Retardead is right between the unprofessional style which guys in my high school class have even surpassed and all that stupid acting and writing this dosen't even a offend me about the name even thought I do have a minor case of cerebral palsy and do know alot of mentally disabled people... this offends me that this is even being made

just because of the sundance circa 1990 feel to it

Yeah, we knew that was comin'. We even thought of changing the name to InfecDEAD. But then we thought, "What movie are people going to remember ten years from now? InfecDEAD or RetarDEAD?" We think the later. Also, I wouldn't knock the filmmaking until you see the movie. It's hard to tell from the trailer because of the compression. Truth is we spent five years on this thing. This wasn't something we just peed out in a weekend with a couple of friends in our back yard. Also, this ain't no Troma movie. We're not out to make fun of special kids. That would be a cheap gag. And that's not what we're about. The kids are the victims in this, not the punchline. -Rick (co-director of RetarDEAD and Monsturd)

I'm going with the majority here to say that this movie was extremely entertaining. I saw it twice! If you missed it, get the DVD. It's meant to gross you out and make you laugh at the same time. RetarDEAD is better than most low budget and big budget slasher movies out there!
