...Rodriguez's feature jumbles the zombie, cop, political thriller and rural-trash-melodrama genres. Like The Night of the Living Dead, it's about a random bunch of people trapped in a shack and beset by flesh-dripping, flesh-eating zombies. In the spirit of that 1968 classic, Planet Terror celebrates the community of the still-living, except that Rodriguez's humans do a lot less grousing than George Romero's did. It's also got deadly gases, go-go dancers, pretty disgusting shots of men with extreme gonadal anomalies, and Bruce Willis as the man who killed bin Laden...

...five multi-colored blobs morphing up the court without regard for who is whom and whether the ball (a blurry orange sphere resembling the old “ball on fire” trick that made the antiquated “NBA Jams” video game such a classic) finds the bottom of the net. I’ve even resorted to listening to online radio broadcasts inside WiFi cafés in Buenos Aires, frightening other (normal) patrons with random fist-pumps or involuntary gasps at plays like Ron Lewis’ three-pointer to send Ohio...
