Story: In Freaks of Nature, we welcome you to Dillford, where three days ago, everything was peaceful and business as usual: the vampires were at the top of the social order, the zombies were at the bottom, and the humans were getting along in the middle. But this delicate balance was ripped apart when the alien apocalypse arrived in Dillford and put an end to all the harmony. Now it's humans vs. vampires vs. zombies in all-out, blood-sucking, brain-eating, vamp-staking mortal combat - and all of them are on the run from the aliens. It is up to three teenagers - one human, one vampire, and one zombie - to team up, figure out how to get rid of the interplanetary visitors, and try to restore order to this "normal" little town.

Likes : First of all this is a leave your brain at the door & switch off type movie, that i could see coming as another cult classic that is so over the top stupid & ridiculous you can't help but laugh at.  

Freaks of Nature is blends of horror/comedy/romance/drama with zombie/alien/vampire/human mash up all living together in one town, it kind of works in a really weird way thanks to some strong performance from a likable cast. The movie is insanely gory and bloody with it action sequences, with really interesting premise which continues to deliver that to the end despite some nonsense & really stupid moments along the way.

Bit of a strange role for Vanessa Hudgens to take, but she pulled this of strangely but i feel she could do better in the film industry because she has talent to be big, but the film itself is kind of insane film you would find on the Syfy channel or the horror channel really. But this is a film more suit for those that like these types of film's with the stupid slap stick humour with stupid moments.  

Dislikes : Not that i found it entertaining, but some scene in this film were just ridiculously stupid, its a film you can iver accept it as it is, a mindless horror comedy that you can help but laugh at the stupidity of it.

Overall : Ridiculous comedy horror, with some what entertainment, with a 80s style.

Rating: 4.2 out of 5 for entertainment / 5.2 out of 10 for concept.
