''[[Zombie Nightmare]]'' is a 1987 Canadian film starring Adam West and Jon-Mikl Thor.
Our film opens in a time supposedly in the 1960s or so, showing us a softball game led by a beefy guy named Bill (played by director John Fasano). Bill's the center of activity in the community, and he's even brought his family (wife and young son Tony) to the game. Unfortunately, a couple ne'er do wells are also in attendance and decide to stalk and assault Molly Mokembe, a young Haitian woman (played by Manoushka). Bill stops the crime in progress, saving her, but the two thugs fatally stab him and flee, all in front of his son.
Line 10:
Like ''[[The Horror of Party Beach]]'' and ''[[The Incredibly Strange Creatures]]'', this is another movie gadding about calling itself a horror musical, but unlike those two, it's got even less on which to stake the claim; there is plenty of incidental metal music on the soundtrack, but no actual musical numbers. Oh, and [[Adam West]] is in it, too. Neat, huh?

* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Being rock-stupid makes it laughably easy to get killed by a zombie. Here are good ways, demonstrated by three particular brain donors:
** Pass by the exit sign when being pursued by a zombie. Also make sure to stop while still in the same room as said zombie.
