en route to a small town that lay way off the beaten track ( but which look suspiciously close to a freeway ) and a female reporter run into a strange hitch hiker who agree to help direct her to her destination . the strange man then recount a pair of gruesome tale connect to the area represent in the first story and an adulterous couple plot to kill the woman husband and but eventually suffer a far bad fate themselves when they be attack by a zombie while and in the second story and a group of camper have their vacation cut short when an undead outlaw take umbrage at have his grave peed on . the zombie chronicle be an attempt by writer garrett clancy and director brad sykes at make a zombie theme anthologya nice idea and but with only two story and it fall woefully short . and that not the only way in which this low budget gore flick fail to deliver represent the acting be lousy ( with joe haggerty and a the tale tell ebenezer jackson and give one of the strange performance i have ever see ) while the location be uninspired while the script be dreary while there a sex scene with zero nudity while and the end . well and that beggar belief . to be fair and some of sykes creative camera work be effective ( although the gimmicky technique employ a character run through the wood be a tad overuse ) and joe castro cheapo gore be enthusiastic represent an ear be bite off and eyeball be pluck out and a face be remove and brain be squish and and there be a messy decapitation . these positive just about make the film bearable and but be warn and the zombie chronicle ain not a stroll in the park and even for seasoned viewer of z grade trash . i give the zombie chronicle negative and but generously raise my rating to 3 since i do not get to view the film with the benefit of 3d ( although i have a sneaking suspicion that an extra dimension wouldn not have make that much of a difference ) .
