5	''Zombie Bloodbath'' is a trilogy series of ZombieApocalypse films made between 1993 and 2000 by B-movie director Todd Sheets (maker of such fine memorable films such as ''Prehistoric Bimbos in Armageddon City'', ''Bimbos in Time'', ''Bimbos BC'', ''Sorority Babes in the Dance-A-Thon of Death: "The biggest boobiest bimbofest of them all"'' and ''Kansas City Blender Massacre'').

7	In the first movie, a nuclear power planet has gone haywire, and the government decided to cover it up by building a neighborhood over the plant. Then zombies show up. It is rife with NarmCharm and it's a movie that's [[SoBadItsGood so adorably bad that you can't help but love it]].

9	In The second movie, a bunch of cult members kill two guys in a farm house in 1948. Then in 1996 a bunch of murderers escape a prison and start killing people. Then zombies show up I guess.

12	These movies would definitely be classified under So Bad It's Heartwarming if there was such a trope.
13	----
14	!!The series contains examples of:
15
16	* TheArtifact: The female gang members were initially meant to have a bigger part, because Todd Sheets really liked the idea of biker chick gangs fighting zombies. But they got whittled down to just zombie fodder that takes up a few sequences, he mentions that he wishes he just cut them out entirely now.
17	* CaptainErsatz: One character in the 3rd movie made in 2000 is clearly a rip off of Neo from ''Film/TheMatrix''.
18	** With characters in detention that bare an uncanny resemblance to the cast of ''Film/TheBreakfastClub''.
19	* ChainsawGood: Because they're on a budget they decided to use a turkey cutter instead, but they act as though it was a chain saw.
20	* ClusterFBomb: Every character in the third movie swears like a sailor for no reason in every sentence.
21	* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Girl 1: "I haven't seen anything in a while." Girl 2: "Yeah, I haven't seen anything in-...quite a while."
22	* DisproportionateRetribution: In the third movie "Mr. Gordon, Gavin's got John and-" "WHAT? I'M GONNA HAVE TO KILL HIM!"
23	* DrivenToSuicide: A mother kills her children and herself in order to escape the zombies. The zombies that were relatively harmless and were slowly shuffling their way sort of slowly nearby where they were sitting.
24	* FunnyAfro: In the third movie, a black character with an afro comments "This place makes my hair stand up." Cue all the others to stare at him.
25	* {{Gorn}}: was attempted, and considering their budget it was impressive what managed to happen. But [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUc2UKgqrfM watching an actor with a giant mullet and handlebar mustache being killed by a swarm of zombies by having them pull his guts of his butt]] seemed to just leap right into the pits of narm.
26	* GoryDeadlyOverkillTitleOfFatalDeath
27	* {{Handwave}}: Throughout the entire first movie one of the characters brandishes a giant rifle, but never ever actually uses it. Around the end of the movie there was a random scene that seemed to be added in to explain this: He forgot the bullets in his car.
28	* GroinAttack In the second movie, a criminal shoves a gun up a girl's crotch, then ''fires''.
29	* HarmlessVillain: The zombies seem to be relatively harmless so long as you don't just stand there and let them kill you. In one scene they had to get pass an army of zombies on a staircase, and they did this by.... just gently shoving them aside. The zombies groaned and flailed their arms but didn't seem to pay much attention to them.
30	* ICouldaBeenAContender: The janitor in the second movie who gave up his rock and roll life to become a husband and father.
31	* KudzuPlot: The story in the second movie is... cluttered. There's satanic cults, evil scare crows, zombie outbreaks, teens being held hostage by murderous lunatics, other teens being held hostage by completely unrelated ''other'' lunatics, and a former marine sent to save the day because he's the best they got.
32	* LittleMissBadAss: The girl who works for the power plant. She's so tiny and adorable that seeing her jump into the crowd of zombies while squeeling "Come and get me boys" just makes you go D'awwwww.
33	* MalcolmXerox: The black character in the third movie who has an afro, dresses like he's in the 70's, and talks like a JiveTurkey, believing EverythingIsRacist and thinks his other normal black friends act too white.
34	* NotAZombie: After about a 5 minute long scene of ''watching'' her husband being torn apart by having all his organs ripped out of his anus, one woman goes out on her own with her children because he's still out there and might be in danger.
35	* OffTheShelfFX: There was practically ''no'' budget. Fake blood was used with flour, pudding and gelatin. Cave ins were made by shaking the camera and twitching a pie plate filled with dirt over the lense.
36	* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Our zombies lightly jog, and flinch when being attacked, and attack by lightly patting their victim's chest until blood and organs pop out.
37	* RuleOfFun: What the director says his process was in the films.
38	* SeekingSanctuary: In the first film they run inside of a church in the middle of a sermon going on. All of the congregation and the priest pause to look at the intruders for a moment. Then it turns out they're all zombies and instantly attack them.
39	* StrongerWithAge: The old man in the movie managed to make it out the longest. If there was an opposite of a FinalGirl, it would be him.
40	* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: In the third movie
41	--> Goth girl: "So what, are you like, into bondage?"
42	--> Gavin: "Getting any ideas?"
43	--> Goth Girl: "No... I just... saw it in a movie once."
44	--> Nerdy Girl: "Yeah... me too."
45	* TakeThat: Apparently the scene where the zombies are sitting in church is supposed to be a joke about how religious believers are zombies.
46	* ThisIsADrill: Used as a weapon in the third movie.
47	* TheNineties: Neon short-shorts, mullets and flannel shirts tied around your waist? You bet!
48	* TooDumbToLive: The heroes literally run through one crowd of zombies, and directly into another crowd standing just a few feet next to them. There were only two groups of zombies standing around in an otherwise completely empty field and they still ran into that ONE other pile.
49	* UnexplainedRecovery: One young girl who apparently worked for the power planet just wont die. She gets surrounded by swarms of zombies as a sacrifice ''twice'' and she still came back both times without a scratch or even a hair out of place.
50	* WhosLaughingNow: The zombified principal in the third movie. "Youuuu made fun of meee!"
51	* WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief: When asked why there was a church in an underground nuclear power plant, Todd Sheets said that it's not ''impossible'' that they built one inside it.
52	* ZombieGait: Sometimes played straight, sometimes not. Some zombies can only stumble and shuffle around. Others can lightly jog, tackle people, and hop across small streams of water. Basically the zombies acted like average citizens of Kansas City, Minnesota.
53	* ZombieInfectee: It's a mystery as to where the zombies seem to come from, seeing as how they don't really give this trope a chance. They rip their victims to shreds and eat them. And yet one man who was torn apart and devoured is seen later as a zombie, completely back together again, only with blood covering his face.
