Plot Summary:
This uses the barely released Dr. Shagetz (1975), which involved a mad doctor helping to keep a town of elderly people alive, as its backbone. Around 1983/84 the original film was edited down considerably and many new exploitative scenes were shot (by Mardi Rustam) and added to the works.

This mishmash of footage shot a decade apart was then delivered to video stores in 1987 under the new title Evil Town.

Zombie A-Hole takes place in a world that's a bit different from our own. A realm that teeters on the edge of sleaze and comic book stylized awesomeness. It's Planet Terror meets Sin City meets The Good The Bad and The Ugly. All the men are hard-asses, and all the women are bombshells. Just because vengeance is your way of life doesn't mean you can't look damn sexy while you dole out hearty doses of whoop-ass. Everything is just a bit bigger and more interesting than their real life counterparts. This is a an exploitation flick with a southern gothic flair. Written by Dustin Mills.
