WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Tango and Cash Pure, unadulterated 80s trash - somehow featuring Robert Vaughan, who must have had urgent bills to pay at the time. Regular folks need not apply, only 80s trash fanatics.As others have observed, there's no connection whatsoever with the OG CHUD. It's just a zombie spoof. Low budget B movie. Absurd plot, of course. Hilarious theme song. Bud the Chud. So funny. Hearing Vaughan say "bud the chud" as dialogue is even funnier. It's not the worst 80s movie out there by a country mile, but it's not the best by the same margin. Enjoy!
jeremy-david-kuehnau This is a terrible, low budget horror flick that has nothing to do with the original film series either. Don't get me wrong, I love horror films, zombie flicks, I enjoy b-horror films and horror comedy. The issue is, this film isn't funny and it's hardly a horror film. And for a film that is supposed to be about a cannibalistic bioweapon, there is a complete and utter lack of gore or violence (or even blood for that matter), which is a key ingredient for these sort of crummy, low budget horror films. I have no idea how they managed to get a 'R' rating for this film. Without a ounce of blood on screen and only mild swearing, this has got to be one of the dumbest, 'PG' zombie flicks I have ever seen. Whoever wrote this crap and directed it should be ashamed. It's like one of the worst, half-arsed PG versions of a horror movie I have ever seen in my life.
Mr_Censored If you happen to come across "C.H.U.D. II - Bud the Chud" and are expecting a logical sequel to the 1984 cult-classic, you will only walk away disappointed. If, however, you are in the mood for a nice, healthy portion of late-80's cheese, then this zombie-spoof just may be the ticket! After two bumbling teenage buddies (Brian Robbins and Bill Calvert) misplace a cadaver intended for their high school science class, they find a replacement in Bud (Gerrit Graham). Bud is a C.H.U.D. (which, if you recall the first film, stands for Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers) and seeing as how he is the last of his kind, the government sees fit to stuff him away in a minimum security facility in a podunk little town. The two pry the titular Chud from the facility with minimal effort, and after killing the family dog and clogging the toilet, Bud strolls through town, turning anyone and everyone he comes across into a like-minded zombie, on the prowl for a little fun and a little flesh.This film is ridiculous, that's for sure. Whether it's the goofball dialog, the "Thriller" inspired dance number or the theme song that accompanies Bud, there is hardly a moment where it looks like anyone took what they were doing seriously when making this film. It has a real fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants spirit that maybe made its producers and distributors nervous, but nevertheless, translates to a gloriously goofy good time. Vibrant performances are in abundance, with everyone from seasoned actor Robert Vaughn, who viciously chews up the scenery, to the beautiful Tricia Leigh Fisher, the supportive girlfriend who finds herself the object of Bud's affection. Go into this one with expectations of a care-free good-time and you'll likely find "C.H.U.D. II - Bud the Chud" to be a blast.
Michael_Elliott C.H.U.D. 2 (1989) BOMB (out of 4) The original C.H.U.D. (Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Dwellers) movie has a rather strong cult following but I found the movie to be pretty horrid when I watched it a few years back so I didn't have very high hopes of this sequel, which it seems everyone really hates. I've read the screenplay was originally suppose to be the second sequel to The Return of the Living Dead and it seems true since this film is very similar to the first sequel to that film. In this movie, Robert Vaughn plays an Army nut who wants the last remaining C.H.U.D. to stay alive but it eventually breaks out of its little jail and goes on a killing rampage. Don't you just love a cannibal movie without one drop of blood? Don't you love a teen horror flick without any nudity? As you can tell by my BOMB rating, I want nudity and gore in this type of film and I got neither but I also got one of the worst horror/comedies I've ever seen. This movie is deadly dreadful from start to finish with some of the poorest written jokes I've heard from any movie. The comedy is horrid but the horror elements are even worse. Without question one of the worst horror films from the 1980s and that's saying a lot considering how many bad ones were released.
