Girls between the age of 15 to 17 all seem to die mysteriously and turn into flesh-eating zombies and the only way to put them to a final rest is for them to be re-killed by their loved ones and hacked up into 165 pieces. Then we have some girls "army" that are out to destroy the Stacy's which is what they call these girls once turned into a zombie.
Stacy: Attack of the Schoolgirl Zombies is a really weird Japanese b-movie, so bad that it's actually turns good at times. Bad or not at least one thing is sure, this movie is so not for everyone as you have to be willing to sit through some really horrible and over-the-top acting and I guess most people choose to see it just because of the fair share of gore and splatter it offers.
So the movie is basically about the destroying and killing of zombie girls, and like I said before, we get a hell of a lot of splatter and gore. Only problem is that it is quite the low budget movie, and the effects aren't that nice to watch, and has a tendency to look just too cheap.
To appreciate a movie like Stacy you have to take it for what it is; a very unserious splatter movie. If you go in watching the movie believing it's something else, then you'll probably come out very disappointed.
 
The acting is so bad that I can't even begin to tell you. Also some of the characters in it are bound to give you a slight headache.
If you take it for what it is, it actually has it's moments, and offers some humour at times as well, but if the humour actually works or not is a different story. I can't recommend it though, but Stacy sure is crazy.
