Zombie Strippers (2008)

Director: Jay Lee

Movie review

From Time Out Chicago

The premise is exactly what you’d expect: A zombie escapes from a government lab and winds up infecting strippers. The slavering clientele dig the edgy new acts involving decaying bodies. Lee, who also scripted this proudly low-rent horror comedy, aims for some social commentary about the Bush years, but it’s lost amid the so-so gore and the poorly executed jokes about strippers who read philosophy (“Damn you and your existentialism!” exclaims one exotic dancer). The pieces of something smarter are scattered around the movie, like discarded body parts at a zombie smorgasbord. What the movie lacks is—you guessed it—brains.
