Synopsis (via Letterboxd):
When two bumbling employees at a medical supply warehouse accidentally release a deadly gas into the air, the vapors cause the dead to rise again as zombies.
My Thoughts:
Night of the Living Dead co-writer John Russo split off from George Romero to create his own zombie franchise beginning with this 1980s time capsule of a movie. The movie is set around a medical supply warehouse in Louisville where drums of the toxic gas that causes zombieism were accidentally sent by the military. Remember the Reagan Era 80s when nonetheless the cultural zeitgeist was deeply mistrustful of the military rather than “support the troops?” Naturally, the gas is released affecting not just the warehouse but the nearby cemetery where a group of punks have gathered to party.
The blue collar workers (all of whom seem to be played by familiar character actors that I cannot place where I’ve seen them before) get most of the best lines. There’s the wiseacre Frank training the new hire Freddy, their hapless boss who makes all the wrong decisions when he takes charge, and the deadpan mortician Eddie. The punks are funny in that 80s movie punks are always the same over-the-top stereotypes. The girl who strips naked for the entire film is gratuitous though.
And then there are the zombies who just want “BRAIIIIIINSSS!!!” because they stave off the pain of decay (possibly a metaphor for substance abuse?). It’s hard to believe that is the first depiction of zombies craving brains. The idea of zombies who not only talk, but can hold conversations is a bit off-putting, but then again the “Send more cops!” gag is hilarious.
This isn’t a masterpiece, but it’s corny fun with a lot of great one-liners, and probably would be exponentially more enjoyable at a crowded theater screening.

Adi and her band back in Berlin!!
Adi Scotheque crafts lo-fi, heart-first pop built from cheap keyboards, big feelings, and DIY grit. Blending indie sleaze, country roots, and dancefloor melancholy, her songs live somewhere between confession and catharsis. Known for her ecstatically infectious live energy and circus-like band, Adi Scotheque fuses casio-core and unapologetic storytelling on a girl-group foundation – bringing frenzy, fury and farm sounds to every dance floor. Reno-raised and Berlin-based, Adi and her band have recently toured in the EU and are booked for Fusion Festival 2026. Known for her work with Beatfoot, Red Axes, Deaf Chonky – performed on major stages worldwide including Sonar, Exit, Fusion, Wide Awake, Pop-Kultur, ADE Amsterdam and many more.
and surprisingly now they will have their album on vinyl for sale

And if you need any more convincing, Jack White was impressed enough to personally choose them as a support act.loooootsss of fun expected!!

UltraNothing (post-punk / Luxembourg) + Easily Distracted by Ducks (punkrock) im Schokoladen Berlin
Schokoladen, Saturday, November 14 at 07:00 PM GMT+1
UltraNothing is a post-punk band from Luxembourg, formed in 2023. After the disbanding of their former band Office of Weird, Mich and Mig asked Pit whether he'd like to join them on drums in a new, undefined band. After more than a year of creating material and tireless rehearsals, in July 2024 they recorded their debut EP at Holtz Sound Studio and had Julien Rosenberger (L'Autre Oreille Studio) master the 4 tracks. UltraNothing's 10" vinyl EP was released on the 26th October 2024, during a gig at the Mix 'n' Kawa Bar in Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg, with the support of instrumental noise rock band TVESLA and the up-and-coming band FULVOUS.
UltraNothing have nothing to add to the usual, standard litany of "punk" phrases and ideologies: of course, they are anti-racist, anti-fascist, anti-sexist and anti-everything else that discriminates people, however, as they see it, punk slogans and phrases unfortunately didn't leave much of a dent on the institutions and on the main causes of discrimination and suffering of people around the world during the past 50 years. Nevertheless, the trio are very much intent on grinding on ferociously and defiantly to the rhythm of modern fallacy in an empty ode to daily exhaustion, ennui, spleen and existential tiredness.
In 2026, UltraNothing and their friends from the Luxembourgish noise punk band GOFAI decided to collaborate on a joint split LP release. This time round, UltraNothing took a fully D.I.Y. production approach and had their tracks recorded, mixed and mastered by Christophe Rippinger, who also carries out bass duties with GOFAI. The tracks were recorded live on 28th February 2026 at his "Dip Space" studio in Kayl, which also doubles as GOFAI's rehearsal room. UltraNothing's offering in the new split LP consists of five previously unrecorded tracks: four older tunes and a more recent track.
The split LP is due for release on 23rd October 2026, at the Mix'n'Kawa Bar, Esch-sur-Alzette (Belval), Luxembourg.https://youtu.be/H4CazIcVf2Q?is=rR6IGA3hfXOMUR6F

https://ultranothing.bandcamp.com/Die Band Easily Distracted by Ducks liefert tanzbare, experimentelle Punk-Rock-Musik. Die vierköpfige Band aus Berlin spielt seit etwa drei Jahren und liebt es, vor Live-Mengen aufzutreten.
Mit ihren aneckenden Texten haben sie an über zehn lokalen Veranstaltungsorten in Deutschland und England gespielt. Wo sie die Aufregung und Kämpfe des Lebens in Berlin auf die Bühne bringen und der Ansporn herrscht, diese Gefühle in ein gemeinsames Musik- und Tanzerlebnis umzuwandeln.

Ein Blood and Honour Nazi hat einen Punk bei einem Konzert ermordet:
„
Mit dabei war offenbar auch Neonazi R. M.* (55), Spitzname Manole. Er pflegte engste Verbindungen zur rechtsextremen Terrorgruppe Nationalsozialistischer Untergrund (NSU), die in Deutschland zwischen 2000 und 2007 neun Migranten und eine Polizistin ermordete.
M. war unter dem Decknamen «Primus» knapp zehn Jahre als «V-Mann» für den deutschen Verfassungsschutz in der Region Zwickau in Sachsen tätig. Laut Zeugenaussagen beschäftigte er dort zwischen 2000 und 2001 sowohl Beate Zschäpe als auch Uwe Mundlos, beide Teil des NSU-Kerntrios.
