zombies, who then roam the woods dispatching of a few campers, etc. This, ladies and gentleman, is what we call "unwatchable". Toxic Zombies is the grim result of a group of friends heading out to the woods for a weekend to make a "movie" armed with a camera, a tube of stage blood, and a LOT of weed. It is not even enjoyable in a low budget or campy sense, it is quite literally a complete waste of time. Anyone with even a shred of intelligence would find this deplorable. Toxic Zombies is one strictly for the brave, masochistic, or very very bored.

Interesting/sad bit of trivia... by Diego Baz (California) 3 Stars

From www.worldsgreatestcritic.com's review: "To start with, [Toxic Zombies] is not a 'cash cow,' nor was this [Chuck McCrann's]...first foray into a larger film career. McCrann was a lawyer, a graduate from both Princeton University and the Yale School of Law, which is impressive to anyone except a Harvard Man (which I'm not... but LSU isn't a bad school either, man). He was also a Senior VP for a legal firm important enough to have offices in the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. Unfortunately, Charles McCrann did indeed show up for work on September 11, 2001, which is why he's no longer with us." I didn't know this - did anyone else? Thanks, www.worldsgreatestcritic.com!

THE WORST ZOMBIE MOVIE EVER MADE!!! by FILMCRITIC2000 (FROM BEYOND) 1 Stars
July 16, 2009
I HAVE MANY ZOMBIE MOVIES IN MY COLLECTION... YES ZOMBIE LAKE AND OASIS OF THE ZOMBIES WAS HORRIBLE AND WHEN I SAW THEM I THOUGHT ID NEVER SEE ANYTHING WORSE. WELL HERE IT IS... TOXIC ZOMBIES... I WOULDNT PICK THIS UP IF I SAW IT LAYING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD STILL SHRINK WRAPPED. I PAID $16 FOR THIS TO ADD IT TO MY ZOMBIE COLLECTION. I GUESS I PAID THAT JUST TO SAY I HAVE THIS MOVIE. IT IS SO HORRIBLE, I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND CAN SAY THAT THIS WAS ANYTHING BUT A PIECE OF TRASH. THE DIRECTOR MUST HAVE BEEN SPRAYED WITH THOSE TOXINS HIMSELF WHEN HE SHOT THIS... AVOID THIS MOVIE, IT IS TERRIBLE. WORSE THAN ZOMBIE LAKE.

It's alright by ZombieLuv (NY) 3 Stars
February 28, 2008
This is one of those cheesy classics from the 70's. I enjoyed it somewhat. Basically to sum it up...A group of people growing dope get dusted with a chemical meant to kill their crop. They turn into flesh eating zombies and try to kill campers in the same area. It was alright, it didn't take too long to get to the juicy parts. Although, in my opinion it is NOT worth the Amazon price of 21.00. I'd probably pick it up for 5.00 maximum.
